By being the greatest general intelligences we know of? Even then, it’s still the most lethal thing most people do. If we get a human level AGI with vision as high dynamic range as ours then maybe we can match human driving performance. See

You are right - I intended to say 2 Sq miles, not 4 Sq miles :)

People have studied the Xeon Max! Spoiler - yes, it's limited to ~23GB/s per core. It can't achieve anywhere close to the theoretical bandwidth of the HBM even, with all cores active. It's a pretty bad design in my opini

Which if this BYD site is 2x2 miles for ~5sq km, BASF is twice as large at 10sq km! Wow

Isn't that the open secret for El Cap? "Classified workloads" aka weapons sims.

Unless it's like, air gapped powered by a naval nuclear reactor, I feel like someone would question why a random US gov building is drawing 20-30MW of power, and exhausting most of that as heat...

Intel has failed pretty badly IMO. Fabbing at TSMC might actually have been a good idea, except that every other component of arrow like is problematic. Huge tile to tile latencies, special chiplets that are not reusable in any other design

I swear this was working for me until literally today, it was really useful to find older ML papers?!

Not true, the W790 chipset is purely for HEDT/workstations, distinct from the sapphire rapids server line. AMD also has an entire separate HEDT socket, sTR5 for threadripper CPUs. HEDT is alive and well!

Exactly as xnornet was doing way back in 2016 - shadow 32bit weights, quantized to 1 bit during the forward pass. https://arxiv.org/abs/1603.05279 I personally have a pretty negative opinion of the bitnet paper.

We just had a hand signal plus saying speak while holding a treat until she meowed at us, Then we gave it to her. I don’t actually recommend this, because it’s basically training them to always yell for food haha. And trying to train her to

Yep! If you have a food motivated cat, they can pretty easily pickup tricks - My cat knows sit, shake, speak, up, and 360. Not sure if higher lever words/concepts such as, it’s raining outside, are making it through.

Maybe, but these days, I believe microwave towers are preferred, lower latency and shorter paths. https://www.rec-usa.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/High-Freq...

Oh, so that’s why Cryptonomicon has so much detail/plot points about submarine cable laying!

I’m sure there are a few Neal Stephenson fans in the ranks of the Meta SysAdmin types! Hopefully there a few computers/systems/whatever named after things out of his books.

Yep, even though the 2.2x is a bug upgrade, I’m not actually sure that’s compelling enough? When the M1 Max won’t do usually I turn to a server with 4-10x the corecount…

That's interesting given Microsoft also has it's own accelerator, Maia...

Yes? I wasn’t making a claim that it was better to solder everything for everyone. I’m saying the overlap between most Apple users and those people is low.
470.
by buildbot 2y ago
Nope. Not reliable ones. The pin density on a bga memory is like, 0.3mm for the type typically used by apple. That’s 200 0.3mm pins that have to line up and work at 4GHz and survive you dropping it 5 feet.

by buildbot 2y ago
It won’t ever be able run as fast as a soldered system. Have you installed a server CPU? It’s really easy to fuckup and lose a few channels of memory due to the contact being bad. Right now I’ve got a 3647 Xeon phi cpu that’s refusing to tr

It does not apply to memory. It’s much harder to maintain signal integrity. 200+ 4GHz signals.

Yeah 100% agree on the last season. Maybe you know already; I heard it was canceled somewhat abruptly and they only got 6 episodes to wrap up the plot. With the conspiracy being that the ani-corporate message was getting too radical haha. I

I use my Q900R the same, it’s awesome. It’s so flexible: For couch gaming, 4k, 120Hz, VVR, 10bit and like, 1500 nit HDR. The downside is pretty clear blooming though. 8K 60Hz for sitting close and using for photo editing & programming.

I didn’t realize the Neuromancer was written in Vancouver! There’s a less well know cyberpunk adjacent TV show, Continuum, that’s set in Vancouver, year 2077 and all that :) It’s surprisingly good!

I hate how normalized this is. Breathing in a difficult to break down plastic dust is not something that seems healthy.

by buildbot 2y ago
I do! I’ve played around with it with this exact setup. It really depends on your processor, these toolchains really love a good mix of both high frequency and multi core. A hello world adder is less than a minute, a riscv core much much lo

This is one that you can use a fully open toolchain to build with: https://groupgets.com/products/orange-crab-85f-lattice-ecp5-... Which you can build a RISCV core + linux for using: https://github.com&#x2F

I think part of the issue is those routes are somewhat unknown ahead of time?
