      Wow, that video is a lecture by one of the leaders of RISC-V. I had no idea there was a RISC-2 and RISC-3, and that they were optimized for SmallTalk and Lisp respectively. Wonder what Alan Kay has to say about RISC-V? He's been banging on about how Intel messed up their chip design, does he approve of RISC-V? Seems like the perfect time to get things done right.

      That was no-way near 15 minutes. Great talk though.

  TIL, IBM 360 is the reason why bytes are 8-bits long. See: https://youtu.be/1FtEGIp3a_M?t=1m49s https://youtu.be/1FtEGIp3a_M?t=1m49s
