enjoy your 17 symbols per second scrub *peels out at a dece 6.5 gb/s on a high speed differential pair*

i remember the day i found out that m2m and f2f adaptors were available. i nearly pissed my pants with excitement at the possibilities.

so instead of just the little lightning cable, you're looking at like 17 lightning cables worth of bandwidth?

be careful about cable lengths though the NeXT Laser Printer just had a simple controller, all the smarts was on the NeXT Computer itself. and it only had a 9ft cable. wanted a longer cable? tough, they didn't make them. so some people tried to make longer cables. only they discovered that they didn't work. right pinout, right capacitance, right resistance, etc. but they didn't work—unless they were a multiple of 9ft long. turns out that the signaling they used cared enough about timing that the speed of light delay mattered in the construction of the cable and getting the clocking and data to align correctly so you had to use a scope to measure the value of c in the wire you were using, and then work out how long your cable had to be, and even then some things wouldn't ever work quite right because they had to happen on certain clocks rather than just aligned with them then a few years later there was PCI, which was intentionally unterminated so signal reflection would something something… bus design is hard

maybe on the software side but the way the hardware communicates to each other

could you make a computer where every major component has its own SoC with a wifi chip and then instead of using the bus or w/e they all communicate over wifi that would be a really bad computer

why dont they just build 1 big chip that does everything like internet/graphics/memory/storage and do it really quickly like i don't care if it's 'expensive' or 'hard' or whatever, like i'd pay $500 for a really good PC version of the macbook pro 17"
