In reply to#896394
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 his
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.

Bye
