[chbot] RISC-V stuff.

[hamster]

Hi, 

Yesterday I received a Sipeed MAiX M1w arrive in the mail from
Seeed Studio. https://www.seeedstudio.com/sipeed 

It is RISC-V 64-bit
dual core 400MHz CPU, 8MB of RAM, LCD and Camera interfaces, WiFi, and
lots of odd hardware features "AI accelerator", "FFT accelerator"... 

A
few lines of microPython later the camera and LCD were up and running.
Not bad for < $US20. 

I posted on Twitter about it, and Bruce Holt (ex
Samsung R&D, moving to the US to be with SiFive, knows a ton about a lot
of CPUs) said that he would be in town sometime soon and would be happy
to meet up and chat. 

Anybody else interested? 

Time and place TBA.


Mike
