Scripts with AI low quality “movie” with blocking etc is an interesting concept. Manga to anime already exists. Commercials, particularly for social/online, already happening as well.

I too come from a time of worrying about memory access patterns and usage (pre virtual memory in hardware), so my initial reaction is like the parent comment, at least instinctively. And yes, memcpy is fast, but I would not use a little pro

This will be fun with crypto. You assessed yesterday and it shot up in value and I take it off your hands at 3am.

I hear you. However, I have one rule of writing: assume the reader is lazy. It is not that they are, but the assumption goes a long way in making content digestible. Also, I think knowing the combined effect is super interesting. For exampl

Many more years than that. And it must be general enough. Otherwise you optimize for A in hardware and 5yr later when producing chips, A is no longer revenant and everyone moved to B.

I do wish that when people write about optimization that they would then multiply by usage, or something similar. Another way is to show CPU usage over a fleet of servers before and after. And then reshuffle the servers and use fewer and us

Good default configurations can mean quite a lot if people don’t tune them.

Applied Semantics for $100m which gave them their advertising business seems like their best deal.

The problem is that the competition (our current von neumann architecture) has billions of dollars of R&D per year invested. Better architectures without the yearly investment train will no longer be better quite quickly. You would need

China blocks services all the time. I was one of the original 10 blocked by the great firewall of china. And starlink can be traced. It’s only time before some people start getting arrested.

Agree. People now might think a 5 minute call is a deep dive. Haha.

Will there even be a GTP-5? Maybe next up is o2 then o3 and so on.

Oh god, that’s terrible! I wonder how many years that will take. Five years?

Recalls that can be fixed with over the air updates is a large financial reason to connect cars to the internet. Personally, I’d rather connect to my WiFi where I have control, but that’s a lot to ask for regular consumers.

At least both of these databases support clustered indexes. For decades.

California tends to work this way. Rent control (government chosen pricing) tends to affect only older buildings, not new ones, and is for rent increases not original rent. Places that implemented it (SF, Santa Monica, West Hollywood) now h

In the 1990s, I was working on eCommerce and was sent to our factory in another state for a week to understand that side of the needs, then a few days at a customers place of business in another state. This was a government contractor. Unde

When I started doing it, I had built all the servers myself. By the end, I still don’t have DRAC running, but it would have been nice to.

Remote controlled power strip. Turn off and on a server that looks bricked to see if you can recover without remote hands.

I think of summaries as the text equivalent of averaging. Some high frequency stuff you don’t want to loose in that case are things like proper names, specific dates, etc. In the face of such signal, you don’t want to average it out to a “h

What would be good for DRAM read speeds, and not care too much write speeds? I’m thinking of keeping an LLM’s weights in a storage RAM, where it would be updated only every few months.

I think of minimization as doing things like taking deductions, and avoidance as creating confusing structures of new entities in order to take advantage of gray areas and deciding that the cost of getting caught is not material.

Agreed. Will be interesting if there is a teardown or not.
