Host to device bandwidth (ram to vram) is 128Gb/s for PCIe Gen 6. VRAM to GPU bandwidth is 1.8Tb/s for GDDR 7 (5090), and 8Tb/s for HBM3e (B200). So it can be faster to recompute than offload kv cache.

The Little Learner is a great book. I tried rewriting all the code in Python/JAX while following the Scheme code style as closely as possible, and it worked out great.

The appendix on autodiff is a bit rushed, in my opinion. But in all fairness, the number of pages would probably need to be doubled to give a proper exposition of autodiff.

There is FxHashMap (https://github.com/rust-lang/rustc-hash) which is faster than std::collections::HashMap.

With ~100 static entries, o1hash (https://github.com/rurban/smhasher/blob/master/o1hash.h) should also work.

I am wondering if AlphaStar is the most expensive paper ever.

The VM disk corruption problem has been affecting all open source Apple hvf hypervisors. lima with vfkit or UTM are most promising ones for now: https://github.com/lima-vm/lima/issues/1957#issuecomment-182..., https://github.com/lima-vm/lima/pull/2026, https://github.com/utmapp/UTM/pull/5919

I liked Multipass until I ran into storage corruption issues like many others [1][2] and broke all my VMs. On MacOS, Multipass uses qemu in which the apple-hvf support isn't getting much updates after 2021 [3].
