Skills are used to steer individual models towards desirable behaviors they don't exhibit by default. They're not Pokemon cards. They clutter your context, sometimes for essentially 0 benefit.

Throughput is useful if you want to generate a lot of transcripts for RL. It's for making Qwen better, not for actually using Qwen.

Most enduring sofware is always those "one-off prototypes" that people cook up over a few days.

I'd buy this (and gift it to everyone I'd think would like it) in an instant. Especially if you somehow included and refined the analysis you have in the blog posts.

Supply chain attacks can be mitigated with "golden chip analysis", you destructively analyse a known good chip after measuring various power and timing benchmarks across adversarial configurations, and repeat those measurements across all future chips and check they are within margin of error.

Different product at a different price point with different objectives. Security keys are suitable for mass deployment across an entire workforce, precursor aims to be a launchboard for general purpose secure and trustable computation. Even at mass production prices, precursor would likely still cost more than 100$.

Good at what they're being programmed for is a bit of tautology.

FPGAs being selected for performance per watt was only a fairly recent phenomenon, when they were deployed on semi large scale as password crackers/cryptocurrency miners.

Their real strength is ultimately real time processing (DSP or networking), with reconfigurability often quite valuable for networking applications. For DSP applications it's usually because a MOQ of custom silicon can't be justified.
