What’s left here? I never took operating systems, going direct from EE bachelor to CS master’s, so this post/comment is perfectly at the gap in my education—I understand the metal->transistor->flop memory we see here, and the server->application->Minecraft you’re imagining, what needs to be built from red stone to go from flop memory->server?
Rock on, I have implemented the components of ARM, but at an undergrad homework assignment level, not a “emulate ARM” level. Am I correct to say this class is called computer architecture?
Linux is obviously Operating Systems, and “compiling Java” is Compilers—I think this is a 3 semester project if we can align schedules and keep the team together
I'm speechless, it is amazing this is even possible. But it's more impressive to me that someone actually thought of this idea and decided to attempt it in the first place.
Sometimes side and off-the-cuff projects are just wacky enough to become amusingly interesting, and inspiring to try something crazy yourself.
I look forward to watching my future grandchildren install a minecraft mod that dematerializes them and let's them play inside minecraft. Then I'll start ranting about Tron and they'll just shake their heads about Grandpa and how he still lives on the old Earth moon colony.
This is really cool, I've always liked the idea of being super close to hardware, like being able to visually inspect it, walk around it like it's your kitchen or something, and make modifications to it. Something akin to walking downtown NYC or any big city
