This is Sunak’s plan.

This actually happened in 1933. That man was Albert Einstein.

Pull quote: The Community Library Network Alliance, independent of the library network, was officially formed in November 2022 by Emily Christopherson of Post Falls and Angela Drewien of Hayden. It is a grassroots movement effected by those who are passionate and concerned about local library goings-on and who believe a thriving public library system is necessary for a community to be vibrant and well-informed. Part of the group's mission is to ensure the integrity and success of the local libraries through qualified, library-minded and trustworthy library trustees.

MIPS has now gone full RISC-V, which kind of makes sense, since RISC-V is 4 Berkeley iterations down from the original MIPS architecture. and they've clearly applied everything they learned modernising the MIPS architecture to their first RISC-V offering! exciting times... even if the poor old MIPS architecture is now orphaned (but it lives on, i guess, in Loongson - and in various textbooks... and in Microchip's oldest PIC32s)

if only we'd stuck with 36-bit computers, we wouldn't have a date problem until 3058, by which time we could reasonably assume that computers had become sentient, wiped us all out, and would have to fix their own damn date bugs
