I had the pleasure of working with Johannes as part of Google Summer of Code in 2020 and 2021 working on LLVM. He mentored me and many students over the years.

I remember in 2020 he would meet with us at 7AM his time to accommodate every student he was working in different parts of the world (Turkey, Greece, China, Japan iirc), I was the one from Turkey.

I had Coffee with him and his wife few months back. He was so full of life despite everything.

He touched the lives of many people. What a great life lived despite being so short.

Hello HN, I wrote a fuzzer that can generate ISA docs for NVIDIA GPU architectures.

Here are is docs for hopper(sm90a) https://kuterdinel.com/nv_isa/

and here is for 4090 (sm89) https://kuterdinel.com/nv_isa_sm89

I am here to answer your questions if you have any!

It looks like the future for laptops is ARM. I hope Lenovo makes a ThinkPad with this chip, there already is a ThinkPad with a Snapdragon SoC (ThinkPad X13s), but from what I have read it's not very good. I considered getting a MacBook to use with Asahi but some important features are still unsupported (like HDMI output support).

I did something similar for Instagram on android few years ago. The usual methods for bypassing certificate didn't work on Instagram, they were statically linking openssl into a shared library called libcoldstart.so. I Spent some time reading openssl documentation and ended up installing a hook to the function that configured the certificate verification.

In case you are curious. I used Frida for installing hooks to native functions.

The entire thing runs in the browser without needing a backend (unlike godbolt).

Fun challenge: Look at the source code and figure out how it works.

The deal breaker with obsidian for me is that it is not opensource. It's great that it's at least using a markdown derivative format.

I am using Emacs Org Mode and quite happy with it. You can link different files, include images, embed and view LaTeX, encrypt your notes with GPG and much more. I think it will stand the test of time better than Obsidian which is something I care a lot for note taking and journaling.

Few points:

- Not sure if people would want to "talk to" a device in public.

- Anything and more that this device do can be done by a smart phone that people already have.

- I feel like people prefer using a UI interface instead of speech.An example to this behavior might be using delivery apps instead of calling a restaurant.

- Looks too wide to fit into most pockets.

I wonder if the recent departure of Kyle Vogt from Cruise is related. Emmett Shear and Kyle Vogt founded Twitch together.

Took a peek at the models they use. It seems to be a vision transformer encoder decoder architecture with a resent backbone. Looks really good. I had a similar idea of training a model and making a desktop application, but haven't had the opportunity. I wonder how much compute it took to train the model.

I think this paper was the first one to do OCR on LaTeX: http://cs231n.stanford.edu/reports/2017/pdfs/815.pdf The paper describes an Encoder-Decoder architecture with CNN encoder and LSTM based decoder.

I am the author of the article, please let me know if you have questions.

Hello HN, I am graduating in a few months, last summer I was an SWE intern at Google before that I did a Google Summer of Code with the LLVM foundation working on the inter-procedural optimizations. I enjoy taking on deeply technical challenges. Although I have more professional experience towards low level programming. I enjoy experimenting with Deep Learning in my spare time. I am also very interested to learn more about finance when I have time.

I was an intern last summer at Google, currently looking for new graduate (graduating in October) and internship positions for this summer (only if you are willing to sign and stamp some paperwork in Turkish :/)

For internship positions the technology preferences are not hugely important, so surprise me with something interesting (I can write Java, C#, JavaScript etc)

This is kinda funny but I was going to try to get it merged to mainline but then realized there was already a similar patch waiting on review.

This my code, large part of it is based on other HP WMI stuff https://github.com/kuterd/hp_omen_led_controler
