Hi,

Come on Horsy Boy, you can do better. I
no where wrote something about curve
fitting and/or increasing the precision of

float point numbers:

11.4 Giga Lips with a Budget Laptop
https://github.com/Jean-Luc-Picard-2021/gigabudget

What makes you think LIPS measures precision?
You should know better as a 50% Prologer.

I explictily wrote here what the goal is:

"shave off some of the TOPS to do Prolog inferencing"

What are TOPS? Its a metric for GPUs:

TOPS stands for “Trillions of Operations Per Second.”
https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/glossary/tops-in-computing/

See for yourself what is behind my post:

11.4 Giga Lips with a Budget Laptop
At the end of 2025 we acquired a couple of AI Laptops , that were still 
cheap, since RAM prices had not yet rocketed. The intend was to tap into 
the Copilot+ certified hardware, and shave off some of the TOPS to do 
Prolog inferencing. Amazingly our π-WAM can churn 11.4 GIGA LIPS.

GPUs have evolved form lock-step to independent thread scheduling. This 
made it possible to port the Hack VM variant, that forms the basis for 
our π-WAM, to WebGPU computer shaders. Using NUM_SHADERS = 4096 we could 
produce 11.4 Giga Lips on a Ryzen AI 7 350 w/ Radeon 860M.

So just get lost with your crazy irrelevant rant.
When I get more LIPS, things run faster, and
I remove digits from the time dimension.

Got it. Or are you too stupid?

Bye

#15767 — In Budget Laptops the TOPS come with low energy footprint (Re: π-WAM is not adding decimals, it is removing decimals)

SubjectIn Budget Laptops the TOPS come with low energy footprint (Re: π-WAM is not adding decimals, it is removing decimals)

In reply to#15766
Hi,

Because of the mobile GPU design, the TOPS,
aka “Trillions of Operations Per Second.”
come with not extremly high power consumption.

Especially the presence of vector and matrix
operations can lower the energy consumption,
since they can avoid redundant memory access.

Its quite a difference between discrete graphic
cards and accelerator iGPUs that are directly
on the silicon chip, and have mobile design.

So basically with newer AI Laptops you get more
performence units for less energy units.

Have Fun!

country, and also I start understanding morons

The same holds for SWI Prologs newest campaign

Woa! Real time download of Scala, Closure,

Hi,

Rossy Boy is neither Einstein nor Zweistein.
He is not Einstein since Einstein is already dead:

Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955)
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_Einstein

He is also not Zweistein, since he doesn't
understand concepts such as:

- NVIDIA Volta ff. architecture

Also his hands are small, and his breath stinks,
and he lives in the basement of his mother.

Hi,

Hurry Rossy Boy, the blue bus is waiting.
There is a quite a hyperbole from here:

Tesla S1070 in 2008
700 Watts , 1 Terra Flop
SOLVE TOMORROW’S PROBLEMS TODAY
https://www.azken.com/download/Tesla_DS_S1070_EU.pdf

To here:

Blackwell GPU in 2026
575 Watts, 104.8 Terra Flops ( RTX 5090 )
 From Volta To Blackwell
https://newsletter.semianalysis.com/p/nvidia-tensor-core-evolution-from-volta-to-blackwell

But somehow the S1070 had already Massively-
Parallel, Many-Core Architecture, and forms
of MIMD, since it had 960 / 240 = 4 cores.

960 scalar processor cores (240 per GPU).
But possibly more resticted inside work
groups, than later NVIDIA Volta ff

architecture with independent thread state.

Bye

Disclaimer: The above is only a very rough
RTX 5090 spec. Its doesn't say what value
format and what vector/matrics ops were

used. Also energy consumption may vary.

Hi,

So what does NUM_SHADERS = 4096 shaders mean here?

11.4 Giga Lips with a Budget Laptop
https://github.com/Jean-Luc-Picard-2021/gigabudget

Its only the number of logical threads.

CUDA™ TEChNOLOGY UNLOCkS ThE POWER OF TESLA MANY-CORE PROCESSORS
The CUDA C compiler simplifies  many-core programming
by enabling code development in a high-level language
and optimizing code to run on systems without knowledge of
how many cores are in the hardware.

CUDA applications automatically take advantage of more
cores or fewer cores in a system, so they can scale from
entry-level notebook GPUs to high end GPUs in technical
workstations  and further into racks of GPUs in data
centers. This allows developers to

“code once” and deploy on a range of systems, as well as
scale forward in time as future GPUs deliver more
performance per watt and more cores per processor. The benefit
for software users is the opportunity to boost computing
performance simply by adding GPUs or using their

existing GPUs in new ways.

Hi,

Because of this parallelism you anyway
need to forget about any arithmetization
of product FSA (finite-state automata).

Just forget it. What modern GPU provide
is a kind of hirarchical viewpoint. You
can have barriers in groups etc..

So you can exercise control over your
mongolian horde of logical threads in
a kind of multilevel schema.

Have Fun!

Hi,

Rossy Boys tears could cool a data center,
he thinks there exists no literature about
serial algorithms of parallel stuff, and

he also thinks normal forms lead to optimizing
something. LoL, what a utter bullshit. I did
alreay a serial implementation of a parallel

simulation of my pi-WAM. Just lookup the literature
about pi-calulus. I published it a few days ago,
its part of 2.2.4 released already:

Parallel π-WAM: An Interleaved Synchronous Emulator
https://medium.com/2989/0196089e143a

Whats your point, Rossy Boy? Except you post pretend
nonsense not knowing what you are doing?

Hi,

I don't use Rust, you are crazy. First of
all the parallel simulator is 100% written
in Prolog, should also run in ISO Prolog,

enhanced by a library(lists). Second I only
mentioned that WebGPU / WGSL, the language
there has a Rust inspired language.

Its not Rust. Whats wrong with you? Why do
you adress your weariness of life to me.
I am neither thief, nor can I help you

with your frustration, and histeric outbursts.
Maybe just be a man and jump off a bridge, idiot.
Or tame your frustration, usenet is not for

you alone, your stupid asshole.

Hi,

The conspiracy theory of a stealing of Torso VDBE,
by Rossy Boy, is probably a result of complete
ignorance of the Hack ecosystem.

Hack is a very popular computer science project,
with a couple of subprojects in hardware and
software. It goes also by the name Nand to Tetris,

and is programming language agnositic. You can do
Hack experiments in any programming language, be
it BASIC, ADA or Rust. Nobody cares.

The gist are projects like here, first to
educate yourself about Hack:

https://www.nand2tetris.org/course

And then to use Hack in different contexts:

https://www.nand2tetris.org/copy-of-talks

For didactic purposes, I used Hack for my WebGPU
experiment. I didn't even take a look at Torso
VDBE, why should I? Hack is nicely documented,

has even a book, and fusing the two 16-bit
instruction types A and D, into a single 32-bit
instruction stream, is nowhere patented.

Bye

Hi,

This seems to be a funny Q16.16 experiment.
It shows that an integerish Hack can do
floatish stuff, by using binary fixpoint:

Raytracing on the Hack computer
2021/06/13 - im alex
https://blog.alexqua.ch/posts/from-nand-to-raytracer/

That it uses Rust is arbitrary. Feel free
to do it in C, C++, FORTRAN or Java. I guess
these languages all have basic arithmethic,

right? Maybe not a long jump always?

Hi,

Ok, guys lets face it. You are a bunch of
morons. When did I do this post:

11.4 Giga Lips with a Budget Laptop
https://github.com/Jean-Luc-Picard-2021/gigabudget

Yes on Jul 9, 2026, now we have Jul 27, 2026.
Thats a wooping 18 days meanwhile.
And you still don't get the meaning and

implications of the post. Like you even
don't get what "budget" nowdays means in
terms of performance units and energy units?

And what LIPS means, drawn from TOPS,
in terms of applications? Shame on you guys!
You are a bunch of brainless idiots.

Hi,

Why does this Lama have a red pyjama.
Oh, its a baby Lama. Its still in the cradle
and needs some training:

RedPajama-Data-v2
https://github.com/togethercomputer/RedPajama-Data

But then Andrej Karpathy recently showed
GPT-2 training on rented GPUs for less
than 100 USD in less then 2 hours.

So where do these grown up Lamas go.
Well Georgi Gerganov prefered C++/C
when he shouted Llama Llama Red Pyjama.

But you also find WebLLM, wrapping the
underlying C++/C GPU interface via the
W3C standard WebGPU / WGSL, with JavaScript:

In-Browser LLM Inference Engine
https://webllm.mlc.ai/

My experience with WebLLM 6 months
ago on an iPad Pro 2024, still a little early
stage performance and robustness.

But hey hardware of AI mobile iGPUs is

Hi,

Usual question:

 > Why implement both pre-emptive threading
AND cooperative tasks/engines?

I had implemented the ISO proposal in formerly Jekejeke
Prolog, you find the ISO proposal here:

ISO/IEC DTR 13211–5:2007
Prolog multi-threading support
https://logtalk.org/plstd/threads.pdf

But the ISO proposal doesn't match modern WebGPU APIs,
where your logical threads can live remotely in a dedicated GPU
in the VRAM there, and where you would have launch

parameters that say: Hey please run 4096 compute
shaders for me, that have independet thread state. Using
cooperative multi-tasking as the orchestrator works well.

Bye

#15784 — Actor/Erlang is dead, no Thread and Mailbox conflation [golang channels] (Re: AI Accelerators and ISO Prolog multi-threading) (Re: Lamas in a cradle and Lamas on the edge [Red Pyjama])

Hi,

Mostlikely for high performance computing à la,
the Actor/Erlang model is dead, they might rely
on MPMC (Multiple Producer, Multiple Consumer)

queue entities separate from the threads. The
ISO Prolog multi-threading support had also such
threads. But besides that was also Actor/Erlang

leaning in practice, like SWI, where threads
have some default queues. So an actor is basically
a Thread and Mailbox conflation. While a MPMC queue

is a kind of separate Mailbox, where multiple
"actors" can read from and write from. A kind of
localized Linda Tuple store.

Which Programming language did adopted the
non-Actor pi-calculus model? Right golang
with its channels.

Bye
