- Forthless Forth
- GA144, don't want to use a lot of nodes
- Don't need to compile over and over if I can decompile
- Read 5-bit and generate a word
- Lost interest and went on to other things
- Had in mind an editor you could move in the code
- Was able to display some toy object + source
- Got iPhone
- I'll do this on the iPhone
- Bought an mini mac
- A counter
- Was very unhappy doing this
- Wanted to generate object code, but no way I can do this
- Hoped to combine apps
- Wasn't fun
- Toolchains complex, ill documented
- Same on the mac
- Maybe there's another way
- Bought a Raspberry Pi
- Got my Forth on to it
- Bare metal Forth on the Pi
- Could put an image up on the monitor
- Could put up my source code
- Decompiled from object code
- Used the I/O interface with 3 key keyboard
- Quad core, couldn't talk to the other core
- Couldn't talk to the GPU other than display image
- Could figure out how to talk to the USB
- No documentation for anything
- It wasn't fun, all the time searching the internet
- I feel marginalized
- They'd have to document their system
- Undocumented conglomerations
- Rely in internet hackers to reverse engineer
- It's a lousy world
- Returned to the GA144
- Greg has an IP interface, 10 nodes
- Do that and get on the internet, move in that direction
- Have a USB, but can only talk to keyboard
- Not real motivated
- Threw away my soldering iron
- Threw away my oscilloscope
- At 10nm that would be 40,000 GA nodes
- Even at 14nm
- You submit your geometry, they convert
- Your file has to vetted by their design rule check
- At MOSIS 5 people could produce a chip and get 10 back
- Hardware people aren't innovating, putting other peoples things on a chip
- I used to think there was a conspiracy
- Now I think people just don't want to document things
- Haven't heard anything about colorForth today
- That's why colorforth.com went away
- colorFroth was a good idea, but I've got other things to do
- colorForth is a good thing, but I think decompiler is the way to go
