    Technical Lead for SoC Architecture at Nokia, answers the question "Is RISC-V the future?"

    No, RISC-V is 1980s done correctly, 30 years later.

    It still concentrates on fixing those problems that we had in 1980s (making instruction set that is easy to pipeline with a simple pipeline), but we mostly don't have anymore, because we have managed to find other, more practical solutions to those problems.

    And it's "done correctly" because it abandons the most stupid RISC features such as delay slots. But it ignores most of the things we have learned after that.

    ARMv8 is much more advanced and better instruction set which makes much more sense from a technical point of view. Many common things require much more RISC-V instruction than ARMv8 instructions. The only good reason to use RISC-V instead of ARM is to avoid paying licence fees to ARM.

    Will new in stock $400 (above entry level) GPUs ever become the new normal again?

    I don't know if these problems will ever be resolved, I think availability will be fixed worst case scenario 2026, but I worry by then they're using the perfect storm of excuses to raise prices and once demand and supply stabilize, I worry prices might be stupid high forever because I worry by the time that happens, the consumer will see stupid high prices as "the new normal".

    How is "exclude-then-augment" different from "Substituting" as mentioned in: Baldwin & Clark's Design Rules : The Power of Modularity.

    I understand the reason for presenting two separate operators: Augment and Exclude. However, I don't get why there is another operator Substituting, while it could simply be combination of Augment and Exclude.

    P.S. I belong to Architecture Engineering and Construction Industry. I was hoping to get a fresh insight into Modularity by reading texts from different fields. Any insights would be much appreciated.
