Precessional kitchens needing enough throughout (e.g. Inn and Out) often have an assembly line because switching is still inefficient.

- Uberphallus 6y agoIf you think about it, it won't leave your brain: McDonalds restaurants are basically CPUs, especially now with the pandemic. Instruction fetch: ordering on the touchscreen. Instruction decoding: each component of the order gets routed to the functional unit that can handle it. Separate functional units: fries, burger flipping, burger assembly, fridge, etc. Superscalar: multiple functional units to do the same operation (flipping, assembly) Pipelines: different phases (fetch/decoding/execution/store in register) happen in parallel for different instructions. Speculative execution: the most common sub-orders (e.g. Big Mac, basic cheeseburgers) are executed before they are ordered and wait in the sub-pipeline (rack slide) until completion. Write to register: take the results from the different funcitonal units and putting them in your bag.
