…bpb: 1.1231) New SOTA beating previous record of 1.1246. Key techniques: - Tight SWA (scale<0.2, every 50 steps, 16 checkpoints) - Shared Value Embeddings (dim=128, layers 9,10) - Partial RoPE (16/64 dims) + LN Scale - Test-Time Training (25-epoch full-weight SGD, lr=0.008) - cuDNN SDPA (1.18x faster than FA2 for GQA) - Int6+zstd quantization Results: val_bpb=1.1231, 6839 steps, 87.7ms/step, 15.43MB artifact

…le, EMA, Late QAT, TTT Major rewrite targeting top-5 leaderboard: - 11 layers (from 10), BigramHash reduced to 10240 to fit 16MB - XSA (Exclusive Self-Attention) on last 4 layers - Partial RoPE: 16/64 head dims get position encoding - LN Scale: 1/sqrt(layer+1) dampening on deeper layers - EMA (decay=0.997) replaces SWA - Late QAT: STE int6 enabled only in final 4% of training - TTT: 25-epoch SGD on val data post-quantization - FA3 auto-detection with SDPA fallback - Reverted SwiGLU back to relu² (confirmed worse by openai#340, openai#344)
