Isn't this solving a subproblem of the overall issue of uncompressed tool call polluting context?

Furthermore, this could be compressed even further with a dynamic legend of every UUID in the context. So UUID@Bravo and UUID@Delta would be the actual symbols in the context but dynamically replaced when calling tools.

Regarding AVX: could rust be compiled with different symbols that target different x64 instruction sets, then at runtime choose the symbol set that is the more performant for that architecture?

First Revision - Completed with minimal human contribution (auto-accept mode) Second Revision - Planned with increased human-in-the-loop involvement

At least 'minimal human contribution' in the first revision. So scan read it as it revised the book.

I do find it amusing to think that people might just ask an AI to summarize the book instead of actually reading it. Maybe even 'review' it as well.

The future will have authenticity in short supply

Compilers are not yet rewriting data structures and algorithms based on microarchitecture.

Afaik mojo allows for this with the autotuning capability and metaprogramming

What data type/precision? How much parallelism versus iterative? Is this fully in fabric or part of a SoC? Easy to get mired in many details.

HW design has so many degrees of freedom which makes it fun but challenging.

What specific topics are you trying to address with this?

Newton Raphson could be used to calculate a reciprocal. (in a bit width larger than 8). If starting from a good reciprocal approximation, convergence to bit accurate reciprocal should not take many iterations. Then multiply the reciprocal with the numerator to perform the divide

It's also, if not more so, a factor of transistor voltage. 1.1V transistors are less prone to upset events than 0.7V. It's possible (assumption, here) that some 3+ volt circuits are still used for critical components of the system

Definitely buybait and a shame that a blatant advertisement has made to YC news front page. What's next? Novelty toothpaste for nerds?

If there _was_ a good reason to fire Sam, and the board had appropriately and clearly communicated their decision, I think less of the staff would have signed a the petition to walk. From the public's perspective, and probably most rank and file employees, this decision came from left field and had no logic behind it. The waffling and back peddling that followed certainly didn't help perception

nod.ai was just acquired by AMD for a chunk of money. I expect they hope to find a similar exit once they can show an end-to-end product: Take a model written in Pytorch, upcast it to mojo, and put it through their unified compiler stack to accelerate on <hardware>

Many Canadian aerospace engineers have never forgiven the government for dismantling Avro Canada’s CF-105 Arrow, a billion-dollar project that, on October 4, 1957—the same day that Russia sent the world’s first satellite into orbit—rolled out the fastest supersonic jet the world had ever seen.

Not just aerospace engineers, but if you ask just about any Canadian and we're all still super sour about this.

I agree that section is a bit confusing. The takeaway is that there are two 4bit formats they're using for weight compression E3M0 and E2M1.
