Hi,

Chris M. Thomasson can ask 100 more questions.
I will happily answer them. But maybe I should
make a Wiki to explain the ever same things:

 > But, I still don't know what you main goal is?
The goal is "Prolog inferencing"

 > It has textures to work with in the pipeline.
I don't need textures for "Prolog inferencing"

 > You seem to need queues, why not "imageAtomicAdd"
I don't need ideally unbouded queues from WebGL

 > But the "imageAtomicAdd" are wait-free
I don't need wait-free queues, my queues should block

Hard to swallow, isn't it? Not my problem, its yours!

97 more questions to go, don't give up!

Hi,

Why is nobody mentioning Agda here. It has
beautiful dependent types, and tactics are
just programs. Poor Henk Barendregt, not

everybody likes dependent types it seems:

Are we stuck with Lean?
https://mathoverflow.net/q/513742/

Does Depependent types require proof objects,
which waste large amounts of memory. Well,
if you are not good in erasing them.

But is there a Red Pyjama for Proof Assistants,
the baby cradle where LLMs can learn proof
assistant lingua and strategies. It seems

yes, synthetic data corpuses to the rescue:

We address this gap by introducing SMAD
(Synthetic Multilanguage Autoformalization
Dataset), a 400K 4-to-3 parallel corpus
covering four formal languages (Dedukti,
Agda, Coq, Lean) and three natural languages (
English, French, Swedish), generated via
the Informath project.
https://github.com/GrammaticalFramework/informath

But the corpus could be an accident, maybe rather
a toy from the https://www.grammaticalframework.org/
folks, will this have an impact?

Hi,

If only the fucking moron Chris M. Thomasson would
stop spamming his nonsense, he doesn't listen at
all. Problem, he cannot read, he knows nothing.

Its very common that compute shaders can block,
when they are used for General Purpose computation
on GPUs (GPGPU). If only he would pull out his

finger from his asshole, and stop thinking in is
WebGL legacy code stash nonsense. Even the
Cerebras Waver has blocking:

"Cerebras Software Language (CSL), send_color
and recv_color are parameters passed to tile
programs to manage data routing and virtual
channels (called colors) across processing
elements (PEs) on the wafer

Yes, both send and receive operations can block
on a Cerebras Processing Element (PE), primarily
due to the system's hardware-enforced backpressure
mechanism. Because the Cerebras Wafer-Scale Engine
(WSE) relies on a fine-grained,

dataflow-driven architecture, blocking prevents
data loss when hardware resources are
fully saturated."

Blocking and Unblocking
https://sdk.cerebras.ai/computing-with-cerebras#blocking-and-unblocking

Chris M. Thomasson is an annoyance and an idiot.
He is a total waste of time. And represents those
people who cannot use their brain.

#647176 — GPU Elasticity: Collective Communications Libraries (Was: The Wuhan Virus that destroyed Python [ggml Manifesto])

Hi,

How it started, NVIDIA being cool:

NCCL provides routines such as all-gather,
all-reduce, broadcast, reduce, reduce-scatter,
and point-to-point send and receive. These
routines are optimized to achieve high
bandwidth and low latency over PCIe,
NVIDIA NVLink™, and other high-speed
interconnects within a node and over
NVIDIA networking across nodes.
https://developer.nvidia.com/nccl

How its going, vLLM trying to be cool:

[RFC]: Native Weight Syncing APIs
However, there are no standardized methods for
performing online weight syncing. Open source projects
like SkyRL, VeRL, and TRL need to include their
own implementations of the weight syncing
infrastructure, leading to added complexity
for developers seeking to adopt vLLM as their
inference server for post-training workloads.
https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/issues/31848

How much Workers are enough? I guess it depends
on I/O parallelism, CPU Memory parallelism, CPU
Processing parallelism, and now also

GPU Memory parallelism and GPU Processing
parallelism, and last but least you might have
a couple DMAs sitting here and there,

or even invoking a sort of RDMA. Quite amazing!

Bye

#647179 — What are Flits and Phits? [Network on a Chip] (Re: GPU Elasticity: Collective Communications Libraries)

In reply to#647176
Hi,

Recently there was a paper somebody mentioning
a flit doing a ACK or NACK, to express
backpressure inside a Network on a Chip.

But what is a flit? It seems multiple
flits can be used to create the message
passing in one directiob before the

ACK or NACK in the other direction?

"The growing need for performance from
computing systems drove the industry into
the multi-core and many-core arena. In this
setup, the execution of a kernel (a program)
is split across multiple processors and the
computation happens in parallel

Flits represent logical units of information,
while phits represent the physical domain,
that is, phits represent the number of bits
that can be transferred in parallel in a
single cycle. Consider the Cray T3D. It has
an interconnection network which uses

flit level message flow control wherein each
flit is composed of eight 16-bit phits. That
means its flit size is 128bits and phit size
is 16bits. Also consider the IBM SP2 switch.
It also uses the flit level message flow
control, but its flit size is equal to its
phit size, which is set to 8 bits."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flit_(computer_networking)#Example

Well my idea how this is realized in silicon
is rather foggy, I mean even the Hack project
from Nand 2 Tetris, does not show some gate level
schemes for flits and phits.

Could be an interesting extension. But somehow
the image of flits and phits inspired my channel
objects here below. But I am afraid they are fire
and forget, no ACK and NACK:

π-WAM Contest: 1 Million Packets with Prolog
https://medium.com/2989/ec3e91551773

Its amazing that a max_size(1) buffer
can beat an unbounded buffer!

LoL

Bye

Hi,

How it started:

Filming a vitamin B12 photoreceptor in action
https://www.psi.ch/de/news/science-features/filming-a-vitamin-b12-photoreceptor-in-action

How its going:

Elon Musk's potential FEL route could challenge EUV lithography
https://www.kucoin.com/news/flash/elon-musk-s-potential-fel-route-could-challenge-euv-lithography

Who will win the Nano Atom mover race,

will the USA OutChip its competitor China
and its supplier Asia in the next years?

Bye
