Unless both loops get unrolled it's ever so slightly slower due to having to check for the end value twice. Plus potentially a cache hit at the start of the second loop.

The robots that needed to pull the builds weren't local - they were out on farms and stuff - and even with crappy 3G internet, our upload was still the problem. Comcast was really screwing us.

A few years ago I was working at a place that needed to do builds targeting the Jetson platform, and was somewhat allergic to tossing it into the cloud due to cost. We ran the numbers and the Altra paid for itself pretty quickly. Great thi

I definitely saw somebody at Actuate last year talking about supplementing training videos for VLA with Youtube, but I think they actually found that "any" video of the real world helped give a better physics "understanding&q

I’m all about monotonic time everywhere after having soon too many badly configured time sync settings. :)

I have somewhere a branch that allows for "sharing" items between games as well. One could do an Oracle of Seasons+Ages game where your inventory is "the same" between both games, where possible (or extend to other games

I've started on a CMake integration to take multiple pyproject.toml files (in a monorepo or such), turn them into an editable workspace venv for development (with dependencies), and then on `make install` package the workspace up into

I started considering this for my own project, but it leads to tying together transport and serialization in ways that require much harder thinking about.

I've definitely gone down the rabbit hole of trying/being forced to fix issues like this. It starts off as just someone taking a shortcut of doing a little shell scripting in a python program or whatever. Generally the best tool I

Years ago I had the fun of hunting down a bug at 3am before a game launch. Randomly, we’d save the game and instead get an empty file. This is pretty much the worst thing a game can do (excepting wiping your hard drive, hello Bungie). Turne

We don't use Tailscale SSH, we do our own management, which I'd like to move away from.

by a_t48 1y ago
No, for disambiguating between multiple users logging into one shared account. Basically, I'd need for tailscale to inject an env variable into the session. Teleport does this with something like SSH_TELEPORT_USER (I don't have ac

by a_t48 1y ago
Vaguely related - there’s still no easy way to get at the email/user name of a user using tailscale ssh right? This is one of the things I really liked about teleport, you could use it to properly attribute git commits on shared machin

For Ubuntu it’s possible to use debootstrap to install to an external drive directly. Once you’ve done that, you can chroot into the new drive, fix up a few things that aren’t handled (mounts, locale), then install any software you want on

Useful, I’m going to be doing something similar w/C++ soon.

Spent way too much time working on getting this working over the past week, hopefully someone other than me learns something from it. As far as I know I’m the first to actually document it, if not the first to get an environment that works

A float16 is 2 bytes. 7B * 2 bytes = 14GB. I can't say if that's an accurate number, but that's almost certainly how tonii141 calculated it.

My issue with it is how easy it is to allocate all over the place if you forget to use inplace operations. It's even worse with cupy - rather than applying a series of operations to some data to produce some other data, you end up prod

My usual commute is a <15 minute walk to BART, and a 5 minute walk off BART. The car is mostly for driving around South/East Bay and getting bulk goods in Berkeley. Trying to wean myself off of using it in Oakland but bus service is

Once the initial shock of “how the hell do I get to work” wore off, it was nice taking the ferry and F to SOMA. Took an extra 20 minutes, but better than the time it would have taken waiting in bridge traffic.

You can talk with the clerk to get a refund. But I thought they were doing away with it entirely…

There’s a few backports around, not quite the same as having first class support, though.

Even with a new, perfect paradigm, there would be billions of systems running sudo for years.

I’ve done worse. At my very first job I wrote some slow login rewards calculation code for a mobile game that caused a black screen on startup for long enough that users thought the app was broken and closed it out. (I was simulating passin
