Ask HN: What projects are you going to work on if no need to work?

I think we can all dream. I'll start:

- I will read geological surveys and find fossils.

- I will teach myself Physics and see what happens.

I'm keeping myself busy working on my BitGrid architecture, I aim to route around the 80 years of technical debt started by John von Neumann. One of his first casualties was ENIAC, which was slowed down by about 80% when it was "improved"[1]

BitGrid[2] is a green field approach, and I need an accountability buddy to keep me focused. Replacing everything is hard.

Sounds very interesting, it reminds of an NPU. Any visualization of how it works?
