Oh wow, yes!
I'd forgotten that that was where the cryptographic keyboard was, that can only be tampered with with specialist (but pocket-sized) tools!

I would understand if you said that you two got to first base or second base, but where does moon base fit in? Is it after home run?

The home run was in the opening credits - you did watch them, didn't you?

The big question is why,
Has Mrs O bought her self a chastity belt or just a lock for the fridge?

No, I just caught a couple of "lockpickinglawyer" vids on YouTube, and found them strangely compelling. And it's a subject that I knew absolutely nothing about, so it piqued my interest. It escalated from there ... now I have a set of picks, a bunch of learning locks, have made a few wiper tensioners for top tensioning, and keep looking at HUK "lock dismantling" kits because "that E-clip removal tool looks really good".
Herself is under the impression I'm about to start collecting locks.

Right...
That sounds very convincing.
My bet is still the fridge!

It's kinda difficult to explain, but it's fascinating to watch someone who really knows what they are doing, doing what they do best. It's the "unconscious competence" that they demonstrate, I suspect. It's what taught me to change motorcycle tyres, fix their engines, rewire the electrics, etc. ...
You never lose anything by watching a master at work, and you might learn something.

Very true. Some very useful and practical skills to learn.
Maybe I should learn a new skill, like "Robbing A Bank"
But where could I use that. Hmmm

Most thieves don't pick locks - they smash a window, or force a door. It's easier, quicker and requires less skill. Locks are there to deter the honest!

That's a coincidence, I saw a video recently of a guy picking a lock ( can't remember where though ) and it too piqued my inquisitive nerdy head - I've ordered a cheap beginners set of tools from Amazon - new page on this site maybe ? Lockpickers Q & A

It's a marketing term, obviously.
But hiding behind that is a set of genuinely useful instructions, not exclusively for "deep learning" (whatever that is).
VPDPBUSD (base intrinsic: _mm_dpbusd_epi32 ), in the words of the official guide,
Multiply groups of 4 adjacent pairs of unsigned 8-bit integers in a with corresponding signed 8-bit integers in b, producing 4 intermediate signed 16-bit results. Sum these 4 results with the corresponding 32-bit integer in src, and store the packed 32-bit results in dst.
So it's like a slightly more elaborate version of the old PMADDUBSW (aka _mm_maddubs_epi16 ), summing groups of 4 instead of 2 and with an extra 32-bit addition at the end. There is also a version where the final sum is saturating. Since it sums together groups of 4, it has 32 bits to represent the sum of 4 products, and it is easy to avoid saturation. This is different from working with PMADDUBSW which sums together two adjacent 16-bit products with saturation, which in many cases limits the useful range of your scale factors.
It's also actually a fast instruction (CTRL+F for VNNI), at 2 operations per cycle. It's not inherently faster than VPMADDUBSW, but you get more range on your scale factors so the amount of useful work goes up a bit. The 512 bit version does not look super useful yet, possibly even harmful: it's twice as wide but can be done half as often so it does not increase the amount of work done per cycle, and since it is a 512bit instruction it may have funny side effects such as reducing clock speed and fusing ports 0 and 1, who knows, be careful.
Unfortunately there is still no VPMULLB or VPMULHUB or VPMULHB. Intel, AMD, please.

Good to know that there are still people interested in Assembler, the last time I tried it must have been 30 years ago
