I’ve tested a 02 as the head node, but I’ve never been able to get enough of them to fully populate a cluster. 20 cores would help a lot, but the lack of RAM on the 02 will hold it back significantly

It’s uselessly slow, even as a training cluster.

Necro I know, but I thought my pocket Pi cluster would fit here: terrible-pi

IIRC there was a hack to upgrade an SGI O2 with the R5000 module with one of these.

This makes sense only if you’re rolling your own silicon, and it depends on the application. I could see this as an alternative to a scalar DSP core or to provide more flexible high speed interfaces. The unspoken cost is going to be adding another proprietary set of tooling in the BSP for your chip.

It’s a shame that analog inference accelerators are taking so long to hit the market. GPUs are way too expensive and power hungry for inference when you don’t need the ability to train a network.

“Never trust HR” is a good policy. I keep my health to myself at work as well. I don’t need special treatment or accommodations, and I’m not working in a field where my meds would be a concern.

However you don’t need to go into detail. If you want to be completely discreet, ask for another copy of the HR benefits plan, then look through it yourself to see if you have separate mental health services coverage or a counseling hotline.

Once you’re talking to any insurers or care providers then HIPAA (assuming you’re in the US) takes over and your privacy is assured.

And like someone else said, set up an FSA if you haven’t already. It’s free money and makes high deductible plans sting less.

But worst comes to worst, you have to pay $800. That’s a decent amount of money. But think of it as an investment in yourself. You’ll see that $800 back when you feel less stressed about work and find it easier to advance in your career.
