While there have been efforts by AMD over the years to make it easier to port codebases targeting NVIDIA’s CUDA API to run atop HIP/ROCm, it still requires work on the part of developers.
Over the past two years AMD has quietly been funding an effort though to bring binary compatibility so that many NVIDIA CUDA applications could run atop the AMD ROCm stack at the library level — a drop-in replacement without the need to adapt source code. In practice for many real-world workloads, it’s a solution for end-users to run CUDA-enabled software without any developer intervention.
The x86-simd-sort 5.0 release introduces a new API to sort custom-defined C++ objects via object_qsort. This new sort support of custom C++ objects can be 4~5x faster than using std::sort on AVX-512 systems but ultimately the performance impact will vary based upon the custom class.

Analysts estimate that Microsoft Azure’s revenue, thanks in part to its close relationship with OpenAI, is ~75% as big as AWS’, up from ~50% five years ago — – Microsoft’s cloud is growing significantly faster than Amazon Web Services of late, thanks in part to its cozy OpenAI relationship.

While Microsoft doesn’t disclose revenue figures for its Azure cloud infrastructure, analyst figures suggest that five years ago it was half as big as AWS. Now, it’s about three-quarters the size of its top rival, analysts estimate.
In total, revenue at Azure increased 30% in the quarter, compared with 13% year-over-year growth at AWS.
Microsoft has been adding graphics processing units (GPUs) to its data centers so that clients can run AI models in Azure. That includes GPT-4, a large language model that enables text conversations with OpenAI’s ChatGPT chatbot. Many businesses have been adding similar generative AI capabilities to their products.
“We now have 53,000 Azure AI customers,” CEO Satya Nadella told analysts on the company’s earnings call.
AWS took months to come out with a model that could go up against GPT-4. The company is now offering a number of models in addition to its own, including one from Anthropic, which Amazon backed. On the company’s fourth-quarter earnings call, Amazon CEO Andy Jassy said that AWS offers “the most expansive collection of compute instances with Nvidia chips,” and that customers including Airbnb and Snap are using its homegrown AI processors.
As it stands now, Azure is growing much faster.
And as cloud infrastructure has become a bigger part of Microsoft, making up around 29% of the company’s total revenue, it’s also become a meaningful contributor of profit.

250 million-plus reserved IPv4 addresses could be released – but the internet isn’t built to use them
A new chapter in the long saga of the 240/4 block is being written. If you want more and cheaper IPv4, maybe you should help https://www.theregister.com/2024/02/09/240_4_ipv4_block_activism/
Viimeiset kaksi vuotta älykellojen myynti on laskenut, mutta tälle vuodelle Canalys ennustaa neljän prosentin kasvua. Kaikkiaan kelloja myydään 1,17 miljardia ja puhelimistaan paremmin tunnettu OnePlus yrittää ottaa tästä markkinasta omansa. Helppoa se ei tule olemaan.
OnePlus Watch 2 on yhtiön toinen yritys markkinoille ja rehellisesti sanottuna ensimmäinen vakava. Kellossa on lähdetty nyt erottautumaan omilla ratkaisuilla ja samalla käyttöjärjestelmä on vaihdettu omasta Googlen Wear OS 4:een. Molemmat ratkaisut ovat fiksuja.
Kaapeleille on aina etsitty langattomia korvaajia ja esimerkiksi Bluetooth on siinä ollut huikea kaupallinen menestys. STMIcroelectronics ehdottaa nyt 60 gigahertsin linkkiä, jolla voisi korvata USB 2.0 -tasoiset kaapelit. Yhtiö kutsuu tekniikkaa nimellä eUSB.
Itse asiassa kyse on lähetin-vastaanotin -piireistä (ST60A3H0- ja ST60A3H1), jotka muodostavat yhteyden 60 gigahertsin alueella ilman erillistä pariliitosta. Piireillä muodostetaan käytännössä tunneli, jonka läpi voidaan siirtää niin eUSB2-, I2C-, SPI-, UART- kuin GPIO-dataa.
Piirit poistavat kaapeleiden ja liittimien tarpeen kuluttajaelektroniikan lisävarusteista ja henkilökohtaisista laitteista, kuten digikameroista, puettavista laitteista, kannettavista kiintolevyistä ja pelikoneista. Niillä voidaan lisäksi ratkaista tiedonsiirron haasteita teollisissa sovelluksissa, kuten pyörivissä koneissa.
ST:n eUSB-linkki kuluttaa 130 milliwattia tehoa eUSB-lähetyksessä ja -vastaanotossa, ja vain 90mW UART-, GPIO- ja I2C-tiloissa. Kun linkki ei ole käytössä, tehonkulutus putoaa vain 23 mikrowattiin.
Linkin yli voidaan siirtää dataa USB 2.0:sta tutulla 480 megabitin sekuntinopeudella, joten vauhti riittää moneen sovellukseen. Pitää muistaa, että yli gigabitin datansiirto on monissa laitteissa kaapeliteitsekin vasta suunnitteilla.
Unlicensed 60 GHz RF millimeter-wave band usage opens new opportunities for short-range contactless connectivity by enabling unprecedented multi-Gigabit data rates.
The ST60 RF Transceiver for the 60 GHz band provides a very power-efficient wireless link with a high data rate, eliminating the need for physical cables and connectors for short range (a few centimeters), point-to-point communications.
ST60 offers best-in-class wireless performance with transfer speeds up to 6.25 Gbps along with very low power consumption.
Suuret yritykset julkistaneet viime vuoden tuloksiaan ja amerikkalaisjätit Apple, Microsoft, Alphabet, Meta ja Amazon tekivät 1,6 biljoonan dollarin liikevaihdolla 290 miljardin dollarin nettotuloksen. Tässäkin vertailussa Apple oli omaa luokkaansa.
Nykyisille akkutekniikoille etsitään koko ajan tehokkaampaa ja turvallisempaa korvaajaa. Delftin teknillisen korkeakoulun tutkijat ovat yhdessä Kiinan tiedeakatemian kanssa saattaneet löytää tähän asti parhaan akkuratkaisun.
Tutkijat ovat kehittäneet natriumioniakkuteknologiaa kehittämällä pikalatausominaisuuksia ja parantamalla negatiivista elektrodia orgaanisilla materiaaleilla, mikä vähentää riippuvuutta harvinaisista materiaaleista. Lisäksi he ovat parantaneet katodia ja luoneet korkean energiantiheyden nopeasti latautuvan materiaalin, jossa ei ole kobolttia. Tämä materiaali kestää nykyisiä pidempään, koska sen rakenne muuttuu asteittain käytön aikana.
