You must be miserable in your job. All the good engineers I know would gladly take some pay cut to be able to do projects like this.

That's the point, you'd think any browsers should be fine? But only Firefox was approved after OpSec department did their research. There were definitely something that made them very unhappy about Chromium to ban it wholesale.

Because that would require a lot of RAM for the multi-user switch to work flawlessly. They cheap out and force the processing onto your iPhone. It's a glory square CarPlay screen ..

One would've thought that the display data bus would be encrypted/scrambled in such a device, or at least packaged in a way that makes this kind of attack destructive to the circuit board (chip-on-glass).

Amateur hour all around.

That's weird. I used to work in a very secure facility (think actual air-gapped supercomputers where network access is building-LAN only) and Firefox was the only approved browser.

It's one of those things that the technical aspect is simple but the paperwork dehumanizes me. Just a couple more bullshit engineering design documents to generate

I just un-retire my pair of 1080Ti for some small models development because the current GPU prices literally make me sad.

More than 70% of H1B in tech is from a single country, where cheating is considered a normal aspect of life. I'm sure most people here have at least once encountered this cultural difference in their day to day work.

While I still think H1B program is needed, it has to be revamped, putting cap per country is the most obvious first step.

This is a very well known tactic in H1B factory like Tata and Cognizant, people has been complaining about this for years. Not sure about Microsoft though.

It shows that nlogn is not the limit, how much better we can go? Not sure, probably not much, but breaking the barrier is important. Like in marathon for years nobody thought human could break the 2 hour barrier, then someone did and now it's become normal occurrences.

Multiplication can be done by FFT, which is an exceptionally efficient algorithm that has nlogn complexity, you'd be called crazy if you claim you have something more efficient than FFT.

Both, especially for training. Astra and Fable were presumably trained on cluster of 100,000k GPUs, or at least a couple of 10Ks.

3,800 GPUs is nothing in the frontier side.

ASCII was amazingly efficient for conveying English text. Then we needed to encode multi languages and emojis, the resulting Unicode is just a mess.

We are snowballing to Minority Report ...
