I didn't think there was such a thing as a wrong opinion until I read this post.

How the hell did RISC-V basically become a meme? It's an instruction set that's just designed to be simple, extensible and license-free (mainly for research purposes). It happens to be pretty good in terms of performance per watt, but it's not really designed for high-performance CPUs.

I think a combination of being picked up by a couple of high-profile companies (WD, NVIDIA) and people in-industry being generally pissed off with the IP situation around instruction sets, given that they're essentially another API.

Also, what do you mean by not designed for high performance?

great so the flash shortage will continue.
