And I can't trust that site. An example: 3,129 days since Elon Musk said Teslas would have 1,000 kilometer (621 mile) range within a year or two. (9/23/2015) "My guess is probably we could break 1,000 kilomete

How it compares to the many hybrid SSM/Transformer architectures that are coming out now, with 2B+ weights released? I skimmed the paper, but it seems it's innovation is basically combining both in the same layer, instead of alter

Note that this is a "QS" CPU, very likely B0 stepping ES by posts elsewhere. A new one of those is around 3k USD alone. The 16-core can be had for around $1200 however and the board for $780. 12x32=384 GB of RAM seems to be about

LLM inference is mostly memory bound. An 12-channel Epyc Genoa with 4800MT/s DDR5 ram clocks at 460.8 GB/sec. It's more than the 400GB/s of the M3 Max, only part of that accessible for the CPU. And on the Epyc System you

Training needs lots of bandwidth, at least as done today. Something easier to distribute and do in a small scale is dataset creation.

You can use a bit for zero or non-zero and then use bits only for providing the sign to non-zero values, for example. The sign part will be variable length but can probably be made very fast with hardware support.

I never heard the term "Momentary Fusion". There are other pulsed fusion methods, like Dense Plasma Focus[1] with it's very hot but very short lived plasmoids. Also still far from being economically viable, but I would say ha

It seems to me that most of the complaints about register windows is related to the need of managing them via software, in case of overflow or task switch. What if there were an streaming hardware unit, with it's own caches, that manag

Nim treats C/C++ as portable assembly, so you should think more in terms of compilation than "transpilation". While it can use C gc's like Boehm, it can also use the new ORC that benefits from optional lifetime annotatio

Your Nim project will be in a consistent casing, otherwise the compiler will be warning you about inconsistent spelling. Regular Ctrl-shift-f will work just fine.

Do you use it regularly? I don't, and I don't have any problem finding what I need with regular ctrl+F in Nim, because Nim projects are internally consistent in terms of style, with the compiler helping enforcing it with `-styleCh

First, you are aware of `--styleCheck:usages` and `--styleCheck:off|hint|error` that by default already warns the user if he is not consistent on the spellings of identifiers? So you ever just have to search by one form inside your projects

One advantage of Mars to the Moon for a self-sustaining civilization that no-one mentioned is that it is MORE than a few hours away. Any moon base or future economy would be very dependent on earth, while Mars have more incentive to be inde
