Coincidentally, the first issue (referencing Navi 21) was the one I started these experiments with, and this turned out to be pretty informative.

Our Navi 21 would almost always go AWOL after a test run had been completed, requiring a full reboot. At some point, I noticed that this only happened when our test runner was driving the test; I never had an issue when testing interactively. I eventually realized that our test driver was simply killing the VM when the test was done, which is fine for a CPU-based test, but this messed with the GPU's state. When working interactively, I was always shutting down the host cleanly, which apparently resolved this. A patch to our test runner to cleanly shut down VMs fixed this.

And I've had no luck with iGPUs, as referenced by the second issue.

From what I understand, I don't think that consumer AMD GPUs can/will ever be fully supported, because the GPU reset mechanisms of older cards are so complex. That's why things like vendor-reset [3] exist, which apparently duplicate a lot of the in-kernel driver code but ultimately only twiddle some bits.

What's amazing is that they needed her help.

There's a reason SBF was arrested and tried within a year while other complex financial fraud cases take years to get a conviction.

Dec 11, 2008: Madoff arrested; scheme revealed.

March 12, 2009: Madoff pleads guilty to 11 federal felonies.

June 29, 2009: Sentenced to 150 years in prison and ordered to forfeit $17.179 billion.


In Madoff's case, he confessed to his sons. So again, this was a case of an insider having the goods, not the result of a speedy investigation.

Your timeline is correct, but once Madoff was confronted he just confessed and everything moved forward.

I mean yeah Madoff confessed and made the case open and shut.

SBF entered a Not Guilty plea but Ellison for all intents and purposes entered a Guilty plea on his behalf with her co-operation.


She also had no choice, as SBF was blaming her. The point being that they still didn't really need her help. It was obvious that he committed fraud, and there was plenty of proof of it.

Well it was het fund that lost customers money

I mean, the guy was constantly high on nootropics and they had no idea what actual investments FTX made. I'd imagine most of the time was just spent untangling that web, his case was more or less a slam dunk.

Good find, thanks!

works for me.

Same... and the second one hit me just as hard. Glad I did it though.


Dissonance runs straight through from top of the org chart.

SemiAnalysis made this a base requirement for being appropriately ranked on their ClusterMAX report, telling me it is akin to FAA certifications, and then getting hacked themselves for not enforcing simple security controls.

It is crazy how this gets perpetuated in the industry as actually having security value, when in reality, it is just a pay-to-play checkbox.


My favorite one is the "We've identified a security hole in your website"... and I always respond quickly that my website is statically generated, nothing dynamic and immutable on cloudflare pages. For some odd reason, I never hear back from them.


This should just be online content, translated into as many languages as possible, and everyone on the planet should have free access to it.


Spectral just did a thread on that.
