>When you have illiterate kids graduating from high school, then obviously schools are failing.
To give it some perspective, we learn to read English as second language in our schools way before High school.
Almost all Finnish learn how to READ finnish in first grade. (Well the goverment will have special teaching for those few cases that cannot and have doctors to look if there is some medical problem that causes the illiteracy, so its not common at all.)
>Schools are doomed by social promotion. How can you have effective schools if it is essentially impossible to get left back, or to fail a grade?
This is one thing in Finnish schools, people do get conditional failure for class, if you fail in one grade level, you need to learn that in summer from books and come to school for tests, in order to get to next level, and failure in that results redoing the grade until you succeed. (Or your obligation to education ends by your age.).
Still our school system is far from perfect, and I personally consider that my children (when I have them.) , learn reading, and math as young as possible, and spend ZERO time on normal education system that kills the joy for learning, and wastes lots of time.
On most electrical design except extremely commodity cheap thingies, the manufacturing costs are neglible. For instance 300mm die should costs about 30$ and then there is packaging and testing costs more. But 3 things are expensive. a) NRE= the costs per design revision you start manufacturing = 1M$ per revision b) design costs of the chip divided to all chips. c) MARKETING COSTS!!!!!!
Besides IA-64+x86 on same chip is doomed to be more complex to design than pure x86 or pure IA-64. Currently intel does mixture chips.
So your favourite chip wouldn't do any AI or anything like that. Its optimized software why game consoles do well, its all because software knows EXACT hardware limitations and optimizes for them exacly.
Floating point math is simple, scheduling instruction dependencies is not, and overdoing x86 flags dependencies is worse. (Unless you do it in software;)
As x86 instruction decoder wants FEW extra bits in cache in order to allow multiple issue, actually, thats atleast 3 per byte. Now the trace cache is even worse. So I don't care if you can crank more instrcutions in your 32kb cache, I'm more interested, if your cache is double the size, and you can fetch and decode twice as many instructions, like real issues. BTW: L1 instruction cache can be quite huge, as its only small branch prediction penalty.

Id rather use some indexing on such large amount of data. Like putting an array out of first 4 letters and use that as index for rest of data. That should give us a 4 Meg index file for first search. [2^(5bitsperletter*4letters)] And that reduces the overall datafile by decent amount by reducing duplicates so its not waste. If its compressed well it won't save much but anyway.
But I wouldn't use 386 for it as it would require some EXCELLENT variable lenght compression inorder to fit the data in the harddrives for it to seach. 400M names to search for...
If we assume average name lenght is ~10bytes. [6bits per letter.] That would result enough less than 4G. P4 with 4G of ram could fit that data in memory. And get it in 0.6 seconds average. 1.3s worstcase. [Random search.] Your 386 with binary search, should require 2log(400 000 000)= 29 random disk accesses. Thats ~1 seconds, with HD delays of the time.
So P4 has better average case while 386 has better worstcase. If 386 cannot handle enough disks to hold the required data you should add the network delay for the cluster that handles it, and suddenly your 386 with the algorithm is going to loose. Isn't moore law wonderfull. These days people could get far more ram than 15 years ago harddrive space.

If IBM offers that new chip based linux desktop cheap enough I may switch platform, next fall.
Yeps G4 and P3 are such different kind of beasts currently, that I could make C code that runs on one machine twice as fast as on other, with optimized compilers. The reasons for speed differences has nothing to do with ISA in either case though. The apples main failure is its slow FSB and limited outstanding memory requests. There are multiple versions of G4 with one that does 1 memory write and 5 reads. And another that does 8 combined. Guess which one they used... And from pentium pro intel has always had much more of those. And improving it makes NO sence for embedded chip ala motorolas main market for it. Another issue is that the P3 run software that was by far better optimized for it than mac has. Now there is ONE thing that is coming along that can save mac... Specs seem to say 8 instructions/cycle 200 instructions in flight at OOE, >1MEG ondie cache, second core ondie and 6.4GB/s bus. Thats like double the speed of P4 bus... Clock speed may lag compared to P4 or may not. Depends how well IBM engineers get it tweaked. BTW in floating point 2.8ghz P4 looses on 1.1ghz powerpc CPU. Yeps its the base of the cpu that will be used for the new chip that will be used at next summer at apple. That will have die shrink too it would get at 2-4Ghz at launch for desktop. Cannot estimate maximum since the clock speed limitation was power consumption AND absolute reliability requirement that resulted much less agressive timings compared to desktop chips.
Motorola is BAD company for apple while IBM does much better. A) IBM makes HIGH end servers/workstations B) IBM makes POWERPC chips for those markets. c) IBM will make desktop version of it for later.
A) Motorola makes embedded chips that must run with low power.->low max clock speed/not many functional units. B) those are powerPC chps too. C) Makes desktop versions of it to sell Apple.
As you can see there is difference. And what apple gets next summer IS the thing that keeps it in high end for some time. Unfortunately many apple suporters will hold their purchases for apple until this thing comes out, since their current chips are desperately out powered, on unoptimized code.
Hey you got one thing completely WRONG the cache size must be much larger by then. The memory/processor gap increases, so best way to improve processor performance is add more cache. And with currently at 512kb, and with die shrink you get to 2Meg by 0.9u at 5Ghz. At 10Ghz theyll probably put 8Megs of cache on mainstream desktop part. Its the most efficient use of silicon space for improved performance at that time...
Damn I knew it I shouldn't of picked 65536 they simply didn't understand it hmm. Perhaps I should of picked 4294967296 since they were getting someone for writing 32bit apps.
Actually they use in their mainframes some other ISA but thats totally different than even server market. Ridiculous stability ensurances, and software thats history goes far beyoud powerpc.
a) ITS DUAL CORE die with 4 dies in package. b) 100A*1.8V=180W c) 0.18u d) LOW VOLUME= [NOT handlayout.]
So if they mean per die its 90W per core and its pretty close to alpha. And if we take away the extra multiprocessor logic, like those highspeed package interconnections you probably end around 70W and ITS NOT HAND OPTIMIZED VERSION. Consider that AMD/INTEL puts lots of resources in hand optimization of their processors, while IBM didn't because time to market considerations/ portability / costs of doing it.
ITs similar of using assembler in software developement in systems that are atleast Million lines of C. With no peaces that are used most of the time. And with the speed of system as slow as its slowest function of the package.
BUT if they make handoptimized execution core they could use the same core block as high-end systems and low end systems, but that requires more sales to make that cost-effective. Of course with high level code version you need to do some optimisations but its not as costly as with doing execution units and scheduling logic with hand layout.
Well I said it 2 years ago. And with couple of reasons why they should go for it. Including, leverage of software developement. IF they make a powerPC compatible linux box that is cheap enough of linux users. Their shoftware support will be improved and they protect their selfs agains embedded x86 processors. As Intel compatibles are spreading in their market share for larger and smaller systems where the powerPC architecture has its current market share.It could definitely get nice foot hold in universities/ students/linux users, and that would improve the STABILITY of linux software in powerPC.
Consider how many of slashdotters wouldn't get PowerPC Linux box if they could get higher performance than x86 systems with similar price?

Well after they find out it doesn't do well, they would slowly reduce the availability.

Well in the elementary school, 8th grade computer science teacher, some guys at my class had.
Had a good way of grading.(scale 4=F->10=A)
You get 7 if you know how to turn computer on,
8 if you know to do something, 9 if you know how to do know something else. 10 If you knew any thing at all, that most computer users wouldn't know. (programming, a simple for statement or, excel skills.. this was early 90's)
You need about 150 of those to get the effect of single battery this story was about. And 190 for more expensive model.
If ever get laptop with these AA batteries.... I'll recommend you try to change the batteries, on the road. The battery change becomes, a nice experience with 160 AA size batteries on the bottom of laptop.... Especially, if you compare it for change of mobile phone batteries. Just a two small moves, and its over. Its not nice at all, too short experience.

Well in the elementary school, 8th grade computer science teacher, some guys at my class had. Had a good way of grading.(scale 4=F->10=A) You get 7 if you know how to turn computer on, 8 if you know to do something, 9 if you know how to do know something else. 10 If you knew any thing at all, that most computer users wouldn't know. (programming, a simple for statement or, excel skills.. this was early 90's)
You need about 150 of those to get the effect of single battery this story was about. And 190 for more expensive model.
If ever get laptop with these AA batteries.... I'll recommend you try to change the batteries, on the road. The battery change becomes, a nice experience with 160 AA size batteries on the bottom of laptop.... Especially, if you compare it for change of mobile phone batteries. Just a two small moves, and its over. Its not nice at all, too short experience.
