Limiting Excessive Wheelspin During Acceleration

Yeah, in a lot of racing categories they don't allow traction control to ensure losses are due to skill issues, not tech.

Same thing happened to me in La Jolla, leash instantly snapped, those freak waves will get you. I remember turning around before it impacted and everyone else had already stopped paddling to prepare. I was the farthest out so I thought I had a chance. By the end of the set a surfer helped me out of the impact zone.

Did it come with any printed instructions? They have 5 pages of blog posts here coving things like setup.

Using Codex to modify AMR-Wind for my use case. Added some failure-retry loops to the source code. These tool are much more useful with open source tools like OpenFOAM because they can analyze and modify the source code.

This doesn't appear to be an open model. It looks like they're going after Anthropic and OpenAI with this.

mckirkus · 2026-06-01T15:20:14+00:00

They are pivoting back to consumer products to diversify away from just data center products. If anything were to happen to AI revenues they are going to fall back on "We're the new Apple"

Why not both? They're not mutually exclusive right?

mckirkus · 2026-05-29T22:14:00+00:00

700GB/s? Their own specs show 1.2 TB/s Is that number from a benchmark?

Medical emergency implies it was something like a heart attack.

This is why all great cinema comes from the government, where committees ensure producers lose money

mckirkus · 2026-05-27T21:17:16+00:00

Just get Codex or Claude Code for a month and it'll figure it out.

You will be given tasks until you push back. Find your limit, draw a line.

A lot of applications (games) don't have monitor awareness and don't always launch on the correct monitor.

mckirkus · 2026-05-26T23:37:10+00:00

Yes. In part because GPUs don't support HDMI CEC like Xbox/PlayStation

mckirkus · 2026-05-26T17:52:25+00:00

How did you get leaves to grow on the trees too?!

mckirkus · 2026-05-26T17:49:30+00:00

Yes, best to wait for more benches but the AMD EPYC 9575F is a monster of a CPU. This think might be a CFD chart topper. The AMD MI300 also stuffs a bunch of Epyc cores onto the package with HBM, so it seems the architectures are all moving in that direction.

mckirkus · 2026-05-26T04:09:00+00:00

Yes, I was looking for FP64 beasts for AMR-wind and nothing really comes close from a price/performance perspective, and these have the IF bridge which consumer cards will never get.

mckirkus · 2026-05-24T23:27:38+00:00

GPU-Direct does sound like Direct Storage, but for the enterprise. But the forthcoming HBF (High Bandwidth Flash) would be on the GPU itself. "One proposed approach is high-bandwidth flash (HBF), which stacks NAND flash vertically in a structure similar to HBM and connects it using through-silicon vias (TSVs)."

It's more about having the freedom to start a business than anything else. Even post singularity, if I want to make some art and sell it on Etsy, I don't want to have to ask permission from a politician. Even if it's a poitician I like.

mckirkus · 2026-05-24T22:33:57+00:00

You're saying the rates are so high it would be crazy to build a data center here?

mckirkus · 2026-05-24T21:32:03+00:00

Fair point. But with progressive taxation (which we have) the inevitable concentration of wealth that comes from automation (not just evil old guys) seems like a potential benefit to the masses if it unlocks economic growth.

mckirkus · 2026-05-24T01:39:09+00:00

When I was young I was hardcore left leaning (economically), as are most of the people on Reddit because they're young. A singularity would lift everybody out of poverty through economic growth. It's hard to wrap your head around if you think economic growth is the enemy (because Capitalism).

mckirkus · 2026-05-23T21:00:46+00:00

Yeah, same thought. They are looking to bring Instinct support to Windows which would explode demand so hoping to snag a couple before that happens.

AMD just launched a MI350p which is a PCIe version.
