As someone who has had to endure over a year of very close to the metal (in this case, imagine centuries old, gnarly, rusty random pot metal, maybe) development on a Renesas platform, I'm tempted to think "fewer Renesas products? Awesome!!" but obviously that would be childish.
I'm sorry for all the people hurt by this, fire is no joke.
Edit: added missing words.
- fra 6y agoI’m with you. Renesas SuperH needs to go.
- kmeisthax 6y agoWhat, you don't like having arithmetic and logical left shifts? I thought orthogonality was a good idea :P
- exmadscientist 6y agoThat is indeed a childish sentiment. And yet I completely agree with you. Probably because I've also experienced their products and their... unique... design-in challenges. My deepest sympathies to all the people impacted by this. My [extremely impolite words redacted] to the company.
- jmiskovic 6y agoI used Renesas with GHS debugger. It required _constant_ access to license server. If I used VPN to access another virtual machine the IDE would throw dialog on top of other windows with a countdown. Using GDB CLI after that felt like living in the future!
