Where is Mill CPU? Been almost 10 years since they started talking about architecture, but nothing tangible emerged yet.

- tyleo 5y agoI always appreciate updates on Mill. Their videos are great.
- Sophistifunk 5y agoI asked myself this about 2 weeks ago and went looking. As far as I can tell they're quietly working still.
- mhh__ 5y agoThey're still going, but seeing them semi-complain/semi-get-cold-feet about VC funding on their forum makes me think they might not be totally in tune with reality. From Ivan on the forum "We expected to go out for a funding round (and convert from bootstrap to salary-paying) last spring but, well, 2020. Right now we’re trying to decide when to make a second try at it. The financial market for the likes of us isn’t back yet, and the virus rates are turning up again, which argues for waiting. But the economy and the future market is real iffy, which argues for doing it now. " https://news.crunchbase.com/news/global-vc-funding-unicorns-2021-monthly-recap/ https://news.crunchbase.com/news/global-vc-funding-unicorns-... this suggests there has been a dramatic increase in VC money to be acquired by the right startups. If I were the mill team, I would get their patents nailed down (which I think they have mostly done), then get some token open source projects out there to show what they actually have in their trousers. Then start giving some talks, public presence, things like that. Show what their toolchain and simulator can actually do.
