does anyone still make gpus for graphics anymore?

the point is that rust is the wrong tool for the job, imo. Compilers are notorious for not managing memory
573.
by vrighter 1y ago
yes, but that is neither here nor there. You can create a memory leak perfectly cromulently in rust too
574.
by vrighter 1y ago
judging by the improvements section at the bottom, no. But it's written in rust! Look how memory safe a program with a couple of seconds total runtime is! (don't mind the logic bugs)

It's not that I don't care. It's that I actively despise and avoid stuff like this. It's that these types of things typically say exactly nothing in a lot of words. It's a good opportunity to play buzzword bingo t

i heard from an airport employee once that they wanted to keep the airplane started in between flights. This was specifically so they can skip the preflight checks. Thankfully they were not allowed to

replace the word "training" with "convincing" and it starts making more sense

if by "conceptual developments" you don't mean "a total paradigm shift to some non-probabilistic architecture that hasn't been discovered yet", then yes, they are a hard constraint of current LLM architectures

It would require some sort of ai that actually works, not fakes it, to do so. If you had that, then you'd be using it directly. It's a chicken and egg situation.

not really our problem though is it?

it can depend on whatever the oldest thing in the context window is, but not anything older

yeah but that state can be as big as you want. say, for example, the state could be a vector of a million tokens...

Exactly. To add to that, I'd like to point out that when this person says every joule, he is not exaggerating (only a teeny tiny bit). The actual computation itself barely uses any energy at all.

There's no such thing as "llm hallucinations". For there to be there has to be an objective, rigorous way to distinguish them from non-hallucinations. Which doesn't exist. They walk like the "good" output, they

how many minutes long was each shot? Please use scientific notation

yep, they have to justify the spend. Where I work they've literally disabled our ability to disable it via group policy. Statistical manipulation

but why???? If i have already gotten off my ass to go throw the clothes in it and so I'm literally standing right next to it, in what universe won't I just press "start" and instead press a bunch of buttons to set up a t

they don't require constant maintenance. They are forced to receive constant maintenance. Ex if you don't release updates, you get delisted. But you wrote a calculator app. What updates and maintenance does it require that wasn&#x

Writing the mindless boilerplate is when I'm thinking about the next step. If I didn't write it, i'd still have to take the time to think things through for the next step.

There was a project posted here once that didn't even bother saying what the thing even was!

Chips can be and are tested automatically. It's not like there are people running beside a conveyor belt with a microscope. So no, it's not the same thing. One doesn't need people, while the other one does. Also, a fab is int

If I am good at the most boring part of my job, I get to do that and only that from here on out? No thank you. Also, the article is wrong, it's always better for a bug not to be in there in the first place, than to be there and possi

Which sort of unit is a "sq ft in sq in" and why would they have coded it in the parser as one? It's only ambiguous if it's explicitly coded badly to induce ambiguity.

they built their own house for €25k. And only my dad worked. I bought a much smaller place for over €200k. Both me and my girl (need to) have full time jobs. There is a big difference between where they started vs where I did. I will never

by saying "we have free speech" in this context, you are inadvertently admitting that you actually don't know what the right to free speech actually is. Rule of thumb: if neither party is the government, free speech is not re
