"[…] yes, compilers have gotten a lot better, but not only did vectorization turn out to be much harder in practice than the trivial examples were […] I personally cannot find a single benchmark that does anything I would ever do […]"
Intel 4 achieves 20% better performance, scales logic density 2X, while reducing costs through design co-optimization, new materials, and judicious use of EUV lithography. It will ramp with the Meteor Lake compute tile to high volume manufacturing in 2023 realworldtech.com/intel-4
Intel just released a fantastic history of the transistor, tracing the evolution of this marvelous technology. The dimensions are accurate too :) youtube.com/watch?v=Z7M8etXU…
If there are any RWT readers attending #hotchips2021 we have a slack channel for real time chat - drop in to h-rwt and chat with .@TheKanter and others!
Happy 25th birthday to me! It’s been a wonderful quarter century of articles and forum discussions…here’s to 25 more!!!

Congrats to all the amazing presenters! We can't wait to hear the great talks.
See you Aug 22-24, don't forget to register at hotchipssymposium.regfox.com…
Happy new year everyone! We are #1 on HackerNews again...apologies if the site's a little slow. Apparently folks are really interested in ECC for client systems :) news.ycombinator.com/item?id…
Happy anniversary to the whole RWT community, which is now 24 years old! We are thrilled to still have lively discussions and occasional articles and hope to continue for many years to come!
Vendors brag about the transistor count of their design. However, transistor count, density varies based on the design. The result is that transistor count, density are approximate metrics and focusing on those numbers loses sight of the bigger picture realworldtech.com/transistor…

The theme of #SC19 was combining machine learning with HPC. We heard about new technologies from Nvidia, Graphcore, and Cerebras Systems and the challenges of benchmarking HPC systems for machine learning. realworldtech.com/sc19-hpc-m…

Speaking with David Kanter about how RDNA is actually different from GCN with the AMD Navi GPUs, including an explanation of waves, warps, and cache: youtube.com/watch?v=V7wwDnp8…
Congratulations to the #MLPerf community (including @TheKanter) who helped create the v0.5 machine learning training benchmarks. Results are public, with great work by Google, Intel, and Nvidia.
