Well, I’d guess I’d go out the way I’d always knew I would; mauled while getting blown by a bear 🤤

Good, fuck Leon

Very good point about the DMs. Surprised this issue isn’t being raised more often

Eh, they just pass all the pain on to consumers

Sounds like a pretty solid release from AMD. Too bad GPU prices are still so crazy high 🫤

I think we’ll see m1+ levels of desktop performance on RISCV within the next 4 years though. trump will do wonders for the Chinese semiconductor industry

I hope so, that would e awesome!

On their servers? possibly. RISC-V is competitive when you stuff a bunch of cores into it and make it do basic server tasks that haven’t gotten more complex over the years. And in AI, you may just need a cheap CPU to orchestrate your GPUs/NPUs so anything will work there.

I think this is the approach Tenstorrent is taking with their AI accelerators, but I’m not entirely clear on how much of the processing is done in RISC-V and how much is custom silicon. But, as a reletively inexpensive PCIe card, it seems pretty interesting

Wow, really is the car of the future! 😲

Fact of the matter is way more people know who Steve Jobs is compared to Dennis Ritchie, so it’s no wonder his death garnered way more attention too. But the sentiment still stands IMO
