Storypath Ultra Core Manual Finalized PDF Published - Lemmy.World
The Storypath system is descended from the systems used in Vampire: the
Masquerade, World of Darkness and other stuff from White Wolf publishing.
There’s already games published by Onyx Path that implement Storypath (such as
Trinity Contiuum & Scion), but this is a generic version with example settings
included. This finalized version actually came out over a week ago, but today I
noticed that despite the apparent interest in Storypath on Backerkit, nobody on
r/rpg or here had posted about the announcement. I haven’t played it yet myself;
does anyone here have experience with or interest in Storypath? Note: While the
PDF is available now, it’ll be some months before the hardcover ships.
Is there any technical reason for some memory bus widths only showing up in cut-down GPUs?

Is there any technical reason for some memory bus widths only showing up in cut-down GPUs? - Lemmy.World
There are some bus widths that are used in full discrete GPU dies and some that
I’ve only ever seen in cut-down GPUs. Full-die GPU memory bus widths seem to
always be:
64-bit × 2n × (1 or 0.75)
where n is a whole number. Cut-down models can feature pretty much any multiple
of 32 bits. ## Examples: - 128-bit bus: common in entry-level GPUs (RTX 4060, RX
6600 XT) - 160-bit bus: occasionally shows up in cut-down designs (Arc B570) -
192-bit bus: common in midrange & entry-level GPUs (RTX 5070, Arc B580) -
256-bit bus: common in midrange GPUs (RX 9070 XT, RTX 3070 Ti) - 320-bit bus:
occasionally shows up in cut-down designs (RX 7900 XT, RTX 3080) - 352-bit bus:
Appeared in the RTX 2080 Ti, which was cut down - 384-bit bus: common in
upper-midrange & high-end GPUs (RX 7900 XTX, RTX 4090) Any insights into why
this is? As a layperson, it seems like having a full die with perhaps a 160-bit
bus for the entry level or a 224-bit bus for the midrange would at least
occasionally make sense.
Photonic Network-on-Wafer for Multi-Chiplet GPUs (2023)

Photonic Network-on-Wafer for Multi-Chiplet GPUs (2023) - Lemmy.World
If you think GPUs are big today, you ain’t seen nothing yet. This baby
(theoretically) scales all the way up to a 300mm wafer. Abstract > This paper
introduces the Photonic Network-on-Wafer (NoW) GPU architecture to overcome
fundamental limitations in electrical interconnect scaling by implementing the
inter-GPU network in a wafer- scale optical interposer. We argue that the
photonic-NoW GPU is a scalable architecture, delivering significant performance
benefits in a power-efficient manner.

What are some good resources to learn to write very reliable/formally verifiable software?

What are some good resources to learn to write very reliable/formally verifiable software? - Lemmy.World
The University of Pennsylvania offers a free series of books called Software
Foundations [https://softwarefoundations.cis.upenn.edu/] with the following
description: > The Software Foundations series is a broad introduction to the
mathematical underpinnings of reliable software. > > The principal novelty of
the series is that every detail is one hundred percent formalized and
machine-checked: the entire text of each volume, including the exercises, is
literally a “proof script” for the Coq proof assistant. The series includes
Verifiable C [https://softwarefoundations.cis.upenn.edu/vc-current/index.html],
which seems very appealing as a way to avoid some of C’s infamous “footguns.” I
haven’t read the series myself, but I might in the future because I like math,
logic & programs that do what they’re supposed to do. Are there any materials
that would be good as alternatives or complements to this series?
