Those control flow ops aren't even supported on many backends. I know tensor rt doesn't support them for example, at least today. Removing control flow isn't as easy as you'd think for some. It essentially means ripping

I am so confused by metas ecosystem. Perhaps others have the same issues. I have mountains of torchscript code. It worked fine for me - had no issues making the python compatible. Torchscript is now deprecated, and the ostensible replacemen

I think my real problem is that xilinx pushes the gui flows heavily. It is extremely annoying to configure the mpsoc fabrics entirely outside of vivado. Same thing for using any of their bundled IP.

Does it actually creates a unified memory pool? it looks more like an accelerated backend for a collective communications library like nccl, which is very much not unified memory.

Might be helpful if they actually provided a programming model for ANE that isn't onnx. ANE not having a native development model just means software support will not be great.

why exactly do you need a deity to tell you to love your fellow man? Do you need god in your life to want to love your children? I think this is not quite right. I don't expect that the desire to create these tools independent of outco

How does fex deal with the fact that the memory model on arm is weak and x86 is total store ordering. It seems like would need to hammer performance by putting memory barriers everywhere to handle all cases. Perhaps fex only works when ther

yeah that is correct. The m series chips can turn on total store ordering memory model solely for Rosetta. There's also some hardware extensions to arm to support x86 condition codes in the hardware because it's way more instructi

A 5090 is likely 3x the cost of the steam machine. You are at the extreme high end of the gaming market here and not the target of the steam machine.

I have a lot of the details there. Suffice to say it's a nightmare: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=8997844... AMD is likely to back away from this IP relatively soon.

The neural engine not having a native programming model makes it effectively a dead end for external model development. It seems like a legacy unit that was designed for cnns with limited receptive fields, and just isn't programmable e

I think I'd still rather have the hardware area put into tensor cores for the GPU instead of this unit that's only programmable with onnx.

MLX doesn't use the neural engine still right? I still wish they would abandon that unit and just center everything around metal and tensor units on the GPU.

I think the bigger deal for founders is that Nvidia can decide at a whim to deny you supply or, better yet give 100 billion dollars to your competitor.

POE is an quite expensive thing to implement on a board. Flyback transformers are essentially required to support the standard.

The em4 does not cost 10000 dollars. It is going to sell for well under 1000$. Hesai's low end ATX is supposed going to be less than 300$, and the AT128 already sells for 400-500$.

Why do all of you think prices haven't come down? I can buy an AT128 from hesai for a few hundred dollars in volume. It's higher performance than any spinning lidar I could buy in 2017.

Lidar is being manufactured in china in the volume of millions a year by robosense, Huawei, and hesai. Bom cost is on the order of a few hundred dollars - slightly more than automotive radar. The situation is a lot different in 2025 than in

It actually requires substantially less maintenance time if you look at the equivalent force it replaces, for example the associated awacs capability needed for a sortie for previous gen fighters. Honestly, it's just absurd to think th
