I wonder how long until software will also need to shift.
The hardware can only become so parallel before the software will have to change to more closely match its reality.
- hinkley 4y agoI think there’s a potential for collaboration between borrow checkers and more aggressively NUMA architectures, but the problem is you still have to run commercial operating systems on any chips you make. That’s less of a problem for embedded systems and controllers, but then you lose a lot of the value as well.
