My problem here, and I don't mean to victim blame but I don't understand why anybody thought Honey had a business model that was trustworthy. Most people would see through the slimy guy in your example, so why would they install a slimy guy in their browser? Why would people take sponsorship from a slimy guy? Why would they read our copy that tells kids to "install it on every computer in the house"?
Nobody asked themselves "How does Honey make money out of this?" because at the very least they were going to be data scraping! That much was obvious.
It also happened in the UK and I suspect other European countries with significant wind generation. Is this still a rare event in Germany? 2-3 times a month isn't uncommon here. Especially in the winter.
I struggle to call this capitalism. It's so twisted and corrupt it doesn't resemble what it started out as.
Yes it's imports. Norway / France and Netherlands mainly.
It's the coal they're burning.
UK for comparison (Average over year)
| GW | % | |
|---|---|---|
| Coal | 0.18 | 0.6 |
| Gas | 8.31 | 27.7 |
| Solar | 1.52 | 5.1 |
| Wind | 9.36 | 31.1 |
| Hydroelectric | 0.41 | 1.4 |
| Nuclear | 4.36 | 14.5 |
| Biomass | 2.15 | 7.1 |
Edit: Imports are the remainder
enabling unmodified CUDA applications to run on AMD GPUs at near-native performance, the ZLUDA atop AMD HIP code was made available and open-source following the end of the AMD contract
Trouble is... HIP doesn't support all of AMDs GPUs. It's only 7900s in the consumer line-up.
Not sure I'd be trusting Musk's communication network at this point. Especially not in Ukraine.
Matrix math is just stupid for whatever you pipe through it. It does the input, and gives an output.
Indeed.
That is exactly what all these "NPU" co processing cores are about from AMD, Intel, and to a further subset Amazon and Google on whatever they're calling their chips now. They are all about an input and output for math operations as fast as possible.
Yes, they are all matrix math accelerators, and none of which have any FPGA aspects.
I know exactly what they are. I design CPUs for a living, use FPGAs to emulate them, and have worked on GPUs and many other ASICs in the past.
FPGAs can accelerate certain functions, yes, but neural net evaluation is basically massive matrix multiplies. That's something that GPUs are already highly optimised for. Hence, why I asked what circuit you'd put on the FPGA. Unless you can accelerate the algorithmic evaluation by several orders of magnitude the inefficiency of FPGAs Vs ASICs will cripple you.
That's still a shitty exploitative business model. A bit less deceptive, but that original coupon vendor is still having affiliate revenue stolen from them.
