Released a paper that we haven't had a chance to formally publish yet. NTC suffers from divergence at runtime, and we were exploring ways to avoid it. A work uses a generalized decoder for NTC, but ours uses a NN to upscale texels arxiv.org/abs/2611.07289

What would an ideal shader compiler look like? I listed ten traits, then scored eight real ones against them. Every item exists somewhere, eight of them in a single project. Nobody has put all ten in one library... Yet! 😉 bkaradzic.github.io/posts/id…

Hello you fine Internet folks, Today's article is on Qualcomm's "Performance" Oryon AKA Oryon-M and how it compares to Arm's Neoverse N2 (the server version of the Cortex A710) and Intel's Skymont. Hope y'all enjoy! chipsandcheese.com/p/perform…

“Performance” Oryon: Qualcomm’s Little Core

Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X2 Elite uses a hybrid core setup, breaking away from the all-big-core strategy that the company previously used with in-house core designs.
