I was reading HN comments yesterday shitting on modern IBM for being a non tech consulting company that has not innovated since the mid nineties.

There are already microcontrollers that have both arm + riscv support. This isn't something insane.

RP2350 has separate cores for that. This is one core that speaks both.

More like mid-2000s, even with the least charitable interpretation.

There was a time when IBM dominated console CPUs for a massively successful generation (PS3, Xbox 360, Nintendo Wii).

Transmeta did code translation with a software JIT.

I was curious, is it conceptually similar to Data General Fountainhead project?
