   Thanks for posting this here :) One thing I forget to mention in the article is that the RISC-V Vector Extension doesn't really have to be used to compute long vectors. In theory you could set a vector length of 4 and depending on the

   Sigh, I really hope you're wrong. I can't stand the new keyboards (sticking to a last-gen Macbook Air) but the only thing worse than those keyboards are the official iPad keyboard folios from Apple. I'd seriously rather use t

   By coincidence I started a new blog a few days ago and my first article is about the SIMD Instructions Considered Harmful post from a power efficiency perspective... maybe I should post it separately on HN? :) https://massivebott

   I completely agree in principle (some applications are good fit for traditional long vector processing, but it's a terrible fit for others). However the RISC-V Vector Extensions basically let you use the processor in "SIMD mode&qu
