when I program, I have those pieces of paper around with register allocation tables (1970s-style). Would you please make a video or tutorial demonstrating you

Would you please make a video or tutorial demonstrating you doing this? Because that's awesome.
- jwr 13y agoHmm, I'm not quite sure if you're ironic or not? Because it sure feels backwards to be doing that. And the guys next door who program Texas Instruments DSPs roll on the floor laughing -- they write linear assembly for their VLIW chips and the assembler composes the VLIW instructions, takes care of register allocations, and even reorders branch instructions as needed. I feel like using a chisel next to guys with jackhammers.
- erichocean 13y agoNot ironic, I'd love to see it too. I like knowing how things were done originally. :)
