    Coral issue tracker (and legacy Edge TPU API source)

  • I know the tensor power pixelbook was shutdown and I never heard the actual reason just a bunch of speculation about costs/profitability which is probably true.

    It's a shame that there isn't more competition and development in the neural asic world to harness the power of llms/generative AI on a low power, cheap hardware platform like the pixelbook line. For someone that invented the TPU they have done a not so great job of ensuring it's commercialization and support. Both on the hardware and software side.

    The coral edge tpu seemed to be the right high level idea but without proper execution.

  • steam-runtime

    A runtime environment for Steam applications

  • > Where is it written that steam-run will magically execute most binaries without patching them?

    :p

    But I do get what you're saying. Once Flakes are default, I hope people start a proper push to clear up documentation and streamline the development process. The end-result is amazing, and the perfect OS/packaging system for my needs. The means of getting there... need a lot of work. I'm along for the ride either way.
