Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away
-Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
- I discovered that
foo,bar, and names like these are called meta-syntactical, isn't that a cool name? - I started learning x86-64, intel's ISA (actually AMD's, Itanium failed, AMD64 didn't)
But the more I learn about RISC-V and the reasoning behind it's design choices,
the more I want to replace this for something like
foo-V, the fact that I don't even remember some of the x86 specifics anymore also speaks a lot
I'm exploring kernel development right now, studying up on xv6, both the book and the 6.1810 class at MIT, I'll probably read Modern Operating Systems and some papers later too
In the end, I'm just a curious teenager learning stuff I find cool
