Are you saying you don't want your CPU to have SIMD/vector capabilities, or you want it to have a limited SIMD instruction set without the extra flexibility that AVX-512 brings, or have you wildly misinterpreted the headline (twice?) to assume that AVX-512 adds special-purpose instructions for Unicode conversions?
- tedunangst 4y agoAny instructions beyond NAND are clearly bloat.
- stingraycharles 4y agoI think the parent must not understand what SIMD/vector operations are, and probably thinks there is native Unicode support in the CPU. At least, that’s my most favorable interpretation of his critique.
