This is the dumbest conspiracy ever, stop propagating it.

This is unscientific. The burden of proof is on the person making the claim.

If I see "import torch" in your models, is it really 565 LOC?

Weapons are a good thing, in the hands of our liberal democracy. Any leg up we can get on the evil regimes of Iran, China, and Russia, along with the rest of their pathetic "axis" (self named), is a good thing.

This is a stupid straw man. At its most generous face value, you’ve said nothing. At worst you insulted a large swath of people.

I spend a lot of sweat in the guards - I am very interested in how it failed! Can you say more? Did guard creation fail? or did guard check_fn perf overhead destroy it?

> One torch.compile capability I would be excited to see is compatibility with torch.vmap

We added support for torch.func.vmap, iirc - check out test_higher_order_ops.py, grep for vmap.

Pretty cool to see people using compile in the wild :)

Ahhh the find out part of fuck around and find out. Sounds like their unequivocal support for a terrorist organization didn't go so well.

New comment by voz_ in "Uber migrates microservices to multi-cloud platform running Kubernetes and Mesos"

voz_ — Sun, 22 Oct 2023 17:16:03 +0000

Uber Microservices were such an inefficient PITA. There was buzzword soup of a bunch of half baked infra pieces and they were always migrating. Every part of the stack was rotten. Udeploy, xterra, tchannel, schemaless, etc etc.

My peak “wtf” moment was when we had a SEV because two services that should communicate actually used different versions of thrift, both hard forked by Uber, with different implementations for sets. Passing a set from one service to another caused everything to break.

I reject that argument because it is a Jewish state, founded in the wake of the holocaust, attacked for being Jewish in the first days of its creation. For better or worse, It is inseparable. In fact, if you go to Palestine, they do not speak of "Israelis" but of "Jews". Spilling Jewish blood, killing Jews, a curse upon the Jews, etc. You see this with hate crime on synagogues and Jewish homes, Jewish individuals, business world wide a response to what happened in Israel and Palastine.

If your enemies do not make such a distinction, then why should you? It only obscures and confuses what is pretty clear.

Reuters is extremely anti-semitic. They regularly down play the way Hamas stores rockets in schools and hospitals, and misappropriates aid in Gaza

It matters because it shows that the palestinians / arabs are the colonizers. They are the ones who are seeking to displace natives.

Jesus, a Jew, was born in the land called Israel today, well before islam even existed. Al Aqsa is a form of religious domination (building ones holy site on another, older, holy site) and the very presence of palestinians is a form of colonialism.

Hard to move on when other people will kill you for it. Maybe the perpetrators of violence can move on first?

The amount of random wrong stuff about pytorch in this thread is pretty funny.
