Surely, there are many realistic ways to abuse this powerful technology, the creation of a self-aware Paperclip Maximizer is not necessarily required.

I stand corrected. If it's already suboptimal in practice to begin with, the hack does not more it more suboptimal... Still, disabling large BAR size is still sub-optimal...

Both can be true at the same time. The world's superpowers enforce nuclear non-proliferation mainly because it allows them to keep unfair political and military advantages to themselves. At the same time, one cannot deny that centraliz

Which is why politicians are going to enforce systematic export regulations to defend the "free world" by stopping “terrorists", and also to stop "rogue states" from using AI to oppress their citizens. /s

Except that in the computer hardware world, the 1250 kVA transformer was used not because of shortage, but because of the fact that making a 1250 kVA transformer on the existing production line and selling it as 200 kVA, is cheaper than cre

It's more difficult to split your work across 6 GPUs evenly, and easier when you have 4 or 8 GPUs. The latter setups have powers of 2, which for example, can evenly divide a 2D or 3D grid, but 6 GPUs are awkward to program. Thus, the O

No. The Nvidia A100 has a multi-lane NVLink interface with a total bandwidth of 600 GB/s. The "unlocked" Nvidia RTX 4090 uses PCIe P2P at 50 GB/s. It's not going to replace A100 GPUs for serious production work, but

Ironically, USB SS is more implementable than USB HS without a dedicated PHY. USB SS's PHY is just standard CML differential signaling used for almost all modern high-speed protocols like PCIe or SATA (but with an LFPS extension for li

> This seems ridiculous on its face Chip designs routinely use energy metrics like picojoules per bit to express the hardware's power budgets and efficiencies, generalizing these kinds of figure of merit to software seems natural.

It's a combination of both aspects. The first point is that LPDDR5 chip's operating frequency today has reached an all-time high of 9600 MT/s, and the latest off-the-shelf laptops (Intel Meteor Lake) are running at 7467 MT&#x

Emacs has Evil Mode for simulating a modeful editor with vi-style keybinding. Vim now has an extension to do the opposite thing. It would be extra amusing if it supports Emacs-style keybindings (but it doesn't).
