My carnivorous garden is really taking off this spring! In these photos: American pitcher plants, terrestrial bladderworts, a variety of sundews, and (of course) venus fly traps.

My carnivorous garden starting to come back from its winter dormancy! Love this time of year.

Making LLMs run efficiently can feel scary, but scaling isn’t magic, it’s math! We wanted to demystify the “systems view” of LLMs and wrote a little textbook called “How To Scale Your Model” which we’re releasing today. 1/n

I think my favorite line of Python code I've ever encountered is
curry = partial(partial, partial)
So simple, but also breaks your brain
curry = partial(partial, partial)

All I want for Christmas is cinematic back-story of the pigeon lady from Home Alone 2... Dresses like a Dickensian pauper in NYC in the 90s, with a hint of an Irish accent? Has access to the attic of the Lincoln Center? Controls Central Park's birds? WHO IS THIS LADY?

Spent some time this week digging into the Python array API standard (data-apis.org/array-api/la... ) and implementing some initial support in JAX. It's a cool project – interested to see where it goes!
