Re: [9fans] The developers of Plan9 think there was no point in coding in binary code three years ago as they did or make the Riga Technical University and University of Latvia?

i've forwarded your request to SP9SS (i may be missing an S in there
somewhere) for their immediate attention. they assure me it will be taken
up at the next special session of the central committee.

personally i think binary is passé. i'm waiting for processors that are
base "some large prime" -- preferably one that i can change on a whim. i
think this class of modulo-large-prime processors would make systems very
safe at the expense of a little work on the assembler every time the base
changes. perhaps UoL and RTU should start preparing students for this next
chapter in computing and help students avoid being SoL landing a dream tech
job with a BBTC (big-behemoth-tech-company)
