Transcript context
…think that, like, honestly, I would pay a lot of extra money to still be able to run binaries on this. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Why not? Lemme do that. You know, I'm paying compute time anyway. I suspect they're gonna do it. Let, lemme go, go wild a bit. They're gonna give it, they're gonna probably roll it out and they're just gonna harden it. And also, I know of somebody that's sort of working in for the company that provides G P U and yeah, they've got things that, that are in there. So they, we probably will see like accelerated things, just like Nissen was saying we were able to run. Torch and things like that. But like, it was so fast. I was like, how is it so fast? And then I realized that, oh, it's just, you know, quite powerful at the time. But I thought it was accelerated. It's not, but it probably will be in the future. Like it's gonna get acceleration. I think when I was, so one of the things I've been using it for is running little micro benchmarks of things just because, like sometimes I like think to myself, oh, I wish I knew if this python idiom or this python idio were faster. And normally I couldn't be bothered to spend 10 minutes knocking up a micro benchmark, but it takes like five seconds and it runs the benchmark and off it goes. But I did get the impression that a month or so ago that it felt like sometimes it had less CPU than others. And I was wondering if maybe it was on shared instances that it got busy, but I dunno, maybe that was an illusion. I'm not sure. Yeah. What, what…
