[conspire] CPU power draw and heat

[paulz at ieee.org]

 I much enjoyed the video.  For the record, my first hands-on experience with microprocessors was the Motorola 6800 in the mid 1970's.  HP used them and their successor parts to control the workings of many of their instruments.  They had a linear address space in contrast to the segmentation used by the better known processor company.

While I'm on a kick watching talks and interviews with old Acorn folks, here's a great screenshot of Intel processor power density from a talk by Sophie Wilson.  She designed the instruction set for the original ARM, and seems to be doing high-throughput CPU designs for networking equipment these days.

Here's the talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9mzmvhwMqw

(Apologies for the filename: my screenshot script uses `shuf -n 4 /usr/share/dict/words` to make the filenames, which probably wasn't clever)
