   GlobalFoundries Acquires MIPS

   MIPS is the name of the company that inherited what’s left of the   
   pioneering MIPS RISC architecture from the 1980s and 1990s. Nowadays   
   they have gone all-in on the RISC-V bandwagon. Though China’s   
   homegrown Loongson/LoongArch machines are, I believe, based on a   
   variant of the original MIPS architecture. Also I think there are   
   still actual MIPS chips still being made for some embeddded purposes,   
   like wireless routers.
