Playing around with Godot - open source game engine - this morning. Just checking what sort of look I can get out of it. Mostly procedural assets...
I get it now… So because of all this traumatic experience - people killed, gods defiled, city burned - Odyssey ended up in the Backrooms
Tonight's cocktail: kissel, or rather sbiten with lemon juice, cola syrup, honey and a splash of bourbon.
Slow-Motion Sour.
Thought I am hallucinating that my computer freezes a bit when sun goes down 🧛
☞ Bug in Broadcom firmware caused freezing when jumping bands over load + at dusk waves from weather radar bounce more from the sky, card perceive as congestion and searches for better band. Fixed 😊
Not to shill for Claude Code (actually trying Antigravity now ;) but I love this ASCII art and on my terminal color scheme, this night with crescent Moon looks especially neat ^_^ Like, late late evening but not yet midnight, remains of cobalt color.
Now I'm a man of culture too! I tried kuwai! I mean クワイ. I mean 慈姑. Tastes like a chestnut who became a root vegetable. Deep-fried. A bit bitter, but maybe that's from frying. Gives you that "find it in the forest and eat" feel, though this one was from the shop :)

📢 #NLProc I'm hiring! 2x PhD students (apply by Nov 22) & postdoc (Nov 15). These positions are part of a large project on the problem of attribution for LLM outputs to the original data sources, on which LLMs were trained.

Workshop on Large Language Models and HPC will be in Kobe Sept 24 at @IEEECluster, still more than a month to submit a paper! Organized by @kevin_a_brown , Tanwi Mallick, Juliane Mueller and yours truly. Details at llmhpc.github.io/2024, 🔁 appreciated!
me: I’m pretty good with CSS. also me: and I don’t want to use JS on the server, so I’ll use a static site generator in Go...
Static site generator in Go: running a JS-based JIT-compiler for a CSS framework used by a theme I choose... JIT-compiling CSS... damn hipsters...
As I'm trying to teach my daughter a bit of programming, had to brush the dust off the pycontextfree library... Here's the code for this one: github.com/undertherain/pyco…

#hpcmyths 6: We Will Soon Run at Zettascale!
Read our discussion in @ProfMatsuoka et al. arxiv.org/abs/2301.02432 and discuss here at the #HPC twitter!
Will we reach zettaflop/s performance or will fp64
lose relevance before?
38%zettaflop in fp64 it is
39%fp64 will not be relevant
23%fp64 is irrelevant now
69 votes • Final resultsYou can do animation in PDF slides with latex ONLY with multimedia package, ONLY with LuaLaTeX ONLY in okular (on linux).
JS based animation out for "security" reasons, XeLaTeX etc can't build multimedia, evince etc needs mouse click but in presentation mode it means next page 🤦

The 'Myths' paper is out: Satoshi Matsuoka, Jens Domke, Mohamed Wahib, Aleksandr Drozd, Torsten Hoefler. "Myths and Legends in High-Performance Computing" arxiv.org/abs/2301.02432" undergoing peer review. Hopefully the community will be engaged in yes/no discussions on Twitter!
I think I have some sort of sleepwalking issue... I suspect I wake up at night, unconscious go to my PC and delete those email to which it was too bothersome to reply...

📢 #NLPaperAlert: Outliers Dimensions that Disrupt Transformers Are Driven by Frequency
with @gpuccetti92 @bkbrd Felice Dell'Orletta
TLDR: remember how BERT over-relies on just 48 magic params? They're related to token frequency in training! /1

well, the #stablediffusion thing is indeed fun to play with. But feels rather then prompt engineering, might be better to shortcut directly to tuning the input vector.
Doing #Anki for 14 years now 💪🏼. First was burn, then burnout, then finally steady pace. This is Japanese deck, but that's the only one I do regularly.
