how do you know this?

I imagine if you paid the right people and already know the earth is flat it would give you better access

😂

i had a flat earther say that i cant design a CPU because it takes thousand of people to design one

have you actually tried doing that, kevin?

you can design a CPU, but cpu requires a motherboard to work

false

depending on how big you want to make it

true

you need a motherboard of some type to house the cpu

the design i have is small enugh that you could probably fit a few hundred thousand of them on a standard intel die

if you are trying to design a new type of architecture than scale will matter

going to be tough trying to minutarize new hardware

yo ucan design it on paper, but to actually build a prototype would take money and effort

and to not have it fill several rooms with ancient tech would require more than one person

well i have an FPGA

i can test thousands of designs on it

your not building a computer solo with new hardware by yourself, like new hardware would require help

is FPGA some prototyping software?

im designing new hardware

an FPGA is a type of chip that has all the logic gates on it

planning and implementing are two different animals

and you basicly "burn" the logic into it

FPGA = field programable gate aray

that doesn't sound like new hardawre

that sounds like using existing hardware that has already been developed

it can run at a few megahrz

the FPGA is a way to test an archetecture

its not the hardware itself

but it emulates the hardware itself

your burning routs for data to flow in it

the logic gates are there

the way to actually get real hardware is to ask a company to burn an asic for me

that cost a few hundred dollars tho

you have to buy batches

they actually built new types of hardware for making neural nets

for AI

an asic is basicly all the gates and you actually burn the wires in

yes

and those where probably first tested on an fpga

then asic
