My programming background is that I started in High School in Java, and then moved to a C and C++ workload in my college courses, and then in my later college years I picked up Python for research work. The importance of this trajectory, is

I remember several years ago when differentiable programming was an object of interest to the programming community and Lattner was trying to make Swift for Tensorflow happen[1]. I'm of the opinion that it was ahead of its time: Swift

MoE is all about tradeoffs. You get the "intelligence" of a 45B model but only pay the operational cost of multiplying against 12B of those params per token. The cost is that it's now up to the feedforward block to decide ear

That is a very fun fact! I have yet to make the leap to manga, but learning this definitely encourages me to do so. I've been been thinking about taking the first leap with the Berserk Deluxe Edition, but have yet to take the leap.

This reminds me of the scene in Ghost in the Shell when the man approaches the terminal and then each of his fingers subdivide into thin metal wires, flurrying across the terminal’s interface. I wonder how research is going w.r.t. augmentin

Going to use this comment thread to field an opinion of mine to see if it's worth elaborating on further: Python added an infix operator for matrix multiplication back in 2014, and the prevalence of "Python+NumPy for data analysis

IMO the reason PDF tools are bad on linux has a lot to do with history. Per Wikipedia, PDF is a standard that was originally developed by Adobe. It was a proprietary standard for ~15 years before it became an open standard. Nowadays, the re

I've only done a quick read through the link, but I think the model they imply is that a malicious user could rent a Cloud VM in AWS/Azure/GCP/etc and then sniff the contents of SIMD registers, similar to the Zenbleed at
