@Duoae @SebAaltonen No I just don't care to speculate this stuff in public for a variety of reasons I don't want to detail :)

@Duoae @Snowmobile2004 @SebAaltonen Oh you meant that the leak does not make sense, not the spec. Sorry, didn't get that. I have no idea how reliable this leak is.

@Duoae @Snowmobile2004 @SebAaltonen You're not taking my suggestions, but that's ofc your prerogative. I wanted to offer that perspective because I think it's generally the right stance and leads to more insight / learning, but you do you!

@Duoae @SebAaltonen And because you are "a moderately informed technical person" I think that if U adopt that POV, you will easily find two or three likely ideas of what they might have been thinking that made X the right call. I know I can, but I am very confident that U'll be able to do that too.

@Duoae @SebAaltonen Because chances are that X is right, and I need to use my investigative powers to find the most plausible hypothesis of why X is right, not assume that X is wrong and explain why it's wrong. Not that Sony (or others) is infallible ofc - they might be wrong. But it's less LIKELY.

@Duoae @SebAaltonen (btw - with that POV the "why" should be rather obvious to forecast - but I'll leave that as an exercise for the readers)

@Duoae @SebAaltonen When things don't make sense to us, but they come from ppl with orders of magnitude more insight (in this case, both technical, few ppl can teach Sony how to do HW, and of ofc of their own strategy) - the DEFAULT stance should be "what can I learn", not "this is obviously dumb"

@pikuma @ID_AA_Carmack LOGO was never designed to teach programming, it's a language designed to teach logic. Which makes sense as it's basically LISP

@ID_AA_Carmack Scratch et al are well studied by now. Including what modifications, if any, are needed to facilitate the transition from purely visual languages to text-based. But I guess now with AI it's all out of the window.

My take on Quake 30th anniversary celebrations... Still "beta" quality... but already quite pretty c0de517e.com/EXTERNAL/beta/…

@yiningkarlli Practically all software is some sort of bytecode VM - you only have to look from the right vantage point :)

@AgileJebrim @xlrndo ...matter because we're not in the business of writing loops to add numbers etc - it's not about microbenchmarks and speed of light. But - if you want to play these games etc... Ofc it's all silly and I imagine the "interview question" is just aimed at having a conversation.

@AgileJebrim @xlrndo No. But the same is true if you use all SMs, and even more if all SMs then have a ton of waves and keep trying to randomly flip beween them to issue even more. There is a point where issuing more in parallel is good, and a point where it slows you down. In practice it doesn't

@AgileJebrim @xlrndo Also, achieving speed of light (i.e. the theoretical max speed - here should be effectively = the bandwidth posted for GDDR on a given GPU) is really hard to achieve - likely impossible on top of generic spir-v / vulkan etc stuff. U might get lucky but in general it's hard.
