Then why is the 100 kB test the slowest, with a max speed of 115 Mb/s? And no upload test gets above 250 Mb/s. The speed is very clearly throttled by the ISP though, they sell a faster package that I don't need. I'm not

It's just a matter of mirroring the kernel, and since the kernels are learned I don't really see the big deal. I guess the usage of the term convolution comes from image processing and other DSP where it used to be actual convolut

No no, you don't understand, the war was started by Poland! They attacked Germany in the Gleiwitz incident, you have to get unbiased news from both sides to properly assess the situation and stay truly neutral and enlightened.

There's one thing I haven't quite grasped about transformers. Are the query, key, and value vectors trained per token? Does each token have specific QVK vectors in each head, or does each attention head have one set that are train

Look at it as if it's using unused parts of the signal spectrum to fit in another signal instead. Sometimes less error resilience in exchange for more data is a worth while trade, see for instance 256-QAM compared to 4-QAM (although no

You would think Reddit would have made an AMA sorting mode that surfaces OP's answers even when they're heavily downvoted by now, since it's been a thing for years, but it doesn't seem like a priority for them.
