Date: August 24th, 2026 11:40 PM Author: Ivory new version Say it begins like this:
We need to compute the trajectory. (where compute means calculate)
Then this transitions to: This run needs a lot of compute. (compute here is a noun meaning computational resources).
Then eventually: We computed the hell out of that benchmark. (where this verb version doesn't mean calculate but instead means threw computational resources at it) |
