I got well-ackshully'd by my watch in class today. I failed to turn off the "talk to Gemini by raising your hand to your mouth" thing. It never works but it triggers sometimes writing on the blackboard. I said "the drive's read head parks" and my watch burst out "THAT IS CALLED THE ACTUATOR" dead

15 years ago today my home shook as a bomb went off a few blocks away. July 22. broke something in all Norwegians. As so many others I attended a funeral. My kids second cousin, who I might’ve briefly met at a family reunion a few years earlier, was killed at Utøya. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011_No...

I'm really happy here. When I originally joined TT I was proud to say that everyone I worked with cared and wanted to do the right thing. That started to change, and as it changed, so did my happiness. Nekko aligns closer with what I hopped TT would and could have been in my imagination.

Please note: Any claims of AI Exascale, AI Zettascale or beyond computing power are just baloney. Real computing power is measured in FP64. Period. AMD embraced utter stupidity by adopting this terminology by the leather jacket man. It's a really shame! #CES2026 #AMD

The goal of tenstorrent is owning your silicon future. Putting aside the marketing, it's on the company to own that and make it happen. Their is a lot of work that still needs to be done, and it's work that will never be finished.

I want to thank @theregister.com for the comprehensive review of the @tenstorrent.bsky.social Blackhole Quiet box. Blackhole is a fascinating bit of kit, and we're hopeful that, over time, our software team can enable and fix all of the very fair points of critique mentioned.
