Recently, I wanted to adjust the frequency of my NVIDIA GPU on Linux because I noticed some software (like FaceFusion) doesn't utilize the GPU at its maximum frequency (e.g., a maximum of 2000 MHz, but only 1850 MHz in practice). So I decided to figure out how to tweak settings like frequency. This article will use `nvtop` and `nvidia-smi` for monitoring.

Recently, I’ve been organizing some videos and realized I have too many. I wanted to shrink some videos that already needed transcoding. Previously, I increased the bitrate by 10-20% to compensate for transcoding losses, but when converting from H264 to HEVC (or other formats), it might not be necessary to increase the bitrate—you might even be able to reduce it.

Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE), also translated as maximum likelihood estimation, is a method for obtaining the optimal parameters of a model from sample data. For example, MLE can estimate the parameters of a probability density function (PDF). If a set of samples/datasets/statistics (likely) follow a normal distribution, we only need to find the mean and variance (or standard deviation) of the dataset to derive the probability density formula that fits the data.

The issue is that the owner and group of files like `/etc/sudo.conf` (and related directories) are no longer `root`. I searched online for solutions and tried many, but none worked—for good reason: I was stuck in a dead loop. Changing permissions with `chown` requires root privileges, which I couldn’t obtain. Worse, I hadn’t set a password for the `root` user.

For some unknown reason, APT suddenly stopped working: only a few default repositories were accessible, while others showed `ign` (meaning they couldn’t be connected to). I tried several mirrors, but the issue persisted. At this point, Wi-Fi was connected, so I suspected a GPG key problem. However, as I tried to fix it, the network stopped working entirely

First, this entry is automatically generated by the system kernel. Even if you delete it, it will reappear after a restart. Therefore, I do not recommend modifying the routing table entries. Instead, adjust the subnet mask (or add a new entry, e.g., `169.254.0.0` with a mask of `255.255.255.0`).

Today, SMB suddenly got slow again—only about 8-9 MB/s. It’s well-known that Apple’s SMB is prone to sudden slowdowns. I tried installing NFS, but it was still slow. I was frustrated. I checked other scenarios like `scp`, and they were all slow too—yet my internet download speed was still fast.

`lstopo` is an excellent tool for generating intuitive, concise system topology diagrams. This article documents small issues I encountered while using it—it is not a comprehensive manual.

I previously mentioned planning to abandon ISPC in favor of C++—ISPC evolves too quickly, and its documentation is poor, making it hard to keep up. Additionally, recent C++ standards have added solid support for official SIMD libraries, eliminating the need for third-party tools like ISPC. While ISPC still offers the best performance, I can no longer keep pace with its updates. However, you could pin to a specific ISPC version for development, as CPU instruction set updates are relatively slow.

Microsoft’s official C/C++ extension for VS Code offers features like syntax highlighting, library recognition, and—most importantly for this article—code formatting. Code formatting automatically adjusts your code to follow a specific standard, making it easier to read. In many large projects, formatting code to meet project standards is required before submission (though some projects use custom formatters, which we won’t discuss here).

You could test the program in a separate terminal, but this is cumbersome. Instead, you can set options and arguments directly by modifying the Xcode Scheme—this eliminates the need to retype commands (or switch windows and use arrow keys) every time you run the program.

I’ve been using ISPC on macOS for a while, but it’s limited by the small number of cores/threads. Recently, I wanted to switch to Ubuntu, but the snap-installed ISPC only ran on a single core for some reason. To fix this, I decided to compile ISPC from source—this requires Clang and LLVM. However, Ubuntu has a quirk: many software versions are tied to the system version, and the default installed LLVM/Clang is version 14, which may lack necessary components. I had no choice but to tackle this, and took the opportunity to study their compilation and usage.

This is a verified step-by-step guide I compiled after multiple tests. Installing Stable Diffusion Web UI and the corresponding xFormers correctly can be extremely tedious—official and online tutorials are often incomplete or scattered. I figured out the process earlier but forgot to document it, leading to installation failures after reinstalling my system. This time, I’m writing it down so you can get everything up and running in **1 hour max** (or under 10 minutes with fast internet).

Yesterday, I spent hours experimenting with Animagine XL V3.1 and realized most tutorials online only give you fish rather than teach you how to fish. Understandably, why share the secrets when you can make money from them? On Xianyu (a Chinese second-hand platform), some people even charge 200 yuan just to deploy Deepseek for others. Still, I want to write this article—it may not be comprehensive, but I’ll try to show you how to find resources or craft your own prompts instead of just copying and pasting.

Recently, while going through D2L (Dive into Deep Learning) code, I frequently noticed the "@" symbol appearing at the very top of classes or functions. Although Chapter 2 explains the comment `#@save` (indicating the following function is pre-defined in the package and can be used directly without redefinition), it does not explain the usage of the "@" symbol itself.

I’ve been using Ollama on macOS for a while without issues, but recently noticed it was running on the CPU after switching to Ubuntu. At first, I thought it was out of VRAM—on macOS, Ollama automatically falls back to CPU if it runs out of memory. However, I found that Llama3.2 3B only uses 3GB of VRAM, which is far from exceeding limits. I checked the command line options but found no relevant settings, so I did some research.

Dynamic Programming (DP for short) is a programming paradigm, not a specific algorithm. It breaks down a large problem into smaller subproblems through recursion—mathematically speaking, it can be expressed as a polynomial. This allows solving problems of different scales with minimal changes to the code (a key advantage of recursion).

Many online articles lack clear explanations of complement graphs, isomorphic graphs, and self-complement graphs. Isomorphic graphs have the same points and edges but different positions, with the same degree sequence. Complement graphs share the same vertex set, with edges in one being those not in the other, forming a complete graph when combined.

SMA (String matching algorithms) have always been my weak spot, and I happened to have a need for them recently, so I took the opportunity to catch up. String matching algorithms primarily involve identifying a substring (pattern, which is sometimes translated as pattern in other contexts, hence sometimes called pattern matching) within a larger body of text, such as finding a word in a text editor or a specific sequence in a DNA strand.
