Execution Speed is Deprecated, Use Python!

Developer time is the most valuable resource. Writing in Python may cause slower code, but it is in reality much more efficient because you will get an exponential amount of more work done!

Yeah, missed explicitly stating that more transistors = more delay.

I'd like to see their analysis for a 1 cycle vs. a 2 cycle design. Without seeing any numbers, I'd tend to think that people would do many more 32 bit ops, so better to just keep the ALU to a very tight, single cycle.  Of course, that wouldn't work on the P4 anyway because the pipeline was so fucking deep... does Core still do it this way?

Yes, looking at this a little more I believe _Bool is the actual C99 type that the compiler needs to understand as only ever holding a value of 0 or 1.  The compiler must know this because using a plain integer type would lead to conversion problems like >>44.
