Comment Weaning China off CUDA (Score 3, Interesting) 52

It'll take a few years for Chinese GPUs to catch up with NVIDIA. But if Chinese firms are locked into the CUDA stack they'll have to keep buying NVIDIA anyway.

So I suspect the Chinese government is encouraging tech firms to stop using CUDA, so they can switch to Huawei or Cambricon chips at a later date.

Comment What will the numbers be in December? (Score 2) 74

Getting high solar output during summer is nice, but they're getting 15-20 hours of daily sunlight in the higher latitudes.

It'll be interesting to see the solar number in mid-Winter, when the days are 6 hours long and the sun is low on the horizon. I suspect coal use will ramp up to keep the lights on and the heat pumps running.
