    What, you don’t have a special command to Compare Unsigned values in register C vs result register K? or Floating-point Addition with Parenthesis, so store the value for use on the next cycle?

      I still don’t know why this architecture went for a Double XOR as the NOP, I guess they were just flexing that the reference chip design could do both in a single cycle

          IT years are similar to dog years, an IT year is multiple normal human years, so 14 IT years is certainly IT decades.

              Just lie. What are they going to do? They don’t know enought to realize they made an impossible request, they won’t be able to tell the difference between 10 and 5 years experience.
