Humanity has prevailed (for now!) I'm completely exhausted. I figured, I had 10h of sleep in the last 3 days and I'm barely alive. I'll post more about the contest when I get some rest. (To be clear, those are provisional results, but my lead should be big enough)

All the people whining that @colossal didn't create dire wolves because they actually just spliced 10,000 year old dire wolf DNA with gray wolves should spend their time arguing that Jurassic Park did not, in fact, depict any dinosaurs.

Once you reach 40 your soul is extracted and placed into the next generation of Nvidia chips.

At risk of starting the obvious, there are many attention-seeking trolls on all social media platforms trying to yank your chain. They win if you respond.

The tinygrad codebase is 248k tokens. Do any open source LLMs support a context this big? Soon, tinygrad will be recursively self improving.

a true accelerationist feels their heart beat faster when they stare into the fog of war. the stomach lurch from the vertigo of science fiction. the courage of someone changing their whole life knowing it could go sideways. anyone else is a larping idiot

I personally wrote the first national maps, directions, yellow pages & white pages on the Internet in the summer of 1995 in C with a little C++. Didn’t use a “web server” to save CPU cycles (just read port 8080 directly). Couldn’t afford a Cisco T1 router, so wrote an emulator based on a white paper.

Jensen Huang told me in 2016 that when Nvidiers first noticed AI researchers were using GPUs they were flabbergasted. The speed and force with which they then pivoted to AI is a case study for the ages.
