The problem isn’t necessarily the tools we develop. The question is who do these tools empower.
If technological progress disproportionately empowers a minority and increases socioeconomic injustice, there is no true progress, merely increasingly elaborate repression and abuse

“When we step back and look at it, we see that it is a de facto open ecosystem. Open ecosystems benefit from having consortiums with stakeholders, all with a voice in driving the ecosystem forward”
Lol if the x86 ISA is an open ecosystem, CocaCola is an open source beverage.
Trying to read between the lines though, is Norrod implying that they are considering moving toward a more open x86?
The impression I’m getting is that they’re thinking about sacrificing various legacy features (32bit being the most obvs one) to bring performance per Watt closer to the competition. And then put in its place a more standardized successor? RIS86? They will likely aim to steer clear of formal (published) standards because they want their trade secrets. However, they will need to simultaneously ensure not to violate antitrust rules.
Might be easier for them to just forfeit trade secrets and embrace a different model altogether.

My work forced a recent macbook pro on me. One of those with the ARM chip.
I am in awe of the quality of that macbook.
