I'm over on Mastodon now at @[email protected]
- Here's a closer look at Nvidia's "bring up board" for the 2.7kW GB200 that Jensen showed of on stage yesterday. Notice this one has the power phases around the Blackwell GPUs. #GTC24
- Replying to @echo5julietNo. All liquid cooled. Hot Isle would be brutal otherwise
- Wait, @amazon built a mesh network out of Echos and Ring doorbells? And now developers can tap into it? Imma be honest, I find that more than a little creepy. Check out my breakdown @TheRegister #mesh #networking #smarthome #IoT
- Today marks the end of a journey and a bittersweet one at that. It's my last day as an editor @sdxcentral. But rest assured, my days of covering tech are anything but over. Stay tuned for more on my plans in the coming days. Trust me, you won't want to miss it.
- DC bus bar. Tons of NVLink copper interconnects vaguely visible, and of course the water cooling rack manifolds going up the outside edge. As I understand it, everything is blind mate out the back. InfiniBand networking is out the front — hyperscale style. #GTC24
- I’m thrilled to announce I’ve joined @TheRegister as the new Systems Editor for @sitpub. I’ll be covering everything from the major OEMs to data center, colo, cloud, and service provider networking and infrastructure. #LifeUpdate #Career #journalism
- Here’s a look inside of a non-DGX GB200 system from Ingrasys @HonHai_Foxconn Those are blanks in the back standing in for the real chips if you’re wondering. #GTC24
- Only? Weird how Llama3 runs just fine on my 3-yr-old M1 MacBook Air via Ollama
00:00 - Replying to @mweinbachMy Fiancé until just recently was a devout Android user. Maybe its just Pixels, but her phone was always bugging out. Apps soft crashing in unpredictable ways; networking headaches; Bluetooth dropping at random. iOS isn't perfect, but I rarely have issues like that.
- In the 5 years since I proposed, my fiancé and I moved to a new city, started new jobs, adopted a dog, and weathered a pandemic. As we enter 2024, I’m excited to say we’re finally getting around to planning a #wedding, tentatively for the summer of 2025.
- For the love of all that is good and silicon, not everything is automatically an AI chip now. I've seen reports calling Axion an AI chip. It's NOT. It's a CPU. It does CPU things. Also TPUv5p is NOT new.
- My Fiancé won't let me buy a proper rack/rack mount gear until we get a bigger place. So, this my evening project. What's your "rack" situation look like? #100DaysOfHomeLab
