Yes even the kids' reactions generally seemed positive, some mentioned there were more conversations and joking going on in between classes, and cyber bullying was less prevalent (although 'old school' bullying seemed to make a comeback somewhat)

Sounds like wishful thinking to me. How is RISC-V stacking up to competitor architectures nowadays performance-wise? Last time I checked they were seriously lagging behind. Wouldn't recent AI developments (constantly requiring more computing power) be especially something that would hinder RISC-V taking off in the next couple of years?

It's so weird that that phrasing is even accepted as the norm. It would be unacceptable if a grocery store charges you for 'up to' 2 liters of soda, and then tells you to go fuck yourself when they give you only 0.5 liter.

As someone not living in Britain, this headline reads like an invitation.

So you're saying it's a 50/50 chance, eh?
