I've been interested in doing something similar in the past, but I could really never solve issues like domain squatting and stopping individuals from claiming every name possible. Do you have a place where you keep these plans or have

As someone from the US I would suggest viewing both as adversarial. I don't really trust my own government, but if I was born abroad I would trust them even less.

He's avoiding LLVM which is a compiler framework. Not LLMs as has been stated a few times in the comments already.

I don't have a lot of faith there, but that's mainly due to my experience being correcting peoples assumption that all gpus waves are 32 lanes. I might be biased there specifically since it's my job to fix those issues though

Now that I could agree with, the only place where hiccups have started to occur are with wave intrinsics where you can share data between thread in a wave without halting execution. I'm not sure disallowing it would be the best idea as

I'm not even sure a 32 wide array would be good either since on AMD warps are 64 wide. I wouldn't go fully towards auto vectorization with though.

From the last time I looked at these recompilation projects, they take the assembly and basically convert each opcode back into an llvm instruction and then recompiled from there. This comes with a lot of caveats though, last time I looked

Well you could already do doom for about 6 months now [1]. I haven't tested the nvidia side, but it ran okay on my RX 7700S in my framework laptop. [1] https://github.com/jhuber6/doomgeneric

I'm not even sure it's just instruction support that's the problem with the RV2. I bought one since I thought it would be cool to write a bare metal os for it (especially after I found the AI results to be so bad.) But the la

I think in this case browser is meant as a place to browse, e.g. the Google Play store is an app browser. I don't hear it used that way often anymore, but it at least sounds familiar.

I'm not sure I'm gonna grab another OrangePi board again. I was happy to grab the RV2 just to experiment around with, but I didn't realize that the linux kernel they provided to build their ubuntu distro doesn't actually

At this point I'm not sure I can give a satisfying answer, but zig was just fun to use from the beginning. It was just c, but with a bunch of special features like comptime, the lessened foot-gun-ness of zig was just a benefit since mo

Let's not forget about TigerBeetle either. They weren't bought (as far as I'm aware), but they seem to have some pretty good backing from customers.

I'd be careful about that one, there is still no license for it. Zork is notable here since it just got the MIT License applied to it.

I really wish I could like zig more, I started using it heavily around 0.11, but I feel like as more features get implemented there is more that I like and more that I hate. They've recently fallen into the trap of the wrong whitespace

This looks neat and would probably be cool to run on one of my passive info screens. But until it supports more than just Nvidia I'll have to stick with nvtop. Might be a good idea to pull the theme out to a file so it's all swapp

I've actually been dealing with this myself recently, but only the gpu portion. I've been trying to get a gpu working on the orangepi RV2 just to see if I can. The tools for building the kernel for orangepi are kind of bad though.

True, I think getting a block chain setup in a month is possible. But at the same time I don't think they would try and rush something like this out, stuff breaking would be much worse PR after what has already happened. I do think it&

I think they mean that the number that the image starts on is by default 0, I think they want to be able to change the starting number so top left could start at something else and increment from there. Adding on to that it would also be in

Just to add some context Adam works at AMD as a dev tech, so he is constantly working with game studios developers directly. While I can't say I've heard the same things since I'm somewhere else, I have seen some of the assum

While I won't endorse what the GP said, I wouldn't say that it's only gotten worse. I work for a modern gpu company (you can probably figure out which one from my comment history) on one of the modern apis and they much more

When the modding community is so heavily plagued with mods that are malicious in some way, I don't think having a modding api that can be safe by convention yet recompiled to be fast would be a bad idea. So while I'm not sure it w
