Deploying DeepSeek on 96 H100 GPUs

by: The SGLang Team , May 05, 2025 DeepSeek is a popular open-source large language model (LLM) praised for its strong performance. However, its large size and unique architecture, which uses Multi-head Latent Attention (MLA) and Mixture of Experts (MoE), require an advanced system for efficient serving at scale. In this blog, we explain how we match DeepSeek's inference system performance with SGLang. Our implementation, shown in the figure above, runs on 12 nodes in the Atlas Cloud, each equ

Considering the Pixel 10 Pro? I recommend buying these 5 phones instead - here's why

Sabrina Ortiz/ZDNET Follow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source on Google. ZDNET's key takeaways Pixel 10 Pro faces tough competition at the $1,000 price tier. Samsung, Apple, and OnePlus offer strong alternatives. Last year's Pixel 9 Pro still delivers great value. Google's latest flagship, the Pixel 10 Pro, is finally here, bringing its Pixelized blend of AI smarts and photographic intelligence to the premium Android space. I'm always excited for the release of a new Pixel, but now more t

Contrastive Representations for Temporal Reasoning

In classical AI, perception relies on learning spatial representations, while planning—temporal reasoning over action sequences—is typically achieved through search. We study whether such reasoning can instead emerge from representations that capture both spatial and temporal structure. We show that standard temporal contrastive learning, despite its popularity, often fails to capture temporal structure, due to reliance on spurious features. To address this, we introduce Contrastive Representati

It's Not Wrong that (for HN) " ".length == 36

Hey! Unintentional clickbait! I am not talking about how a space character has length 36 in Hacker News! If you are coming here from HN the above 🤦🏼‍♂️ emoji have been replaced with a space! A couple of days I published a pretty innocent post to HN. The source article was talking about all the various escamotages techniques used to create new emojis. I noticed after posting it that the emoji have been replaced with a “ “ character. I was pretty sure to have seen emojis in the past on HN titles

Clues for Apple's iPhone 17 Event Point to More Than Thin Phones

The iPhone lineup will forever change on Sept. 9, as Apple's big "Awe Dropping" iPhone 17 event might reveal an ultra-thin model, nicknamed by many as "iPhone Air." Months of leaks, reports and rumors have analysts and pundits not only expecting a new, thinner iPhone in the 10 a.m. PT live-streamed presentation, but also new models of the Apple Watch Series 11 and AirPods Pro 3.

Elizabeth Holmes Suddenly Starts Tweeting Again... While in Prison

Image by Michael Kovac / Getty Images for Vanity Fair / Futurism Developments Convicted fraudster Elizabeth Holmes is still in prison — but she's back online, in the weirdest way imaginable. As it stands, the former CEO of the infamous healthtech startup Theranos is currently serving out an 11-year prison sentence at a minimum security prison in Texas. As a quick recap, Holmes claimed that her company had invented a medical testing device, called Edison, that could detect a wide range of illne

The AYN Odin 3 might solve the biggest problem with the Odin 2 Portal and Pocket 5

TL;DR AYN has revealed design renders for its upcoming Odin 3 gaming handheld. It looks like a mix between the Odin 2 Portal and Retroid Pocket 5, with an ergonomic grip. No specs have been revealed, but we should learn more soon. It’s been a few weeks since AYN first announced the follow-up to its flagship Odin 2, but the company has finally teased design renders in a 30-second YouTube video. It’s one of the year’s most anticipated releases, but the design itself is remarkably familiar. The

Google will throttle Pixel 10 charging, battery and that makes me upset

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority Google announced a mandatory Battery Health Assistance (BHA) feature for the Pixel 9a earlier this year. This feature essentially reduces the battery’s effective capacity and charging speeds as the cell ages, in the name of safety. This greatly concerned me, as the feature was optional for previously released Pixel phones. Now, Google has confirmed that this feature is also mandatory on the Pixel 10 series of phones. And this decision isn’t great at best and

Google Phone app’s Calling Cards are now rolling out widely: Here’s what you need to know

AssembleDebug / Android Authority TL;DR • Google’s “Calling Cards” feature is now widely rolling out in v188 of the Phone app, allowing Android users to personalize incoming/outgoing call screens with full-screen photos and styling options. Calling Cards differs from Apple’s Contact Posters in that it gives you full control over how each contact appears on your device — you set one card per contact manually. Alongside Calling Cards, the updated app introduces major UI changes, including a new

Samsung’s latest dig at the iPhone lacks wit, but it has a cat at least

Robert Triggs / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung has launched a new ad film, teasing Apple for its lack of a folding iPhone. The video shows the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and suggests it is a superior phone for multitasking. Despite its cheekiness, a cute feline, the ad feels dull and not as hilarious as some of Samsung’s older jabs. If you ever comb through the internet for phone brands poking fun at each other, you’re highly likely to find Samsung attempting to ridicule Apple. Some of its videos are

How to screenshot on Windows

Windows offers several built-in ways to take screenshots.

This American nuclear company could help India’s thorium dream

“This license marks a turning point, not just for Clean Core but for the US-India civil nuclear partnership,” says Mehul Shah, the company's chief executive and founder. “It places thorium at the center of the global energy transformation.” Thorium has long been seen as a good alternative to uranium because it’s more abundant, produces both smaller amounts of long-lived radioactive waste and fewer byproducts with centuries-long half-lives, and reduces the risk that materials from the fuel cycle

Google’s working on making it easier to find calls you’ve recorded (APK teardown)

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR Google’s Phone app supports call recording in select areas. Earlier this year we saw the Phone app picking up new filters to sort through your call log. Now the app appears to be working on a filter to quickly display calls that have been recorded. Being able to easily record a voice call is exactly the sort of thing a smartphone should be useful for, but messy legal concerns keep the feature from being nearly as ubiquitous as it should be. Google’s got

The Galaxy Watch 8 is the first smartwatch I’ve ever forgotten I was wearing

Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 The Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 is a sleek, lightweight smartwatch that combines smart features with the robust health tracking of Samsung Health. It's pricier than the Galaxy Watch 7, but it's also a smartwatch that I've genuinely enjoyed wearing and using all day and all night, and that's priceless. I have tested plenty of smartwatches over the years, but after bouncing between premium and mid-range wearables across both Android and iOS, the Galaxy Watch 8 has managed to do

We Asked Dentists: What's the Best Whitening Toothpaste of 2025?

Why we like it: Colgate Optic White Pro Series toothpaste is one whitening toothpaste that Dr. Fatima Khan, a dentist in Houston, Texas, recommends. Some of her reasons for recommending it include its trusted brand name and its 5% hydrogen peroxide whitening agent. Unlike other whitening agents that work by removing stains on the surface of the tooth, hydrogen peroxide can get inside the tooth so it whitens intrinsically as well as extrinsically. Sachar also recommends this toothpaste, saying,

Google adds iPhone-like ‘Calling Cards’ to its Phone app

Google’s Phone app is adding “Calling Cards” that let you customize the appearance of contact screens for incoming calls. They’re similar to the Contact Poster feature that iPhone users have had since 2023, allowing Google Phone app users to replace the teeny contact photos that appear when someone is calling you with full-screen images and stylized names. The update is part of Android’s Material 3 Expressive design language overhaul, which Google used to test a revamped Phone app interface in

Kerry Wan/ZDNET Follow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source on Google. Samsung's Galaxy smartphones are some of the best Android phones available today, thanks to their responsive and feature-rich software. But most Samsung phones -- especially the flagships like the Galaxy S25 Ultra, Galaxy Z Fold 7, and Z Flip 7 -- come with over-the-top features that you might not use daily.

It can hit a peak brightness of over 1,000 nits in HDR, bringing scenes in games to life in vivid detail. Or if you’re on the other side o

The King's Quarry: How Louis XVI Went from Hunter to Hunted

Marie Antoinette on the hunt ( Public domain ) One of the most famous diary entries of all time consists of a single word: rien, which is French for “nothing.” It’s what King Louis XVI recorded on July 14, 1789, the day the Bastille was stormed. This entry (or lack thereof) is often cited as evidence of the king’s disinterest in the brewing revolution. The standard narrative about Louis is that he was simply not up to the task of dealing with the forces that threatened his throne. As a second

Google's New Pixel Studio Is Weirdly Obsessed With the iPhone

Pixel Studio launched on the Pixel 9 series last year, but the Pixel 10 Pro allowed me to spend time testing Pixel Studio using a more advanced generative AI model. The result is better quality images, a much deeper understanding of keywords and a wider range of image styles that can be created. But its quality goes deeper, being now able to generate actual text instead of strings of nonsense as well as creating pictures of people -- including photorealistic depictions of known faces like Taylo
