I've tried it on 10980XE (18-core) that got between 600GFlops-1.6TFlops depending on the instruction in quad channel mode. Will try later on a 32-core Threadripper. The challenge there is to keep all cores busy during training while no

Well, a friend of mine was invited to an on-site interview at Google once, flew a few hours there, then arrived at the reception, waited for 7 hours, then they told him they forgot about him and he can go back home. Some people have bad exp

I finished all main/side missions and gigs, let Johnny take over whenever he wanted and then went through all reachable ending combinations (8 different endings, even if slightly) and then I learned there is a secret ending considered

From my experience they place most weight on system design. They allow you to get 1-2 neutral flags from leetcoding and still get an offer.

Their interview process improved significantly and they had it arguably better than any other FAANG in recent years.

Cyberpunk was pretty rad, but after trying all endings I learned about the secret one for which I didn't qualify due to different choices in some early dialogue with Johnny far before ending, which soured the overall experience for me.

Inference or training? I think with full training you are out of luck with CPUs, the gap is much bigger. 64c TR could only get to roughly 1TFlops.

2) is a nice theory. There are no alternatives for the foreseeable future. There simply isn't any spare capacity anywhere in the world. And Russia will be just burning gas that was originally targeted for EU as they need to keep the so

It makes no sense. Russia would make itself 100% dependent on Ukrainian transit lines, prompting them to go all in to conquer the whole Ukraine, which is a nuisance. Now they have to do it or quit EU completely. This blow up doesn't he

It's more like telling Putin to go all in on Ukraine as that country is now 100% controlling transit of Russian gas to EU, so any Russian export is at the mercy of the US in the end. The alternative to bypass Ukraine is now gone, makin

If they detonated it with a rope, they would have gone up in flames themselves as the radius of the leak is over 1 km long. It had to be a delayed charge.

I fail to see how obliterating 1000 miles of pipes, writing off 10s of billions as a punishment for a nuclear threat gets us away from using nukes. To me it seems like it brings us much closer to using them.

My Apple TV is happily showing me ads when watching Amazon Prime Video. So it's up to the app anyway - if Amazon wants to bundle LOTR:ROP with ads, they will do it on any box/platform.

Boox A4 is great (Max Lumi 2), extremely practical. Can't go back to smaller e-inks. Kindle almost needed lens to read anything and I can't imagine writing on it.

A4 is the smallest tablet size that is practical for writing. Not sure how many people will keep using Scribe when they realize it.

Whether it is smart or not remains to be seen. AMD might step up and obliterate 40x0 in price/performance.
