Are you hallucinating or am I? This implementation is 200 lines of Python. Did you mean to link to a C version?

Ya, this reads verbatim on how my OpenClaw bot blogs.

Why is your bot blogging, and to whom?

I was basing this more on the fact that you don't have to look at C code to understand that non cached transformer inference is going to be super slow.
