fadedsignal··on MiMo Code Is Now Released and Open-Source
I also thought the same lol. It also happened with lora
fadedsignal··on Gemini 3 Deep Think
Dr., please tell me are we cooked? :crying-emoji
fadedsignal··on Nvidia takes $1B stake in Nokia
You are right on your points. I agree on DPU but it's on the network stack. I think Nvidia wants to get into the PHY and MAC layer (CuPHY, etc.). That's where I find it unlikely due to the cost of latency. If Nvidia had wanted to buy Nokia, they could've already completed the deal. It's a possibility in the future but this $1B investment kind of showed that they are more interested in creating artificial demand for their GPUs rather than diversifying their product portfolio. I agree with you that Nvidia should just buy Nokia.
fadedsignal··on Ventoy: Create bootable USB drive for ISO/WIM/IMG/VHD(x)/EFI Files
I learned about the tool very late. I wish I had known the existence of this tool earlier. I carry a USB stick with Ventoy, which includes 2-3 ISOs. It's a lifesaver.
fadedsignal··on Nvidia takes $1B stake in Nokia
I think this will continue. They can't change 3GPP's vision with just Nokia. They need to bribe other companies. Ericsson is the other big vendor. I think there is a possibility of that. However, Huawei is impossible. Who is gonna provide a GPU to them? Therefore, they simply can't just put a GPU on every base station around the world.
fadedsignal··on The next chapter of the Microsoft–OpenAI partnership
I don't think AGI will happen with LLMs. For example, can an LLM drive a car?? I know it's a silly question but it's a fact.
fadedsignal··on The next chapter of the Microsoft–OpenAI partnership
I 100% agree with this. I suggest the other guy to check history of NLP.
fadedsignal··on Torchcomms: A modern PyTorch communications API
Ok, chatgpt
fadedsignal··on Torchcomms: A modern PyTorch communications API
Dude, wth with this hate. I commented on what I thought about the title. I didn't say anything about the work. How do you get so insulted?? You basically proved that you are wrong by yourself. Torchvision is a package for computer vision. Torch audio is a package for audio processing. Based on this history, you expect Torchcomms to be a communication (wireless) package. Torchbalancer could be a better name but what do I know, right? This is only an opinion. If it's going to make you happy for the day, feel free to downvote. I wasn't living under a rock, but you just weren’t paying attention to what was right in front of you.

Another example, https://pypi.org/project/scikit-commpy/

fadedsignal··on Torchcomms: A modern PyTorch communications API
Well, the title for the tool is confusing. The first thing that came to my mind was a wireless communication-related toolset.
fadedsignal··on OpenAI acquires Sky.app
I don't think it's a meaningful acquisition. I am wondering how much cash OpenAI is holding. They literally bought dozens of startups/companies while they were/are still not profitable.
fadedsignal··on PyTorch Monarch
It is a nice project. I have questions.

- Is this similar to openMPI?

- How is a mesh established? Do they need to be on the same host?

fadedsignal··on I maintain a 17 year old ThinkPad
That sucks. I remember buying my XPS when the new version released and tried to install Linux (Fedora). Nvidia driver issues, CPU E/P core issues, and many more. It literally took 2 years to get stable. Recently, Nvidia released a new version of the driver. Guess what happened? PC doesn't wake up from sleep anymore. I'm not even mentioning the so-called 8-hour battery life.
fadedsignal··on MAME 0.276
I've never heard of MAME before, but I wish I had learned this earlier. It's a cool project.
fadedsignal··on Despite Ukraine War, Europe Imported Even More Russian Gas Last Year
It's not a surprise. There are certain players in the gas market. Don't forget that governments work for corporations, not for people. Corporations want the cheapest of the cheapest for their profits, and politicians want more cuts. Whoever offers the cheapest good (gas in this case) will eventually get sold. Even though they tell people that the EU is putting sanctions on Russia, their puppet (Greece) carries Russian gas to the EU. This is how the world works.
fadedsignal··on ESP32 WiFi Superstitions
Search for Wifi roaming. To support Wifi roaming you need a wifi mesh though.
fadedsignal··on Apple unveils new Mac Studio
Why do they always compare their new-gen CPUs with M1??
fadedsignal··on Biohacking Lite (2020)
What was your daily diet? Can you provide some details?
fadedsignal··on My Unhealthy Relationship with Keyboards
Nuphy Air75v2 is the best. Looking forward to receive mine in few days!
fadedsignal··on ASUS to manufacture and sell Intel’s NUC products
Hold on a sec. I said enclosure such as https://www.amazon.com/USB4-Enclosure-40Gbps-Compatible-Thun... Then you can put whatever nvme ssd you want. It'll most likely cost around $500 at most.
fadedsignal··on BlazingMQ: High-performance open source message queuing system
A yet another MQ :-) I quickly checked the performance page and it looks much better than its competitors. Documentation is better as well.
fadedsignal··on ASUS to manufacture and sell Intel’s NUC products
Not if you use Thunderbolt 4 SSD (enclosure)
fadedsignal··on Can Dell’s 6K monitor beat their 8K monitor?
> Dell’s 32-inch 6K monitor (U3224KBA), a productivity monitor that offer..

I stopped reading after this lol

fadedsignal··on Moving fast with the core Vim motions
Additionally, it still uses less resources. VS Code consumes at least 1 GB of memory for just a simple project. I am not even mentioning other IDEs
fadedsignal··on NXP LA9310: A new platform for SDR and the 10-year-old AD9361 RF Transceiver
> My understanding is that SRS and the like all require beefy desktop-class processors to run in?

Yes. You can ignore this question. I should have asked you the driver first. I think you replied that question already on another comment. Thx for your explanation. Looking forward to seeing it in the market soon.

fadedsignal··on NXP LA9310: A new platform for SDR and the 10-year-old AD9361 RF Transceiver
It is really cool. I have some questions.

> There are two embedded antennas to ensure that we can always correct any internal frequency drift by syncing to the cell network.

What do you mean? Do you have your own DSP stack to deal with that while user receiving/transmitting? If there is, do you provide any control over it?

Aside from that,

- What is the compatibility with open source LTE, 5G solutions(SRS, OAI, etc.)?

- I couldn't see PPS input. Are you planning to add it with daughterboards?
