Shameless plug for my https://blogsystem5.substack.com/p/beyond-the-1-mb-barrier-i... article from a couple of years ago. You'll find a deep dive on unreal mode (I just learned it's also known as "vodoo mode") and some hands-on code to play with it ;-P
wasn't this basically the consensus among numerical analysts like 20 years ago? i remeber reading similar arguments in goldberg's paper and various game dev forums circa 2005, so genuinely curious what keeps making this idea feel "new" to each generation of programmers who rediscovers it
Voodoo mode is the ultimate test. Imagine having access to 4GB of memory from real mode.

Interesting article. I learned some things.
How hard would it be for Mr Github to add rss/atom feeds, I wonder?
