This was really fun, especially the end where it says which judges you were closest and furthest from. Thanks for making!

I currently dualboot to play some non-Wine compatible Windows games with GPU. My host is Linux and I only have one GPU. Would this enable me to have a Windows guest with GPU support on demand? If yes, I'll beta test!

Hi! Yes, it absolutely will. The only caveat with single-gpu-passthrough is that when you are passing your gpu to the VM, you can only use the VM with your main display and peripherals. (The host is still accessible via SSH.) When you shut down your VM, the host returns automatically.

In the "i can only sort of use one OS at a time" sense, it is like dual booting, but the transition is much faster (since there is no reboot required) and, as mentioned, your host doesn't really go away (you can still SSH into it from another PC on your network.)


Not to mention they commented on their own post, pretending to ask a question..

> They start by saying they "wanted to see if it was possible"

That's a generous read. From the actual article:

> We wanted to see if we could eliminate that tax entirely. Spoiler: We could.


Sure it's a bad post. But the guy did not make a nazi salute at a meeting...

TPM isn't manager. It's basically a PM, but they're (supposed) to be technical

My guess, a program manager high up in the engineering org and not a people manager. But suggesting a high up program manager doesn't direct people is also wrong. TPMs "make the wheels go 'round" in engineering. They very much control the fate of other individual, and often whole teams so their integrity and capability both matter considerably which means they should not be passing themselves off as a coder or their individual code projects as production ready.

Does TPM not mean Technical Program Manager or Technical Product Manager?

Product Managers are generally not "Senior Engineering," though I suppose it is possible. IMO, it's a whole lot more likely a program manager than a product manager.

Probably, but that isn't a management role, they're not a manager, even if the job title includes the word manager.

Meta's Reality Labs includes AI spend, so that's not 70B on VR

That’s a fair point. Reality Labs covers AR (Orion), neural interfaces, and the Ray-Ban partnership too.

But the 'Metaverse' was the governing thesis that justified that entire strategy and burn rate. Even if the breakdown is 50/50, we still have tens of billions spent on a VR software ecosystem (Horizon) that's nearly empty.

The specific dollar amount matters less than the ratio of 'capital invested' to 'consumer value created'. And there's a big gap between those.


You can tell it was written by AI, not just by the wording, but by how generic it is


In addition to Nvidia Linux issues mostly being centered around the desktop, proprietary modules for AI work is done well by Nvidia

It seems like the law is more downscoped than the title implies:

> The rules apply only to businesses, not individual users.

I can't think of a business that would be incentivized to dewatermark videos - they just wouldn't watermark them in the first place


Korea is in an interesting situation to do this; if the USA did it, people outside the US would make English AI generated videos. But who outside of Korea is going to make Korean AI generated videos?
