Ok. I’m not familiar with them. I was just relaying my impression from the start of the article.


Article is about research by IMEC (a chip packaging company) into dealing with the heat problems encountered with stacked dies such as HBM memories with a GPU.
You have to get a third of the way in before they really get to the topic.


Well I don’t think they’re growing. Depending on the sector all the AI data scanning is a concern for a number of companies. I’ve seen a lot of European discussions about getting away from US cloud services too.


If they lose all the money they have pumped into AI, then they will be relying on Windows and Office.
Good for them that both of those are currently doing fine.


It’s a big matrix multiplier that is tailored for machine learning model evaluation (not training). Often they are low precision as that’s all you need for model evaluation (or “inference”).
Think of it as a much less useful GPU because it won’t do graphics.


Is that down to anti-cheat software?


At that price you’re going intel.


Already going to happen because of RAM prices.


The encryption of streaming media is annoying, but it’s not what I fear. The ability to lock the software that I run on my hardware to “approved vendors” only is what worries me, and it’s what TPM promises. A security model where the only trusted party isn’t even the person owning the hardware.


Signal groups?.. Oh! That’s why people wanted usernames.
No. Signal is for people I know.


AI code sucks. An AI code review tool told us.
No advantage over Arch IMO.
If you want to play with it, setup a VM.


He doesn’t want to go to sites that are ad supported. He wants to support sites that don’t get their funding that way.


More fool you. There’s some damn good software in that list.


Have a read of the thoughts of somebody with closer ties than myself.
That’s about it, but its my daily driver on desktop and laptop.


There’s a lot of crossover here. It encompasses the “you rent everything and own nothing” aspect of today’s society. It’s multi-billion corporations against consumers.
A win here will be something that will expose chinks in the armour for a lot of other issues. I know it might seem unimportant because it’s games, but that’s its beauty. It’s a backdoor into so many other fights.


I’m not the only one seeing the 20 or so deals like this in the last few weeks. Right?
Is this because the SEC is shutdown?
Leave it at the office.
