GPU systems engineer. I care about the layer where hardware meets model: correctness, reliability, and the infrastructure that makes AI compute trustworthy.
CUDA kernels don't throw exceptions when they're wrong. This harness surfaces silent failure modes: warp-shuffle reductions returning half the sum, softmax overflowing to NaN on large logits, tile boundaries that break at N=257. Kernels compiled via nvcc, loaded into Python through ctypes, validated against NumPy CPU baselines.
On dissolving the noise of the mind and finding stillness in the present moment.
A lone astronaut, an impossible problem, and the most unlikely friendship in the universe.
On why people think and communicate so differently, and how to actually reach them.
