Editorial interest 84/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A browser-running 16-bit processor built from a single computational primitive, with its machine state designed to advance one step per block.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-11 issue.

Field notes

The page exposes a register-level machine view rather than treating the processor as an abstract product. Visible diagnostics include a 16-register file, program counter, flags, instruction register, memory port, and netlist activity across named units such as the adder and barrel shifter. The homepage says its figures are read from the machine running in the browser, while deployed-instance figures are marked separately; it also states that no contract is currently deployed.
