    > It fits into the system's file cache unless there is memory pressure, like one would expect from having 24 C++ compiler jobs running in parallel. We actually measured this in iso…

    The point was rather that reverse engineering the CAN-bus protocol or existing software that already does it for your vehicle of interest is now by far easier through the usage of …

    I think what the parent comment sentiment was that having this knowledge generally does not pay off but there are certainly positions which do ask for it specifically. And they are…

    To do some optimization work with SIMD what you actually need to understand is the underlying CPU uarchitecture, intrinsics by the end of the day are just an API. But to also make …

    I'm interested in more details around ceph if you can share. What type of setup, what database, any fine-tuning, what type of workloads, dataset volume etc. I'm asking because when…

    Please see my other comment wrt Nord. What I am talking about is that flagship phones from OnePlus are suffering from the issues I described. I can't say every one of each suffers …

    I am not an idiot, I am not keeping my phone on direct sunlight neither do I run on "very high brightness". The phone runs hot on normal circumstances, and in summer when the tempe…

    I had a similar issue with OnePlus 7 but not at this scale. It lasted me for 3, 3.5 years. I think this is becoming a problem more increasingly because of a beefier and beefier har…

    My last one was 10 pro and battery is essentially dead after 2.5 years of usage. Can't make half of a day, literally unusable, and I'm not a big phone user. Case is made of some re…

    After two years your battery will be almost unusable so genuinely it doesn't matter. My only issue with oneplus phones, and I owned several of them already, is that they are runnin…

    Sorry, what? Passing a pointer is a matter of wrapping the value into the CPU register. OTOH passing an offset into a shared memory is a write to main memory so several magnitudes …

    Obviously, transformers architecture is just one of the ingredients. Otherwise we wouldn't be seeing competing labs in this race. I also read all his interviews as a marketing mate…

    SIMD programmers have to be paid very well then in the China ... Jokes aside, some 2 or 3 years ago I thought that it is becoming inevitable for CPU designs to become an extended v…

    No, they don't force the model to use a json schema, they simply use the model to extract the data, and then they feed that OCR result into the pipeline further to evaluate the OCR…

    Quite unlucky CPU to run the experiments. The article doesn't mention it but I hope that the measurement numbers OP got were extracted by re-running the experiment on same type of …

    I am not totally following this area but the link from a commenter from above suggests that it is not SOTA but on the lower end (but still good): https://getomni.ai/blog/benchmarki…

    That's extremely cheap. I wonder how the companies making a living out of this will survive. They certainly don't charge $0.004 per scan.

    I don't think you're wrong. Virtual functions is a two-pointer dereference operation (vptr, vtable[vptr]), and there we can have a d-cache miss but the main cost of using virtual f…

    You're missing the point that when you're building the product, and not using SBC just for fun, the image you are building, and yes even the userspace, is highly customized. Runnin…
