Yeah the shielding is to not cook your eyeballs if you observe the food, and to not cook anything else outside of the chamber, including e.g. your phone's wifi receiver.

AFAIK it's the other side of the die from a "delidded" view. So, they desoldered the die, then etched/ground at it until the surface coating was gone, and just the semiconductor structure remains. Due to the sub-micromet

Funnily that's applicable to balancing unswept flying wings, as all high lift/low drag airfoils are unstable in pitch (though many are stable for inverse flight, i.e. if you get scared you'd have to turn upside down and are s

Well, you still don't get fine-grained random deletions on Zoned NVMe. Also, there is another storage target which expects append-only style: SMR HDDs. They don't support random writes into a zone.

You could quite easily check if anything you care about was touched by the previous lock holder, so that they could indeed write everything but the root in parallel/concurrently. E.g. note batched operations, like "insert list ele

Materializing the attention matrix has you slower than FlashAttention much of the time, just because you get severely memory bandwidth bound and are worse off than mild extra computations resulting from streaming it (and especially re-compu

You can easily use pipeline-parallelism though. Especially if you have 8-16 lanes of PCIe4 with direct P2P access between the cards. IIRC you want micro-batching though, to overlap pipeline phases.

Transformers don't need quadratic memory for attention unless you scale the head dimension proportional to the sequence length. And even that can be tamed. The arithmetic intensity of unfused attention is too low on usual GPUs; it'

I could imagine transmissive at the belly button to work out with decent design effort, or maybe around the ear. Nostrils seem unlikely to be comfortable, but would probably work fine.

Also it's basically an Mi50 in a trench coat. You could buy a 32 GiB version labeled Mi60, initially with a single mini DP port making it IMO classify as "graphics card" not "compute accelerator".

The feed forward layer is essentially a differentiable key-value store. Similar to the attention layer, actually. So it just uses an attention mechanism like pre-selector to attend to only some experts. During inference, this cutoff is made

Actually somewhat better, even: you can let it control the rate factor of your video encoder directly, getting perceptual fairness instead of simple naive bandwidth fairness.
