Atherton closed their station in 2020 and, through a great twist of irony, it will become a museum for the line that's still alive next to it: https://inmenlo.com/2025/06/16/commun…

It's been a while since I thought about this but isn't the reason providers advertise only 3.2tbps because that's the limit of a single node's connection to the IB network? DGX is …

Bazel makes easy things hard and impossible things possible

I had this problem and complained to AT&T support. I know it doesn't make sense to replace the modem because this is a software, not hardware, issue but they very quickly offered t…

This is both a good thing and a bad thing, but Pulumi is way more flexible than Terraform. I wanted to have a cloud-provider-specific submodule that created resources (like EKS and…

I found that using "helm template" to convert every Helm chart into yaml, and then using Pulumi to track changes and update my clusters (with Python transformation functions to get…

1979 16 bit flops on an H100 is with sparsity. See footnote 2 on https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/data-center/h100/ . You should be halving it for non-sparse flops.

It's worth noting that just because an H100 has a higher flops number doesn't mean your program is actually hitting that number of flops. Modern TPUs are surprisingly competitive w…

Cool stuff! Do you have any thoughts about how this compares to https://github.com/fabianlindfors/reshape ?

Luiz called large meetings "all-heads" instead of "all-hands" meetings. "Why? Because we're not sailors!" I never got to interact with him directly but he was a leader worth follow…

Ahh this is a good idea, my friend in fact has been asking me to add it forever. I've been hesitating since the data seems so sparse but I think you're both right. Thank you for th…

A website making trail data from OpenStreetMap easily browsable: https://trailcatalog.org/ Myself and a friend have been working on this for quite a while. It's frustrating because…

Because they've limited the dynamism of Python so you can't do as much crazy runtime nonsense, their (vaporware) tech stack is able to (theoretically) compile more of your program …

I built a cross of React + Wiz (a fantastic frontend framework at Google): https://github.com/aschleck/trailcatalog/tree/main/js/corgi . Totally irresponsible and probably full of …

I wrote this post to try and give candidates more insight into what it feels like to be a technical coding interviewer, what we're looking for, and in the hope that more candidates…
