> SparkFun turns 20 years old this week, and next year I’ll have worked at SparkFun half of my life. Since SparkFun opened its doors, there was always work to do. The challenge of getting a little faster to market, writing a little cleaner code, open sourcing more technologies, and increasing the production yield rate a few fractions of a percentage more was, and continues to be, thrilling. I get to puzzle for work, and I’ve got a whole team of like minded folks that makes another twenty years of SparkFun sound absolutely delightful.
## RISC-V Summit 2022: All Your CPUs Belong to Us
[![RISC-V Summit 2022: All Your CPUs Belong to Us](../assets/20230110/20230110rv.jpg)](https://www.eetimes.com/risc-v-summit-2022-all-your-cpus-belong-to-us/)
In [a recent guest editorial](https://www.eetimes.com/examining-the-top-five-fallacies-about-risc-v/) on EE Times, legendary professor David Patterson wrote about busting the five myths around the RISC-V instruction set architecture (ISA). At the recent [RISC-V Summit](https://riscv.org/event/risc-v-summit-2022/) organized by RISC-V International, the consortium that manages and promotes the RISC-V Instruction Set Architecture (ISA), its president, Calista Redmond, had a far more blunt message: RISC-V is inevitable.
In fact, she said, RISC-V will eventually have the best CPUs, the best software running on them and the best ecosystem of any microprocessor core family. These are mighty strong words for a nascent ISA that is only about 10 years old and that competes with the far more established Arm and x86 ISAs. It almost sounded like the Borg from Star Trek when they say, “Resistance is futile.”
