@neauoire ooh this is a very interesting fixpoint sort of computation model

@pry You might want to look into OCCAM parallel computing, or Fredkin's BBM: cell-auto.com/bbm/2d/index.htm

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! wiki.xxiivv.com/docs/dssp.txt

Or linear! plover.com/~mjd/misc/hbaker-ar

@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
