Indeed! Especially relevant because almond milk is sold at a profit, which is something the LLM industry has yet to achieve.

It's really weird to me that datacenter fans all have detailed knowledge of almond farming, but never seem to notice that the nutritional value of ChatGPT is not on par with your average box of almond milk.

It's TSMC N6. What does that information benefit you? We're still talking about a boutique chip that's not going to outperform anything from the past decade's worth of amd64 products.

Then you can make a tidy profit upgrading to the Fairphone 6 series and selling your phone to someone who wants that functionality. What is the point you're trying to make? We already knew different people have different preferences.

Probably one of the lower level officers who billed hundreds of hours less overtime than the union head.

Previous versions of the Fairphone did have USB3, and also Displayport Alt Mode, so you could plug the phone into a display and use Android Desktop. There's more to a given version of USB than line rate.

Big pharma won't hire anyone they can't push around. This means people who expect decent salaries and only working forty hours a week need not apply.

This article is syndicated from The Epoch Times, a hard-right Falun Gong mouthpiece pretty well known for spreading conspiracy theories and extremely partisan reporting.

Sure, that's one approach. Testing those changes takes time when you're working on a whole operating system and a ports tree. More time than cutting a new gcc release, as it turns out.

There is more than one C specification, and with each new release of GCC several things that used to emit warnings are newly treated as errors.

If your argument is "this is unenforceable" and "failure to enforce is a low-stakes problem" then I'm not sure what your concerns are, other than a desire to control how others choose to spend their time. Either o

As best as you can. I don't know why people keep asking this question, when the answer is obvious and exactly like all other contribution policies. In this case, this is coming from Oracle, which holds the OpenJDK purse strings, so be

The point the commenter is making is that your company will not remain a two digit billion dollar revenue company in the top 100 for long unless they have someone whose job it is to figure out how much profit is being made from those tokens

It always made more sense as the host CPU; the Knights Landing product was vastly more useful. The problem has always been hanging your compute on the far end of a PCI bus. In AI when you're just shipping FP16 around it doesn't

Hard to have vendor lock-in without vendors! Not that I think anyone should be lining up to produce what appear to be clones of the Intel Xeon Phi.

They "shoot themselves in the foot" by only offering it in a billion-and-a-half-person market? Not sure how. The sales numbers in ROW are probably a rounding error compared to India. Also HMD already sells that other product you
