From The Dunes

Near sunset, and the low light is casting warm tones across the soft rocks and scree at the foot of the mountain.

Close cloud sits atop, catching the last rays of the sun. The quiet lagoon shelters from the worst of the sea and the yellowing grass forms a frame.

October, Kambhorn (650m/2133ft) and Brunnhorn (435m/1427ft) at Stokksnes peninsular in Hornafjörður, south-eastern .

A colour photo of a mountain with a cloudy cap. Low sunlight from the left is highlighting the lower slopes and some of the protruding cloud. In the foreground is a line of yellowed grasses, beyond that is a calm stretch of water reflecting the mountains.

Good morning Fedi friends!

I hope you're having a nice weekend.

I'd like to clear the air re: #WSocial and my opposition to it.

I got a lot of messages on my Mastodon account (several over private DM) trying to dissuade me from speaking up about it and urging me to work on improving the fediverse instead.

I hear you.

But I disagree.

I experienced the same thing last year, when I mentioned I had incendiary evidence about the lack of content moderation on Substack. I had many examples of posts and replies inciting racism, homophobia, fatphobia and xenophobia and spreading dangerous health misinformation. I had taken screenshots and reported them. When I checked back months later, none of my reports had been acted upon. I am talking about seriously heinous messages that are still on there. When I mentioned this on the fediverse, I got many responses urging me "not to waste my time" and "to stay positive" and to "focus instead on helping the fediverse." I did that. Meanwhile Substack is still incredibly popular and most people - even those using it - have no idea of the heinous speech that is allowed on it... and sometimes even monetized. I honestly regret not speaking up. It may not have made a difference, I know (I'm not a megalomaniac) but it makes my skin crawl to think some of the heinous comments are still on there and a young person could come across them and think they are ok. I should have spoken up.

Now, W Social where do I start? Sure, my criticism of it is from a completely different angle. All I want to do is write ONE blog post about its problematic aspects and then I will move on. What is so objectionable about it?

Years ago I wrote a blog post citing all the problems about Dove and its Real Beauty Campaign. It may not have been much, but it was over 10 years ago and the post is still getting hits today. You can see it for yourselves if you look up "The Problem with Dove" and "The Illusionists."

I'm very very lucky to have a little bit of influence on here - I'm immensely grateful for it - and even if I'm preaching to the choir as they say, maybe my advocacy can make a little bit of difference.

My hunch is: staying silent and wishing W Social away is not the way to go. They had a very rushed, botched announcement with no existing product or users. Major security flaws in their setup (I have plenty of evidence). I'd like to write something that you could reference and share... since so far no journalists did any research and simply rehashed the press release of W Social. That's irresponsible reporting – P.R. masked as journalism and it needs to be rectified. That's all I want to do: a blog post about "The Problems with W Social" that hopefully with a sprinkle of SEO magic people can easily find. What's so bad about it? 4 hours of my time and then I'll move on.

Your loyal fedi advocate,

Ele

⚠️ Update: 's internet blackout continues in its third week despite a brief momentary restoration of international connectivity around hour 375. Online platforms are occasionally whitelisted and some users have been able to tunnel out over the last couple of days.

Graph from NetBlocks showing network connectivity in Iran from January 2, 2025, to January 24, 2025. The y-axis represents normalized connectivity, ranging from 0% to 100%, and the x-axis represents the dates. The green line representing Iran's connectivity remains lower than normal most of the time period due to protests, with a sharp drop on the evening of January 8 and a very brief recovery on the morning of January 24. The drop in connectivity aligns with protests across the nation. The minimum and current connectivity levels are indicated as 1% and 1%, respectively. The chart has a dark background with a red horizontal arrow labeled 'SHUTDOWN', indicates the period of disruption, an orange circle highlighting the brief recovery with a label 'BRIEF RESTORATION' and an orange horizontal arrow labeled 'TUNNELING', incidates some users' ability to use circumvention tools.

David Patterson: Challenges and Research Directions for LLM Inference Hardware

Challenges and Research Directions for Large Language Model Inference Hardware

Large Language Model (LLM) inference is hard. The autoregressive Decode phase of the underlying Transformer model makes LLM inference fundamentally different from training. Exacerbated by recent AI trends, the primary challenges are memory and interconnect rather than compute. To address these challenges, we highlight four architecture research opportunities: High Bandwidth Flash for 10X memory capacity with HBM-like bandwidth; Processing-Near-Memory and 3D memory-logic stacking for high memory bandwidth; and low-latency interconnect to speedup communication. While our focus is datacenter AI, we also review their applicability for mobile devices.

ラジオを聴いていたら、北陸の選管の人が「雨でも雪でも選挙を無事に終わらせるのが自分達の仕事です！」と言っていて、そういう批判なき現場マッチョイズムがこの国をダメにしているのでは……と思った。
「こんな雪の降る季節に選挙なんて、迷惑でしかない！」と言える社会の方が健全だよね……。

In cultures like Korea and Japan, taking off your shoes at home is a long-standing tradition. I'm curious about how this practice varies across different regions and households in the fediverse.

How does your household handle shoes indoors?
