That's a very important distinction. The person who made that fatal decision against the objections of many (no, it wasn't Dave) bear much of the responsibility of the death of Transmeta. It was reckless and ultimately a disaster.
- jecel 6y agoIn 1999 I set up a company to develop a VLIW processor that used adaptive compilation (but for Smalltalk bytecodes instead of x86 instructions). I was taken more seriously after Transmeta announced Crusoe, then a lot less seriously when it failed. Even though the reasons for that were not technical, everybody remembers it wrong.
