By the way, number 48 on the list, The Elements of Computing Systems, is the book of nand2tetris. https://www.nand2tetris.org/book

I think you'll see it if you're logged in and have showdead turned on.

That's similar one of Google's goals, and they do it (mostly) legally.

I agree with the email point. Who wants people to send them more emails?

It looks like the rtx-6000 costs around USD $10k. Quite the step up from the 4090.

The Falcon appears at t=5033: https://youtu.be/l3pe_qx95E0?t=5033

From the setup.sh, the VRAM requirements are:

    echo "[1] codegen-350M-mono (2GB total VRAM required; Python-only)"
    echo "[2] codegen-350M-multi (2GB total VRAM required; multi-language)"
    echo "[3] codegen-2B-mono (7GB total VRAM required; Python-only)"
    echo "[4] codegen-2B-multi (7GB total VRAM required; multi-language)"
    echo "[5] codegen-6B-mono (13GB total VRAM required; Python-only)"
    echo "[6] codegen-6B-multi (13GB total VRAM required; multi-language)"
    echo "[7] codegen-16B-mono (32GB total VRAM required; Python-only)"
    echo "[8] codegen-16B-multi (32GB total VRAM required; multi-language)"

So I could try the 350M models on a laptop with an NVidia card of 2GB.

Another factoid, I noticed vultr is offering fauxpilot images in their GPU instance provisioning menu.

The model used (Salesforce Codegen) is on huggingface: https://huggingface.co/models?search=salesforce+codegen

Yes, I was expecting a RAM-doubled edition of the H100, this is just a higher-binned version of the same part.

I got an email from vultr, saying that they're "officially taking reservations for the NVIDIA HGX H100", so I guess all public clouds are going to get those soon.

> In the lobbying that led to its creation, it was instituted only on net buybacks. Companies that give their executives generous share-based compensation such as Facebook parent Meta Platforms get a tax deduction on that form of pay and then dodge much or even all of the buyback tax if it is used to soak up that share issuance.

What's a net buyback? The article could give some clarity of what that is for us new to the term.

Plus an exclusivity agreement to ensure no sharing is happening.
