Inspired by, but no shared code as far as I can see on a brief scan.

It is not inspired by, it's friendly fork, so its more than inspiration. Code has diverged a bit, yes I do try to share. Karpathy's llama2.c upstream project has clearly stated goals of elegance and simplicity, so code that has lot of pre-processor directives like ours won't help upstream. Apart from this we are very thankful to jart & contributors from the cosmopolitan project and also the unikraft folks without which binary portability or unikernels wouldn't have been possible.

TL;DR Simple elegant stuff that we added will be shared to upstream. Complex non elegant code won't be shared as it won't be accepted upstream.

That's your relationship to upstream llama2.c, which is fairly clear. politelemon was asking about the relationship to ggerganov's llama.cpp, which seems to have inspired the upstream llama2.c.
