Hello Mattbatwings! I am a big fan! 😃 I am subbed! I think you are one of the best redstoners out there!

Is it bosebol to get it free?

This is so cool!!!!!!!!!

Let's go finally! HydraZen V1 was the worst cpu so I hope this series will help me to improve :)

[@ponali.mememaker]

i have so much hope for mattbatwings to make a redstone based on the 6502. most ancient hardware uses it so it would technically be making an emulator through redstone

[@theairaccumulator7144]

A 6502 is way too complicated to implement and it would take like 15 minutes per clock cycle. A CPU made specifically to be simple to emulate like Chip-8 would be better.

[@proceduralism376]

@@theairaccumulator7144 Wrong, a 6502 is actually a very simple processor, and you could definetly make it 1 hz or maybe even faster just by pipelining

[@xanderplayz3446]

@@theairaccumulator7144On Vanilla. On a specialized redstone server? Maybe 1 hz.

[@deffman32tech]

Same! I recently made Ben Eater's breadboard 6502 project, and I have a newfound love for the thing

[@blockman_games17]

a 6502 is very cool and could be used to play NES games like SMB, SMB2, SMB2 again, SMB3, and more! I would really like him to do this but one problem could be the palletes since it has way more colors

5:26 Turing did not prove that Turing machines can compute anything. He actually proved the opposite by showing that the halting problem is undecidable by a Turing machine. But, together with Alonzo Church and Stephen Cole Kleene, he proved the equivalence of several models of computation such as Turing machines and the lambda calculus. They stated in the Church-Turing thesis that these models of computation coincide with the intuitive understanding of computability, which is something that can not be proved mathematically.

[@puppetbirds]

no, turing didn’t prove his computers could compute ANYTHING, he said they could compute anything COMPUTABLE

As a professional Computer Science educator and nerd, it'll be really interesting to see how someone who wasn't taught in the "Standard" way and instead learnt in a hands-on manner teaches this. So far you're pretty good!

[@baconheadhair6938]

well he probably will still teach it the standard way because he studies this in college but he will just explain how it differs from mincraft

[@Turtlenigma]

Check out the redstone reloaded series! He's brilliant!

[@J2ko]

LETS GOOOOOOO I'm so hyped for this series!!!

[@bestboy-rf9si]

dude same

[@minoxs]

Almost ironically, a lot of languages nowadays share the same backend, an intermediate language called LLVM. C++ compiles down to LLVM which then is compiled to Assembly/Machine Code. And LLVM is made so that you can plugin your own architechture and it will spit out machine code from literally any language that uses LLVM. Which means you'd be able to run C++, Rust, Golang, etc in the Redstone computer. I might give that a shot lol

[@SunroseStudios]

probably wouldn't be very efficient, but fun project idea!

[@devaughntimoll9493]

Ohh actually llvm is a framework that allows you to build compilers. c++’s compiler compiles to llvms ir code which I believe is called “ll” but only if you are using clang for example I use gcc which has its own ir code but it does not belong to llvm . a lot of compilers compile to ir code to simplify the process but not every compiler shares the same ir code and some may do but it really depends on the compiler

[@minoxs]

@@devaughntimoll9493 Right, C++ and C has a bunch of different compilers, but as long as one compiles with LLVM, it's fair game LLVM works both for creating compilers (custom languages), as much as it does for custom architechtures. It sits right in the middle of the whole process, it's really magical

[@devaughntimoll9493]

@@minoxsyeah I believe it also used for rust . Yeah llvm is really useful actually I’m working on a compiler I didn’t use llvm cause the entire point of the project it understands assembly and stuff but if I was trying to make a military grade compiler then I would definitely use llvm although it does have some boilerplate code

[@foxypiratecove37350]

CLang uses LLVM IR, but G++ uses RTL.

[@voidsenight9927]

as a cs student, I'm extremely excited to see where this series goes, looking forward to all future episodes

[@oPlazmaMC]

Matt will prob teach us more about computer science than we could learn in years

[@RealHolyz_]

yes that’s his superpower ig lol

[@suspicioussand]

To be fair, most people haven't ever really thought about how a computer works exactly

[@Breuhh]

6:23, incorrect. It's "Can it run doom"

[@atom1kcreeper605]

No joke it quite literally is

[@SinNemesis]

Real

[@SPEXWISE]

Yup

[@smellycheese08]

my thoughts exactly

[@3leggedchair]

"is it doom-complete?"

[@rubix4716]

I'm so hyped for this!!! I've been a computer programmer for a long while, but I'm really excited to be able to learn about the lower level workings of a computer. I have built of a ton of single purpose Redstone machines and I'm excited to see how to expand this knowledge into a making a programmable computer.

[@averagemilffan]

I'm personally a math person just trying to get into computers, while I know these aren't 1 to 1 with real computers, I still hope you explain the why much more than the how. Cheers!

[@atom1kcreeper605]

There very close though you can use all the same information you just got to know a little more about electronics

[@ChessGame-g5y]

It's good that you are making videos. Good luck to you Matt! I hope that you are feeling better now, sorry for your loss.

[@FriedMonkey362]

Man i love computers, ive tried writing multiple emulators, and i have always wanted to make/design my own computer, but dont want to spend the money on electronics, and dont know redstone enough to make one in Minecraft, i loved your previous video about making a computer, and cant wait to see what this series will bring

[@4MB1T1OUS]

its a great day when Mattbatwings uploads another banger

[@cherryaura3964]

WHERE HAS THIS VIDEO BEEN ALL MY LIFE?! I HAVE DREAMT ABOUT THIS

[@imademedikasurya3917]

Watching this add me more perspective about my digital system course and computer architecture course

[@nix207]

As someone who had to give up learning Computer Science, this is a godsend. It's probably too late to catch up to your knowledge and redstone expertise, but I'm here to learn

[@EliaxLavrix__]

This is 100% gonna be the best series ever❤

[@andreabianchi4078]

I've just discovered your channel, but I'm already looking forward to this series lol As an engineering student, I've already seen all the theory you talked about in the video (I loved programming Assembly), and the concept of seeing everything applied in minecraft seems very cool!

[@bestboy-rf9si]

noice

[@Pianomations]

You, are the best minecraft youtuber. I have ALWAYS wanted to learn how these computer parts work, and you teach us this…in minecraft?? Thank you so much, continue helping people like us learn.

[@jonanderson70]

This is a fantastic idea for a series imo. I know a decent amount about both Redstone and computers, but I’m far from being an expert at either, so this is going to be right up my alley.

[@andrewcook8300]

I’m about to quit my computer organization class. Everything I need to learn is here!

[@cuchibambo.p]

Haven't watched yet but I have never been more hyped to follow a tutorial online

[@elliotdewitt9505]

I am so excited about this series! I will support every video of this series, thanks for that really interesting and informative videos, dude!

[@ArmyMenMajor]

Yes thanks Matt! I have been searching for a modern computer tutorial but haven't been able to find many. Thanks so much I'm really excited to build it!

[@JoepOtten]

the logival redstone serie was awseome, hope to see that good serie come back in this one and make it even more complex and good! Keep this up mat bat wings, your the only one that does this kind of instruction videos.

[@M_1024]

Building a computer might be the best way to learn about low level stuff in computer science. I tried to build one, but didn't finish, and it already thaught me a lot. Concepts like pointers and data structeres were a lot easier for me.

I'm working on making a 32-bit RISC with a graphics GPU. For now, I'm studying a way to create a HD using a bau while I try to understand how the device bus works. I even thought about a mod to change the strength of the redstone, since some circuits like the cancellation adder get chaotic when stacking up to 32. However, I gave up on the idea of ​​mods and opted for pure Minecraft. Anything, two players to load the world if the system gets huge.
