Gregory's Server@pry alternatively, you can imagine a Thue-like computer where its only instruction is string replacement, and how that might look like.

 @pry You might want to look into OCCAM parallel computing, or Fredkin's BBM: http://cell-auto.com/bbm/2d/index.html Or, imagine a OISC that is just Fractran, its one task is to hold prime encoded numbers and multiply! There's so many cool designs out there to try. I'd love to see a combinatory computer where opcodes are permutations of the combinatorics :mocking: Or ternary! http://wiki.xxiivv.com/docs/dssp.txt Or linear! https://plover.com/~mjd/misc/hbaker-archive/ReverseGC.html  @neauoire yea idk hardware design for these sorts of models is such a fascinating problem. this summer I'll be working at a company designing CPUs (am just doing software simulation work) but I rlly do want to spend some more time thinking about alternate methods of instantiating computation in hardware |
@neauoire ooh this is a very interesting fixpoint sort of computation model
