mircea_popescu: i am not aware of a successful restaurant that was built as you describe. you have a) the funes style restaurants, owned and operated by an actual expert chef. these are 50-50 for roi. b) the "prestige" restaurants of very large hotel conglomerates. these always lose money and are the mud from which a sprouts and in which a goes to die. and then you have the roadside diners. and then d) you have the franchises.

mircea_popescu: ok, let's approach it this way : is the point of a "high level language" strictly to clothe cpu instruction set in glyphs people like, or is there an actual substantive function to it beyond ux ?
asciilifeform: possibly mircea_popescu had read my http://www.loper-os.org/?p=46 piece. but in re lisps, there are specific operations that are missing from extant hardware : gc/cons, and boundscheckedarrayaccess. these are clumsily implemented in software.
asciilifeform cannot rightfully apprehend the confusion that leads to this question.
mircea_popescu: but you can in fact make the cpu run the same instruction set as the language allows ?
asciilifeform: not the instructions.
asciilifeform: the addresses are where you diverge from humanreadablelang.
mircea_popescu: humanreadable face on code is a GLYPH. the code is actually code.
asciilifeform: that'd mean 'shuffling the human strings' necessarily.
asciilifeform: lol, as in basic interpreter, actually moving the fucking humanreadable strings around ?
a111: Logged on 2017-08-02 20:04 mircea_popescu: for my own curiosity, what's the state of the art re "MINIMAL cpu design" ? ie, the theory of how many instructions mustg be in a set and why and per-instruction justification and everything ?
asciilifeform: ( and if i were producing $box by the million, i wouldn't deal with these derps and use their weird arch, but have my own asiced. )
mircea_popescu: aha. neah, they sell like NSA sells FG.
asciilifeform: as in buy at digikey or other mainstream supply house .
asciilifeform: yes. but not on open market, is the point.
asciilifeform: what i was looking for, is actual physical off-the-shelf cpu.
mircea_popescu: anyway, there's that thing amateur rocketry kids dfick with, what was it
asciilifeform: ( other than by baking into fpga. which 1) introduces the 'which fpga, again' problem 2) if you have fpga, big enough for sparc, you can make up a SANE arch to go in it
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform this is true, but the fucking correct solution was to take the bs off not to "fix it". aaanyway
mircea_popescu: ie, if you implement 32 register views you're then making a server cpu whereas if you implement 3 you're thereby making an embeddable cpu
asciilifeform: and yes it's ridiculous . but they forced themselves into it by having the window thing at all, is the idea.
mircea_popescu: and the sparc designers imagined allowing this to be between x or y counts as "Scalable"
mircea_popescu: the number of such "register views" aka windows was a per-processor thing
mircea_popescu: they did this dumb shit whereby passing was done by shared registers ; every process or w/e could see 8 proper and 8 shared or such.
asciilifeform: the thing being indexed, gets populated ( or not ) exactly like, e.g., ipv4, or the holes in your pci bus, etc
mircea_popescu: not the register width.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform at issue is the count of "registger windows" that can be implemented.
asciilifeform: the word is this-wide.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: you can't have infinitely elastic registers. there's N bits , physically.
mircea_popescu: leaving aside how "our idea of scalable is to define a number up to 32 and then you can go from 3 to 32 and this is now scaling" hurr.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform ftr, the "register window" spark thing seems the height of idiocy, but what do i know.
mircea_popescu: the usg not holding up to its side of any bargain it ever made -- also surprise. to some people.
asciilifeform: one other gotcha: complexity has a cost.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform so the cost will be epsilon, 0 from real estate and epsilon from heat.
asciilifeform: ( it can lower thermal output, so still makes sense sometimes to have empty. )
mircea_popescu: so the cost will be 0, this is correct.
asciilifeform: correct. but the answers to these depend SEVERELY on the substrate. for instance, if your thing lives in a fpga, not filling it up doesn't make it cycle any faster. so you want to actually use the available gates, if they can be used productively
mircea_popescu: (what is the total cost of this item ? what percentage of that is this new addition ? what is the output of this item ? what percentage of that would the new addition produce ? make these two rations equal, you're done adding parts.)
mircea_popescu: but the decision of whether to have or not have barrel shifter is strictly carried on the cost of it.
asciilifeform: ( or, on the extreme end of things, not having arithmetic other than add-one. as scheme chip did. )
asciilifeform: or the cost of not having a barrel shifter.
asciilifeform: the basic tradeoff is, the fewer the moving parts in cpu, the more constrained is the horse by the switching elements' speed.
mircea_popescu: car gets internal combustion engine NOT because "the needs of the buyer", but because it needs a power plant and that's the better powerplant available. the needs oif the buyer are welcome to adapt.
asciilifeform: there are several known schemes for this.
mircea_popescu: you know, the basis of design and documentation.
mircea_popescu: for my own curiosity, what's the state of the art re "MINIMAL cpu design" ? ie, the theory of how many instructions mustg be in a set and why and per-instruction justification and everything ?
asciilifeform: and the ones in cn also iirc.
asciilifeform: it's what the ru elbrus folx ripped off for elbrus.
mircea_popescu: yep! and all the same things, too. "community", there;'s also a "sparc-climate science".
asciilifeform: at any rate the published opensparc fpga thing actually worx
mircea_popescu: so indeed, nuked very well. they even invented "other things" to be it instead of it.

mircea_popescu: is it documented by the japs at least ?

asciilifeform: apparently they flashed it in from winblowz.
