What are you referring to? The benchmark includes the step to convert to unix time int, at the end of sse_parse_time() even handling leap years.

Ok 8 bit unsigned ints and zero padded month, and then they do the zero saturated subtract. I hadn't made it to the second check, doh.

Why does month in the limit vector go to 19?

You're right, EFA is custom nitro NICs. Although Mellanox (now Nvidia ConnectX) is not solely Inifiband either - Nvidia offers them with Ethernet upto 400GbE as well, same speed as EFA says on the label.

Indeed. The AWS p4 instances are wired together by the next generation NVLink/NLink internconnect (600 GB/s bidirectional bandwidth) and also the Elastic Fabric Adapters (400 GB/s) which is likely Mellanox under the covers.

In terms of terraflops, AWS likely has the largest GPU compute capacity out there, and they could use idle GPU capacity to train their models, and Anthorpic has some top tier researchers building it. Give it time.

Agree with the first part, short duration implies lower volatility. But we know that T-bills are zero coupon bonds, so holders are not receiving interest payments along the way, the interest is built into the redemption price. So forced sel

No reboots for non-kernel updates would still be a win imho. Because these are rolling releases not point releases, and updates snapshots are pulled daily by default (and therefore daily reboots are/were recommended), so its likely onl
