The key takeaway is hidden in the middle: > In extreme cases, on purely CPU bound benchmarks, we’re seeing a jump from < 1Gbit/s to 4 Gbit/s. Looking at CPU flamegraphs, the majority of CPU time is now spent in I/O sys

Can it be "Sny" or "Slony" (Simpsons nod)? Keep a fragment in, please, for discoverabilities sake!

Is this different from the KiTTY variant of PuTTY? https://www.9bis.net/kitty/index.html I'm just confused now, haha. What's in a name, anyways...

Yes, totally useful compared to default git base commands. And also - melding the "changed twice" (or thrice...) mutations into a single commit is a brilliant isolation of a subtle common pattern.

IMHO it should be a compiler error. This is just so loose... a wheel fell off.

Stating `backwards compatible` at a feature is at best confusing for readers who haven't already bought into JSON5 as "the way". If people tended to interpret English correctly and not be susceptible to misinterpreting writte

This reminds me conceptually of the Nvidia NIM factory where they attempt to optimize models in bulk / en-masse. https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/ai/nim-for-manufacturing/ Word on the street is the project h

Yes, explaining the "why / how did the SAT solver produce this answer?" can be more challenging than explaining some machine learning model outputs. You can literally watch as the excitement and faith of the execs happens whe

Could it be because some of the hardware in the 4090 overlaps with the Hopper (H100) architecture? If so, I imagine NV "fixed" this oversight with Grace Blackwell -based GPUs (5xxx series). There is too much at stake financially

Is it possible to extract the firmware and instead modify the blob? Or is the NV firmware cryptographically encrypted to disable such methods of tampering?

Why only 2x the ram? Wouldn't 96GB be even more optimum? Pretty awesome people went to the trouble to do this, casts some light on what is typically darkness on the consumer side of GPU product market segmentation. Capitalism wins eve

Do they credit your account if you were impacted? Or it's just "sorry 'bout 'dat month of trash"? Unfortunate timing, as I am rooting for Anthropic as the underdog, but feel compelled to use whatever works best. S
