ironbound··on Sergey Brin's Unretirement
Should of moved and signed up for physics classes on the East coast or Europe. No wonder they got pulled back into the valley bubble.

For people new to this maybe check out this video, it explains how the internals run pretty quickly https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=UKcWu1l_UNw

In theory if Anthropic puts research into the mechanics of the models internals, we can get better returns in training and alignment.

ironbound··on Run Deepseek from fast NVMe drives
Testing extreme NVME offload (4 x Gen5x4) for DeepSeek R1Because PCI-E 5x16 (~60GB/s) is close to dual channel DDR5 bandwidth, this is the cheapest method to run huge models. Code: https://github.com/BlinkDL/fast.c
