    Maybe we’re reading something different, or this is tongue and cheek but "Alibaba’s research arm, the Damo Academy, " sounds like research arm is a synonym for “research division” or “research department”.

      Nope, definitely a CPU. It’s the CPU that’s promising the server-class RISC-V processor.

          The part where it says “arm.”

          You’re really not getting the sarcasm here are you…

            No, I was hoping it’d be confirmed when I mentiomed it could be tongue in cheek. Doesn’t always come across in a thread where some are unironically making the same point.

              I was trying to criticize the original poster by using increasingly ridiculous arguments, when it was obvious they never actually read the article and even misread the post. Something something satire.

              I guess it didn’t come off obvious enough. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

                I’m just bad at reading sarcasm sometimes. Probably you were obvious and it went over my head
