Bramble is 2 months old and tipping the scales at 3.5 pounds! This little prehensile-tailed porcupette is getting more comfortable with solid foods, and corn kernels are quickly becoming a favorite. She has a full menu of solid foods available whenever she's ready for a snack.

No, you just had to unclog a dishwasher because your 14-year-old son put a bowl with popcorn kernels in it and they stopped up the drain

having a lot of problems that avx512 would've fixed may rent a server just to implement kernels for it

the value proposition shifts from liability to durability. there are a thousand os kernels out there, several of which are free, but we use Linux because we know it works, even though there's no one to sue
so here's why i think oss is kind of dead: code without liability is an increasingly valueless proposition

Rust + CUDA are coming to @hf.co kernel-builder. We just landed support for cuda-oxide and cutile-rs is up next!
Some example Rust kernels, including a flash-attn2 port to Rust and cuda-oxide:

revenue center. the kernels rub together and make a superfine cornstarch that will take the rings off of anyone in there. almost found out the hard way

one really cool thing about slang is that you can automatically generate functions for calculating the derivatives of your kernels (autodiff). ive never personally used a language that actually supports this capability, despite how common it is in the scientific computing world. it's neat!
back on my bullshit: porting my ancient CUDA noise code to Slang. these two heightfields are based on this article I read (oh god) over a decade ago now www.decarpentier.nl/scape-proced...

I used to call these plot kernels, like kernels of corn, sitting around until the right stressor is applied, then they *pop*!

Mfw my old arch install /boot was 16gb and regularly ran out of space because it never cleaned old kernels out lol

Microwave popcorn gives you its nutrition facts as if they don't expect a human being to ever eat it.
Like, oh, perfect. I wasn't even planning on eating this whole bag. How did you know I was just going to have 2 tablespoons of unpopped kernels?

so the error code in the picture is apparently harmless and only (maybe) indicates that you have a lot of kernels installed. instead my graphics driver for whatever reason locked my package manager from configuring installs correctly so my system tried to boot incomplete kernels.
