lion VS solana

I've been starting to dabble with digital logic design via Clash (https://clash-lang.org/), and there is a very cool-looking RISC-V SoC project done in that tool that looks fairly serious: https://github.com/standardsemiconductor/lion.

That’s fascinating about the M1. In retrospect it seems like kind of a no-brainer but I doubt I would have thought of it.

SPARC had different memory models at different ISA revs IIRC: it’s been like 20 years since I was dealing with SPARC so I might be misremembering the details. Alpha would have been a better example.

RISC-V is really interesting. I’ve been slowly working through this: https://github.com/standardsemiconductor/lion, highly recommend!

Interesting. Actually, you may be just the person to answer my question: Is it possible/plausible to run a Cardano node on Lion OS on a RISC-V machine? IMO, it would be great for the community if we could run all Cardano stake pools on end to end formally verified machines using open source core and hardware.

In addition, you can actually set the riscv-formal suite to verify correctness by k-induction: https://github.com/SymbioticEDA/riscv-formal/pull/28 https://symbiyosys.readthedocs.io/en/latest/quickstart.html#beyond-bounded-model-checks although I concur that by looking at https://github.com/standardsemiconductor/lion/blob/main/lion-formal/app/Main.hs the lion core is only verified with BMC.

EIP Core standards: Changes to Solana’s core code go through “feature gates” in the Solana repo. Yes, it’s much less organized than the EIP pages you are used to, and a headache to understand or keep up with. A cost of the speed of development, I’m told.

I visited the project on github (https://github.com/solana-labs/solana), and tried to get an overview of the ~800 open issues and ~100 open PRs.

Solana

With the introduction of new and advanced blockchain platforms in the Web 3.0 scene, the narrative around Ethereum has slowly shifted towards its younger “Ethereum Alternatives”. Solana, Avalanche, and MultiversX (former Elrond) are some of the crypto blockchains that are given this terminology, as they share similar features but are comparatively cheaper and better than Ethereum.

I understand this initiative is connected with Solana network [1] in some way?

They do, actually: https://github.com/solana-labs/solana/security/policy

Not sure I understand your question, but if you want the source code you can find it on github (https://github.com/solana-labs/solana)

Some topics that may be discussed in the next call include @ShinobiSystems Timely Vote Credits proposal (https://github.com/solana-labs/solana/blob/master/docs/src/proposals/timely-vote-credits.md), @elusivprivacy new built-in cryptographic operations to accelerate ZK verification (for privacy tech), and feature activation coordination standards.
