How does that compare with rust? You don't happen to have an example of a binary underway moving to rust in Ubuntu-land as well? Curious to see as I honestly don't know whether rust is nimble like C or not.

Makes sense you have one of the boxes. What's your take on it? [Respecting any NDAs/etc/etc of course]

Probably the quants have higher perplexity, but the Sparks performance seems to be lack lustre. The reviewer videos I've seen so far tries their best not to offend Nvidia or, rather, not break their contracts.

Also remember that the Mx Ultras have 2-3x the memory bandwidth. Looking at the benchmarks even Strix Halo seems to beat the Spark. Buying a 200 Gbps switch is $10k-$100k+ so don't imagine anyone actually will use the interconnect. The

Well, that’s disappointing since the Mac Studio 128GB is $3,499. If Apple happens to launch a Mac Mini with 128GB RAM it would eat Nvidia Sparks’ lunch every day.

Neural nets are unstable during training and dynamic weights amplifies the problem. Thus, the neural networks could end up in totally unusable states at inference time.

by nialse 1y ago
Dynamical neurons are not used because they add enormous computational cost and instability for limited practical gain.

Real names? I have an old novelty account (not used) which still sends me updates via email from the family of the same name as the ready made meals company I was making fun of. At the same time you are completely right! Troll culture has e

That is indeed the paradox. What sometimes made true community possible, sometimes made exploitation easier. The line between the two is thin, and we’ve all seen both sides of it.

Common misunderstandings are that there was no control over the internet and that anonymity was for protecting freedom of expression of the individuals. The difference is that what once was covert in the West is now out in the open. Anonymi

Can someone shed a light on the phenomenon of US inventing enemies to compete with? What is driving the need for a race? Media? Listened to Dan Wang the other day who highlighted that the US vs China race is one sided. China is just doing i

In the 70's/80's you could fit a person in the engine bay of a Volvo. So, varying degrees of complexity and difficulty to fix things.

It is hard to discern if this is an uplifting story, or a rather depressing story about regaining lost basic manufacturing process skills. Any and all countries should be able to make basic and essential things.

Only 1 GB code maybe, but dependent on the universe as the runtime environment.

Hope is not an adequate security best practice. ;)

I’m not concerned about the overhead, there is always more and larger pieces of iron. Still not a good idea to mix executable code with data.
112.
by nialse 1y ago
Mixing data and code is a classic security mistake. Having one somewhat known individual involved doesn’t magically make it less of a mistake.

It's not a double edged sword. That is pure nonsense. Apple only needs to let OTHERS provide the protection service and we're done. Also, it is not the essence of the DMA.

They want the EU to solve an issue they caused themselves by abstaining from complying with the law? How convenient. If there ever was a valid reason to designate Apple a gatekeeper, this kind of behavior is it.

The line of thought is that a slow response makes the time windows of an eventually found vulnerability exploit longer. Thus, increasing its value.

Imagine if these “benevolent” erroneous AI bug reports were part of a coordinated effort to map how vulnerable the projects and maintainers are, not the code. Slow response, no response is a likely target for take over or exploits, and acce

I guess that AI will embody parts of our intelligence and experiences in the same way as we have assimilated our long term ancestors experiences. There are remnants of their system in our system. Parts that we might not be able to introspec

There is no such thing as perfect code, there is code that fills its purpose and there is code that does not fill its purpose.

If it did: Would it have incentives not to let us know about it?
