I’m excited to share our recent article focusing particularly on PyTorch and exploring a spectrum of techniques—both programmatic and hardware-related—to optimize training times. Take a moment to explore Scaletorch and share your thoughts with us.

Home | scaletorch.ai

Scaletorch is a platform that speeds up the training of deep learning models by 10x-200x on the same number of GPUs with zero code change.

Why HashiCorp Stock Dropped Todayattachment image

Shares of HashiCorp (NASDAQ: HCP) fell 16.4% on Friday despite stronger-than-expected quarterly results from the cloud infrastructure software company. The market appears to be concerned with declining revenue retention trends from HashiCorp’s existing customers.

Even M$ had to eat its words and embrace Linux, how is it possible for Hashicorp goes away without penalties? I had fixed a few issues for Terraform and Packer, I think my observations are valid. I am patient to wait for another few years, similar to the rise of Postgres under the shadow of Mysql

Short: Thanos / VictoriaMetrics? Long: Hello, We are extremely heavy user of Thanos, we saves billions of samples each day, and around 6M unique series Prometheus instances consumes around 150GB~ ram MinIO consumes around 40-70GB ram (we considering switch to garage, so no problem here) And whenever we query over period of time (weeks/months) , thanos components consumes around 30-80GB ram (query frontend, storegateway etc), and lots of CPU Does VictoriaMetrics will consume less GB without sacrifice performance ?

The @37signals team made waves earlier this year by exiting the cloud and moving on-premises.

Almost one year later, with receipts in hand, I’ll be checking in with @dhh on costs, tradeoffs, and Kamal, their custom deployment tool that helped them do it. https://t.co/2zOqoeHYDf
