> - It's not possible to set screen time restrictions for Safari.

I thought this too. I discovered it actually is possible though, just doesn't appear in the list. Go "Screen Time" -> "App Limits" -> "Add Limit". In the "Choose Apps" dialog, you won't see Safari in the list. But you can type "Safari" in the search bar and it'll appear.

But I agree with the overall sentiment on this thread. iOS Parental Controls aren't where they need to be.

If I understand correctly, Groq chips have 220MB SRAM and the next best level is DDR4? How many chips are needed to run Llama2-70B at those speeds?

The key constraint here is that the author has no access to persistent disks and can only use object storage for persistence. Otherwise Thanos would be extreme overkill for this number of metrics.

Single-node VictoriaMetrics can easily handle 1M metrics/sec

Hi, co-author here. Yes we are excited about the potential of this!

Hi, co-author here!

We use a pretty standard tech stack of PyTorch + NCCL + MPI. We've used both OpenMPI and MPICH to varying degrees.

Kubeflow is interesting, but it solves a slightly different problem of scheduling/coordinating ML workflows on top of Kube. It doesn't get involved with how an ML job communicates within itself cross-node.

Hi! Co-author here. We do keep the nodes running 24/7, so Kubernetes still provides the scheduling to decide which nodes are free or not at any given time. Generally starting a container on a pre-warmed node is still much much faster than booting a VM. Also, some of our servers are bare-metal.

EDIT: Also don't discount the rest of the Kubernetes ecosystem. It's more than just a scheduler. It provides configuration, secrets management, healthchecks, self-healing, service discovery, ACLs... there are absolutely other ways to solve each of these things. But when starting from scratch there's a wide field of additional questions to answer, problems to solve.
