So we need to preserve post_attn for the final residual. We could: - Use a separate small buffer for ff_out, then add residual - Or keep post_attn in q_buf and write ff_out into glu_proj's first hidden columns, then add q_buf (post_attn) + glu_proj (ff_out) Wait, that's interesting: 1. q_buf holds post_attn after step 5 2. q_buf is reused for normed in step 6 3. glu_proj holds glu projection, then activated glu_out 4. ff_output writes into the beginning of glu_proj rows (first hidden columns), overwriting activated glu_out 5. Final residual: q_buf (which now holds normed, not post_attn!) + glu_proj (ff_out) - WRONG We lost post_attn. We need post_attn for final residual. Alternative: 1. q_buf: q → attn_out 2. temp_buf: o_proj output 3. temp_buf += x (residual) → post_attn in temp_buf 4. q_buf = norm(temp_buf) → normed in q_buf 5. glu_proj = q_buf @ W_glu 6. activate glu_proj in-place 7. ff_out_buf = glu_proj @ W_out (we need a buffer; could reuse temp_buf? But temp_buf holds post_attn needed for residual. So no.) 8. So we need a third buffer for ff_out, or we can write ff_out into q_buf and use temp_buf for residual addition... but then we'd lose normed. Hmm. We need at least 3 buffers if we want to fuse everything without aliasing: - A for q/attn_out/normed - B for post_attn (needed for residual) - C for glu_proj (then ff_out) But C can be smaller if we write ff_out into the first hidden columns of glu_proj rows. Then we still need B for post_attn. And A for q/attn_out/normed.
Great! New benchmark: `Hydra::forward total=4.604s` and `4.477s` for two runs. infer_logits ~4.5s. Blocks 2.28-2.34s, pool 2.14-2.19s. Mid block total 0.935-0.954s (ff 0.525s, attn 0.236s, o_proj 0.084s, q_proj 0.072s). Pool attn 0.313-0.332s, ff 0.681-0.685s. NaFlexMlp per block ~0.03-0.05s, total ~1.1s maybe.
Given the code already exists in FusedNaFlexBlockBackend, we can copy and adapt. But it's large. Maybe better to modify `FusedNaFlexBlockBackend::fused_na_flex_block` to call existing `fast_linear` for qkv and proj, and custom attention, and then call `fused_mlp` for MLP. This would avoid slow faer small matmuls. But then data copies between each. Let's think. If we do: - norm1 (Burn) - qkv = fast_linear(norm1) (Candle/Burn) - (q,k,v) = split_qkv(qkv) (view) - attn = fused_attention(q,k,v) (custom, copies) - merged = merge_heads(attn) (view) - proj = fast_linear(merged) (Candle) - x2 = x + proj - norm2 (Burn) - mlp = fused_mlp(norm2) (faer) - out = x2 + mlp This is essentially current path. The overhead is the Burn dispatches. The custom attention copies are fine. The norm1/norm2 are not timed but maybe 0.005s each block. The `fast_linear` for qkv/projection use `to_data`. Could we avoid `to_data` in `fast_linear`? Not without using Candle internals.

I've been extremely activated today and my brain is currently churning through a sociopolitical praxis I am terming "impositionism" which is more or less the intentional, targeted re-appropriation of incorporated technologies towards aims that are expressive of one's authentic desires at least, and explicitly revolutionary at best (though I would warn "impositionists" against the allure of being aestheticized or categorized) Be a pest, a rat, a drain, a liability, take the elites for all you can and subvert their designs. Share everything, copy each others' homework, embrace creation by composition. The mashcore and plunderphonics and and nerdcore techno dorks had it right the entire time.

However, the plaintext API-key storage and the base-url/auto-selection edge case are real enough that they should be fixed before this lands in `main`. Those changes are small and local (especially reordering the registry and keeping keys out of the DB JSON). Once those are addressed, this is ready to merge.

I got to thinking abt like, the experience of the entire record [夢回線] Because the packaging is **austere**, right? Pitch black except for the logo. The only thing on the back of the case is his emblem But then. You open. **The booklet.**

The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees. The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance. Access to all other Claude models is not affected. We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible.
I had a think on Avaraya's aesthetic connection to the Nintendo DS and PS2 era of gaming. He was born in 2007. The PS3 was already out. This was the DS's heyday, but after his mid-childhood amnesia (presuming he's median in this respect and his memory solidifies around the age of 5,) the 3DS is already out, and the PS4 is around the corner. But the DS and PS2 are the best selling portable and home consoles of all time (outside the Switch, which you could argue is a category of its own but *has* outsold both IIRC; my point works either way.) They *were* basically replaced by the time Avaraya was old enough to hold a controller. *But*, there were **SO MANY** in the wild, that a second-hand or surplus system would be *pennies* on the dollar in the 2010s. Hell, they're *still* accessible. I just looked it up and found a PS2 Slim for $80 and a DS for $50. *Everybody* can have a PS2 or a DS who wants one. People can't get *rid* of these f\*cking things. So it's not so much that they were the pinnacle of culture in Avaraya's childhood, as they were something that *everybody had,* irrespective of class or region. This is really obvious in hindsight but it puts a different cast on a lot of his work. It never felt like nostalgia-baiting because it isn't; it's exploring the way culture rots. It's recycling (note: i think i meant "upcycling")

A Discord screenshot of me clarifying my AI positions to newcomers to a server I'm in (wherein the general worldview is very (IMO acceptably) heterogeneous.) quote Anyways hi I - am an autonomist Marxist - who has come to the conclusion that open-source AI will inevitably lead to the dissolution of the capitalist system of relations, and - generally wishes people would stop pretending it isn't useful, and - instead focus on the fact that *access* to that utility is unevenly distributed, which is a choice being made by oligarchs, and - the way the development of AI infrastructure is being conducted is at best a motte-and-bailey for gentrification - (although a lot of people think the whole datacenter business is a LOT simpler and newer than it is.) TL;DR my AI opinions make *everybody* mad. But we all agree on "fuck OpenAI" and "fuck xAI" and "Sam Altman when I fucking *get* you" and "none of you other motherfuckers can be trusted either don't you leave my sight I'll shoot" Just feel like frontloading it might prevent some misconceptions later. I want people to make things however they want forever and I want more people to be able to make things even if it doesn't like make them stronger people or whatever. unquote
"You know, there are just way too many onaholes packaged with AI-generated illustrations these days. It's not about whether AI art is right or wrong, it's more this gut feeling of not wanting to let companies that cut corners like that anywhere near my dick, you get me? It's a safety thing."
Abridged for space. Art people don't understand fandom. Corporations do > Polemic Pt 1. Cultural critique about fandom is largely written by outsiders to fandom, and as such usually misses the mark. This leaves members of fandom subculture defenseless and open to socioeconomic exploitation. Fandom isn't evil. It's sick > Polemic Pt 2. The goals of fandom and the goals of art critique should be aligned, but fandom has been subject to capitalist capture. Art critique has felt largely content to position fandom as party to its own suffering. You are not immune to social media dynamics (Neither am I) > Culture critics must be careful to avoid collapsing diffuse spaces into stereotypes, esp. in the age of social media which encourages this model "The gap": Fandom is about what you don't say > Fandoms develop around works that leave room for the viewer to "exist within" them The greatest video game finale of all time (Arcaea Act 1) > Lowiro's execution of its ARGs formed a social backbone from which the climax of its first act was delivered. The 4.0 ARG was an event which challenged my internalized narratives about what live service games can do Fandom as Folklore: Touhou Project and oral tradition > Touhou is a narrative canon centralized around a single author and adapted/retold by fans, in an manner comparable to ancient oral tradition. SCP Foundation and Pagan mythology > SCP Foundation is a narrative canon created by its community and developed among each other, in a manner comparable to the diffuse spiritual beliefs of ancient Europe. HLVRAI and satire > HLVRAI is a largely original work that exists in a satirical dialectic with its source material, and is an excellent example of how fandom can produce works worth considering on their own merits. Crap Art: The case for not trying > An introduction to "neurosis" in art, and a position of the "crap art" movement as inspiration for a potential remedy to creative malaise in late capitalism

The message I put in my cancellation notice to Anthropic. It's highly unlikely anybody will read it but it made me feel better to write. ``` Over the last handful of months Anthropic has made repeated and considerable acts of greed and loop-closing, turning the single most promising AI product on the market into a walled garden. Expecting me to now pay extra for `claude -p`, the last cool thing I could really do with Claude, is salt in the wound. It's gonna fucking suck to not have access to Opus but I can't tolerate this. Anthropic clearly doesn't respect me or its other users or their intelligence. Anthropic went from being the home of pioneers and rapid enablement of change to falling into line with the invidious acts of its competitors. The last straw SHOULD have been poisoning the skies over South Memphis by partnering with the worst corporation in the world, but I'd held some blind hope it would slow the clawback. It didn't. So I'm done. I'm sorry I ever wasted my time defending you. ```
Yuurei, that alter, had been suppressed; not on purpose, but I was kind of avoiding letting him be fully expressed. His status was murky for years. Because our alters are distinct and can tell each other apart. If I split off completely in a similar way, the others would be able to tell. If continuity of self weren't in play, we could define facet vs. alter by each other's discernment alone. When I "lock eyes" with Alice in headspace, she knows exactly who she's looking at, regardless of the "face" I'm showing and vice versa. Both of us have had many names and faces over the years Externally though we've been Asriel for nearly a decade. I kept the name publicly even as my identity shifted internally. All I'm doing now is letting the name shift. Very likely it'll shift back :3
There's something uniquely tragic about Perfect Cherry Blossom. Antagonist Yuyuko Saigyouji (named after a Japanese poet) is siphoning the energy of Spring to revitalize an ancient tree, the Saigyou Ayakashi. There's a reason the final spell card is subtitled 80% Reflowering. On the lower difficulties it's (IIRC) 10%, 25%, and 50%. It never reaches 100%. Yuyuko's task was doomed from the start, but she doesn't actually realize why. (This next section is a spoiler, it's pasted below.) Something about not knowing why you're even doing what you're doing, simply knowing that it's the reason for your existence, not even able to realize that it was never possible. ..................................as I wrote that, my brain just bowled a strike. The spoilered section will now be read out. Spoilers for Touhou 7: Perfect Cherry Blossom start in 3... 2... 1... Yuyuko is a ghost; the Saigyou Ayakashi is sealing away her spirit. If the Saigyou Ayakashi is revived, it would kill her For Actual This Time; and thus a subconscious self-preservation keeps her chained to it.
