Are there any Imagination gpu drivers this time around or is this another unusable Imagination gpu, alike Intel GMA500 / Poulsbo a decade & a half ago?

I get that it's a story, but I can't help but chuckle at some of the situational irony, that so much of the enduring longlasting bits of computing are the little bricks. The coreutils, posix, and the various little options added t

I really have to wonder if anyone can compete with this kind of systems integration capability. A core having 900GBps connectivity to the cluster memory at such relative low power is epic beyond words. 800Gbps ethernet across PCIe is uncomp

It sucks that so often the various troubles here are true, but it also sucks that we are so hopelessly fatalistic & degrading about passion. This post covers most of the typical angles, and they're all bad, all roundly degrade ever

Yeah. Functional components are right sized. You can still decompose & hack off pieces nicely, into helpers or hooks. Just because CS has heavier weight classical structures we can apply doesn't mean they're better. And undern

It's not a fast nor available option. No one is going to commute this way regularly. We're talking about trains, and to me, the occasional trip is not the active question: it's what we do day by day. This ain't it.

Then you overbuild the pack. The criticism of the new EV hummer's pack is an example, and it didn't even need swappability, is just trying to get the batteries to stay adequately in place. https://insideevs.com/new

It'd be awesome if we could get the utilization ratio up. Any given section of highway has a vehicle over it let's say 1% of the time. Rail's utilization factor has got to be 1% of that. My Sci fi dream is carrier trains, whe

Chargers that pop out of the curb. Yes please. Here in DC we have a lot of food trucks, and their fumes and noise is a sad mark upon the area. I dream of a law where these things could be connected to the grid instead. Right now that's

Most people want to build things not cores, the cores aren't the core competency. So the hope is, release what cores you have & let others improve it for you. Western Digital's swer-v core is seemingly an example of this think
