It is a neat approach, but one that comes with a tradeoff, IIUC: doubling the key heads. I wonder if a different approach without that issue exists. For instance, using max(0, exp(x)-1) instead of exp(x) in the softmax attention formula. Th

We can make informed guesses. Such attackers likely use the same TCP stack and datacenter within the attack, so perhaps the cipher suite, the latency (based off the Date header?), the OS, the UA, the set of HTTP headers sent, are some of th

I don’t know Radix, so perhaps they use a different merge algorithm than the standard one. The article indicates, though, that nondeterminism was a bug that the company fixed. It does sound like it relies on validators, so perhaps they don’

It is deterministic: the local updates must be grouped into a block linking to the longest-known chain, and the block is broadcast; upon receiving a block, all nodes must locally revert operations that are no longer part of the deepest chai

I would say blockchains fit this definition. What I get away from that is that this definition is not restrictive enough. Similarly, a list of operations with Lamport timestamps fits this definition. However, just like the blockchain, it ma
