       @azonenberg I doubt your pockets will be deep enough for NVlink things involving anything but GPUs :)

       @azonenberg I was assuming that you'd probably (assuming infinite money) could buy an Nvidia server platform that has network->VRAM piping (I assume this because I presume that's what nvidia bought mellanox for)

       @CliffsEsport @azonenberg oh, that's not very similar to the Ethernet you know. The MAC mechanism is *completely* different.

       @azonenberg @CliffsEsport waitwaitwait, you're referring to something that's not ×Base-T1S, right? Because that has PHY-Level Collision avoidance, with a master controlling transmission opportunities based on Node IDs (and methods to keep the system running should the master fail, by another node taking over that job).

       @azonenberg @CliffsEsport "Just" running full-duplex on a single fiber is still a bit cool to me, but yeah, that thing (maybe aside from the "master/slave" phase during link training) a lot more classical.100/1000-T1S  is indeed a lot more like what happens when CAN, someone who hates CAN, and Ethernet raise a protocol child together (lovingly, but competitively). (aunt Firewire comes by once in a while to tell stories of address arbitration)

       hey, @poleguy , that's not cool: check out the pieces @azonenberg commissioned from the same series, done in a very similar style.I get the "let's not boost AI art-simulacra", but this universal "let's doubt everything" that people are getting into lately really hurts real people.

       @poleguy @azonenberg I just realized they might not have survived all social media shifts, so, as a start:https://ioc.exchange/@azonenberg/115497634614768332

       @azonenberg @poleguy hm that post I linked to above doesn't work if viewed from my "home" instance, but works from yours: "bucket not found" error in a JSON object. Maybe this fares better:https://ioc.exchange/@azonenberg/116535645863180873

       @azonenberg @poleguy I should probably link to https://ioc.exchange/@azonenberg/114051170225875530 , though

       @dtl @azonenberg huh, my LEDs at least according to their datasheet should emit a spectrum pretty much centered on 370nm, that shouldn't make much of a differnce. Need to work on better extraction of chlorophyll, it seems.What I use my UV source for: excite little plastic phosphorescent seal figurines, tbh. (and also: prototype for multispectral honey analysis)

       @azonenberg @dtl PLCC 2835. Haha, nowhere 1 W Popt, this is safe without protective eyewear.Xinglight XL-2835UVA-02. (and I found ny mistake – these are 390nm, not 370 nm)

       @azonenberg @dtl "close to toy safety" was actually more important than any other optical spec on this.

       @azonenberg Well we've never met and you might just be really really tiny?

       @azonenberg it's proprietary display-over-USB-Ports thing

       @azonenberg I'd really be curious how well the quadcore RISC-V lends itself to high speed data shuffling

       @azonenberg @datenwolf yeah and Apple M-series has good RAM bandwidths. An RPi, is judging from the single channel and CPU speeds, probably very lucky if what it can cumulatively do between memory and CPU is 10 GB/s, which would be around a factor of 6 less than the old-ish apple M1, and 25 times less than the M4 Pro. Also, how on earth would you get any data into a set-top box SoC like the one in the RPi5? it's maximum peripheral bandwidth is limited by, soldering included, two separate PCIe2x1

       @azonenberg yeah, never keep time in floating point; it's typically not a thing where that makes a lot of sense (this was learned by SDR software *several* times). Your timestamps should just be int64 multiples of some pre-defined time quantum, and you'll be fine. You don't need sub-attosecond accuracy, and neither do you need to be able to measure in millions of years; the fixed 64 bit range suffices.

       @azonenberg yep, need to shift the time values to a "local environment" if you will (extreme example: the interpolator doesn't care about absolute time, you can always shift all times by an integer value so they're zero-centered, locally)

       @azonenberg exactly! (and that's, surprisingly, something that the vernerable and deservedly-so universally disliked libc `struct timespec` gets right, in principle.
