Taalas only uses SRAM for the KV cache and the activations, the weights are in mask rom in the metal layers. If they designed this right, it means that once they have a model, so long as they keep the hyperparameters fixed they can change t

The Australian grid presently curtails ~7-18% of production every single day between 11:00 and 14:00. I believe that incentivizing people to acquire batteries is precisely the purpose of the policy. It's good for the grid for there to

It's not quite as bad as the parent made it out to be, the largest I've seen is 32kB per token (where sometimes, a token represents a byte, but usually it represents more than one.) It's forced by the nature of how LLMs use v

That's not how modern ethernet works at all. A single NIC talking directly to an another one has no collisions ever. Depending on what your channel is, either you have separate wires for the directions, or you are using a hybrid circui

This is an example of common knowledge that is wrong. People look at their cash burn, assume that they spend this to subsidize inference, and get bonkers answers. Inference is not their largest expense. Inference is cheap. Anthropic is only

The community makes the game. The actual game is much less important. The learning curve just acts as a filter that results in more like-minded people sticking with it.

It won't make sense to run them after two years. The vendors will be limited on datacenter space, power and cooling, and there will be new hardware available that will run the same models at a fraction of the power. A100 -> H100 was

The reason linear A is so difficult is that the total remaining corpus of Linear A text is ~7500 characters, spread out over ~1500 inscriptions. If you have a 4k screen, you can fit all remaining Linear A text on your screen at once, in 14p

Last year, we had (depending on location) 0 to 25 hours of sunlight total in the entire month of December. Low sun angle plus very heavy cloud cover means that even midday looks like a gloomy sunset.
