The Triton fork for Windows support, based on the v3.1.x-windows branch, aims to make free software compatible with non-free platforms, in line with Richard Stallman’s philosophy. Torchao, a key aspect of the project, transforms large models to become usable on consumer GPUs. Interestingly, it performs as well as on WSL, making it a valuable addition […]
Cell-based architectures are a resilient system approach that reduces failure impact by using fixed-size cells as deployment units, favoring scale-out over scale-up. They improve security by isolating components, offering a clearer system view. Many companies revisit cell-based architecture to address outages. Major players like Slack, Doordash, and Roblox have made the switch for efficiency and […]
Kalmangrad is a python package that calculates smooth derivatives of non-uniformly sampled time series data using Bayesian filtering techniques to mitigate noise. Traditional numerical differentiation methods amplify noise, leading to inaccurate results. This package offers the ability to compute derivatives of any order, providing smoother and more accurate estimates in the presence of noise and […]
The World of CSGO Server Operation: Founded an Australian & New Zealand-based CSGO community server called Invex Gaming in 2014, active until 2019. Rapidly rose in popularity with unique content, competitions, and custom game plugins. Maintaining infrastructure, managing costs, and preventing cheaters were key tasks. Detecting cheaters involved a cat-and-mouse game between developers. Developed a […]
Credit: Toth V. T. & Turyshev, S.G. predict that a solar gravitational lens can be used to observe distant galaxies and even nearby exoplanets. The proposed telescope would be the size of the sun, providing a resolution of 10 square kilometers for objects 100 light-years away. Despite diffraction limitations, the telescope could detect a 1 […]
This web content discusses the importance of hardening C, C++, and Objective C toolchains to deliver reliable and secure code. It addresses the configuration, preprocessor, compiler, and linker aspects commonly overlooked in project setups. Debug builds help catch mistakes during development, while release builds are optimized for production. Test builds ensure interfaces are thoroughly tested. […]
Birds, the only permanent bipeds in the animal kingdom, maintain their balance using a mysterious mechanism called tensegrity, a combination of tension and compression. Researchers at the National Museum of Natural History and the CNRS discovered that birds can sleep while standing, due to their structure similar to human legs. By studying the feet of […]
Qualcomm’s NPU on the Microsoft Surface Tablet is tested in this benchmark, aiming to showcase its performance as an AI PC. Lack of code examples and benchmarks for external developers prompted the creation of this project. However, the results fall below expectations, highlighting the need for improvements in latency. The installation process involves Python, Cmake, […]
