   I’m curious, what problems does EE have?

   Yes, I already feel this despite not having moved out of the SFBA yet. I miss more dense cities with functional transit systems and fewer on-the-street issues. Still planning to stay here long term to save extra money. But as soon as I hit

   Seems like alarmist FUD to me. While I agree that having Arm owned by any one of its major customers creates some potential conflicts of interests, I think the notion that NVIDIA or any other company would start to drive licensees away with

   I feel this is true with adult life in general. Drinking and going to bars is always the default social activity, particularly for young adults.

   I’m curious, why is this the case for GPUs and not CPUs?

   Answering in the present as a mid-20s person who is currently sowing the seeds of financial independence by saving/investing over half of my after-tax income. Having compound interest working in my favor early is key to my FIRE goals.

   If you’re willing to share, what would you have changed specifically that wasn’t normal among peers that would’ve made your 30s better? Mindset? Career path? Relationships?

   Last I saw, they don’t even support ROCm on their recent Navi cards, so I’d be hesitant.

   Next-gen onsoles definitely aren’t targeting 4k60 as a standard. A few big launch ones are coming in at 4k30. Really unfortunate but not surprising considering the limitations of the hardware. A DLSS-like solution would’ve worked wonders on

    Yeah, the design is far too “bubbly” and “floaty” and really doesn’t fit what I’d want out of a desktop environment.

    My comment was meant to be more general than Intel. I’m even including AMD here. x86 has no presence in mobile (that ship has sailed) and again I’m seeing quite a lot of innovation on ARM side wrt server-class processors. Not sure how tradi

    I really wonder what this says about the x86 platform going forward. Mobile completely passed it by. I’ve been seeing more hype about ARM servers for a while with AWS Graviton instances, the new #1 supercomputer in the TOP500, etc. And of c

    Apparently every product/middle manager at Apple is a woman. Have they made a strong push on this recently?

    What a strange article based on the common notion that "Canadians are notoriously polite" and as such want to create a "nice person's Silicon Valley." As someone who was raised in the GTA and came down to SV for ful

    I wouldn’t say graphics is all that niche compared to many other fields. There are plenty of jobs in it. The problem with salary seems to be that many people want to be in the gaming industry. Ultimately a problem of supply/demand and

    This research reminds me of one of their April Fool’s videos [1] with a gaming USB stick that you plug into your computer to offer various gaming enhancements. One of which is a “Ghostplay” feature where an AI program can mimic you after tr

    I’ve been meaning to get a sense of my day-to-day finances for a while now and I have to say that your site is great. Concise, answers all the obvious questions, and directly compares to the two most popular solutions on the market. Amazing

    Two thoughts that come to mind: 1. AMD has struggled in the past and even today on being profitable with their GPUs. Makes it difficult to entice an army of knowledgeable devs without consistent cash flow. Granted, the tide is turning with

    I never knew what the “b” in “bfloat” was in all these new DL chips… until today. Man that’s bad.

    If the demonstrated speed ups translate to real world performance, then I’m truly blown away. Looks like Nvidia will be holding onto the AI crown a while longer. The only thing I wonder is how difficult is it to take advantage of some of th

    This thing is mainly targeted at AI workloads I assume, so double precision isn’t so interesting.

    What kind of problems did you have that weren’t obviously nutrition/health related? Curious what your diet is and what we’re the benefits that you saw.

    You need to FIRE. Don’t necessarily need to retire early if that isn’t your thing, but being financially independent is key. See https://reddit.com/r/financialindependence
