What if you're formatting your own SD cards for Raspberry Pi, and need control over the partition layout, filesystem, etc. Surely there are some best practices that this tool embodies, which one can follow to achieve the same level of robustness and performance?

The latest Pi OS writes all logs to RAM, which might change your experience.

They decided to use the silicon space for other things. The Pi5 CPU is powerful enough to decode most h264 streams in software. The Pi5 has an h265 hardware decoder.

You need active cooling if you want to extract all the performance out of it. The standard cooling kits sold by Raspberry Pi are neat and cheap though, so not a problem in my experience. They have two options: A case with a fan on top, and a small heatsink + fan combo. The fans run at variable speed, so generally pretty quiet.

Who actually uses multipath?

It's interesting that the standard "K" (number of elements with a shared scale) is 32. That seems to imply that the neural network will somehow learn to group weights at those 32-element boundaries. Does anybody understand how that works? I mean, what is the mechanism that naturally causes the model to group weight scales into those K-element clusters?

Haha. I first read that headline as "Hans Niemann dies using vibrating sex toy"

TL;DR: The December 5th experiment was about proving to ourselves and our adversaries that we still understand how to build and validate nuclear weapons, despite the ban on testing.

It's conceivable that within a year or two, Copilot will be good enough to make the pain of the CMake language much more bearable.
