If we run out of IPv6 addresses, there is either something wrong with how we are using it or our current understanding of the universe. There’s 2¹²⁸ IPv6 addresses and about 2³³ people on Earth.

It would also mean that Vance is restricted to being elected to one term after this one. If Vance takes office before January 20 at noon, it counts as a term for him because it will be just over 2 years.

In this day and age, no clue. You have to look way back to find a decent prominent Republican, possibly Eisenhower.

I added a rule in my .htaccess for their user agents to direct all requests to a static page on my domain.

If wishes were fishes, we’d all eat well.

Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth. Don’t check the dipstick of a gifted car.

They have the same meaning that you’re trying see if the horse is healthy and the car’s engine is in good condition.

And they still haven’t decided what the definitions of a catch, pass interference, taunting, unsportsmanlike conduct, roughing the passer, and holding are.

Is this Waldo on US 301?

3 sounds like it was someone in the UK who wrote the text it was saying.

Cheap bastards can’t even do the shit we were taught in college: always validate inputs server-side too!

“Well you’re not rebuilding here. If we don’t take it and knock it down, the ocean will. At least you’re getting your stuff out and not drowning in a collapsed building.”

You don’t even need to starve them. A pig farmer had a medical emergency while tending to his pigs and they ate him.

Even takeaway mac and cheese will put the box stuff to shame. The fact that it can’t be called “Kraft macaroni and cheese” because the “cheese” is a powder is a damning statement by itself.

Kraft getting charged for visiting a “massage parlor” in Florida a while back didn’t do him any favors either.

Lead was also in car exhaust because of leaded gas so they were screwed either way.

Did you not know about the magical incantations that would silence them? The AT codes for the modem were a lifesaver if you were trying to get on the internet without anyone knowing.

For crypto mining, the speed of computation before the next block was mined was the constraint so GPUs were being used for parallel computation before ASIC miners were built. This is a great example of where ASICs shine: deterministic simple algorithms that don’t require much if any I/O.

LLMs have a minimum RAM requirement in order to even load the model so even if you built a dedicated LLM card with an ASIC, you would still need at least that amount of RAM on the card. You’d probably want more RAM in order to store context because that takes RAM as well. At that point you pretty much have a GPU with an ASIC instead of more general compute units and no video outputs.

You might get some improvements by using an ASIC for LLMs but not nearly as much as when ASICs started being used for mining.

They’re actually not because they have randomness built in. Since we are working with probabilities, it won’t always pick the next token that has the highest probability and the randomness can be tuned via a “temperature” setting to make it more or less likely that it will choose the most probable token.

The weights for the model could be stored in a firmware chip but you still need RAM because it pulls all the weights into RAM in order to perform the calculations.

I messed up and should have replied to the guy above you.
