My prediction is that this becomes permanent. There is no good reason to be much more expensive than opus. At $4/$20 they are roughly at parity. Making 2/10 permanent would be a killer move and make a strong argument against open-

how does this compare to Arrow IPC / Feather v2?

The fact that GPT-4.1 was the judge does not convince of the validity of the bench.

This is not true in my experience. Cranking out code is obviously the bottleneck, unless you have the luxury of working on a very narrow problem. The author describes a multi-modal project that does not afford this luxury.

Complete nonsense. Intel 18A, were yields good enough, is competitive with TSMC N2.

Based on their heavily biased view of the Gaza conflict, based on their Arabic affiliations and the Hamas-run Gaza government’s reporting.

LoRA and QLoRA are still fine tuning I thought? Just updating a subset of parameters. You are still training a base model that was pre-trained (and possibly fine tuned after).

You can’t possibly be naive enough to believe that Nvidia’s Titan class cards were designed exclusively for gamers.

Yes there should be. We don’t want to pay literal 10x markup because the card is suddenly “enterprise”.

> Writing naive algorithms Depends on the circumstance, and how difficult an appropriate algorithm is to write, but in my experience, if code performance is important, this tends to yield large, painful rewrites down the road.

2.5-3 micrograms per deciliter is nothing. Wouldn’t even come up as elevated by current childhood screening guidelines. I very much doubt 2-3 IQ point difference.

This is not what premature optimization is the root of all evil means. It’s a tautological indictment of doing unnecessary things. It’s not in support of making obviously naive algorithms. And if it were it wouldn’t be a statement worth foc

I read it as “most people don’t connect put 2 and 2 together - the doctor could be the boys father”. It is poorly worded, but not strictly wrong I think?

Correct. An open source project that doesn’t receive in kind development cost reduction benefit from free contributors should not stay open source.

It makes sense to anyone who has tried to build open source software as a sustainable business. It doesn’t make sense to people who contribute small hobby projects or work as researchers / are government funded, which means ultimately

In reality open source is very difficult to build a business around, which means that software can’t exist long term. It’s not about not wanting to be open source, it’s about realising that you and your employees livelihoods are being abuse

Then think of what it means if you have a person in their 40's that is really investing times in startups. Either they're stupid or they are committed in a way that 20 year olds likely aren't.

I don’t think they have a plan B. Architectures take half a decade of work. Porting from risc-v to arm is not a matter of a backup plan, it’s that of a very costly pivot.

This is so stupid. If you want to not be fat, exercise and eat fewer calories. Full stop. The fact that a certain group of individuals don’t have that self control is just evidence that education and public health have a place. Drugs won’t

Batching helps, and if you can avoid syncing after every write that helps too. In practice I get great throughout, but then I’m OK with losing a small amount of data if my server dies during writes, as long as that doesn’t lead to corruptio
