Fun fact: prices of DDR5 are at a near-high right now and over 50% more expensive than a few months ago :(

I just get pointed to the mention of DOE’s new public-private partnership model. But I’m failing to find out more information. Same thing with the new 100K GPU NVIDIA system at ALCF.

I thought Lux was the OCI partner system. Discovery is OLCF-6 and doesn’t include Oracle.

I’ve found every thunderbolt cable that I’ve used has a clearly marked ⚡️logo on the ends.
Granted, my sample size is 3 and I believe all came from Apple.

It’s a wonderful game… So many expansions and high replay value, too!

I want them to be successful because I think something else is needed. But running large apps at scale is always gonna be a bottleneck for any non von Neumann architecture.

- SambaNova’s RDU dataflow execution vs Next Silicon’s Mill execution are very, very different (a priori static vs dynamic)
- For Next Silicon, unlikely/non-parallel can execute on device via RISC — which is something that Samba Nova cannot handle at all(?)
- SW stack is completely different
