Groq kept delivering so their valuation has effectively gone up.

A year ago it wasn't clear if they'd stay competitive but it seems they are.

>> if groq and cerebras combined

There isn't to be shared between the two techs, Groq's hardware is a like a railgun that installs all the weights into the optimal location before firing off an inference. Cerebras computer engineering more convention requiring the same data movement that GPUs struggle with optimizing.

Suspect Groq is complementary/superior to nvidia's GPUs, while it is unclear what Cerebras brings other then maybe some deals with TSMC.

The author's laundry list of fixes are already formally done, most of things the author wants to treat as fraud are already treated as fraud.

Yeah we generally don’t give those permissions to agent based coding tools.

Typically running something like git would be an opt in permission.

While Apple products may be popular with tech bros and aspiring creative like Martin Luther King, John Lennon or Mahatma Gandhi they only represent a small fraction of computing outside California.

>>50-70MB/spindle

Thats pretty terrible. I can get Windows remots file copies over >300 MB/s with a $150 and 6 WD Red 4tb and 10 G.

No its in there. For example, a similar OSS software called MicroManager is a veritable cluster duck with half the code base dedicated to interfacing between C++ and Java. It doesn't hit the performance spec. The real problem I've had with C++ is finding devs, typically senior C++ software engineer at $130k vs junior Python dev at $70k.

But from the engineering side it's the only "everything" language. (There aren't any good GUI kits for C, and NVCC is C++)

Unfortunately some projects have an "everything" requirement. That is to say the software must be fast, and written in a way that interface close to the metal. We need to do a lot of parallel processing. Now it's C++ or Rust. Then we need a GUI, and CUDA so we're down to C++. That's why project uses C++.

No. Actually most useful OSS is supported by goverment funding or big companies.

Can't you just charge them $2.99 for each contract, and go with volume?
