From 23 to 5 million years ago, the Miocene rewired Earth. Himalayan–Tibetan uplift reshaped climate and monsoons; Africa–Arabia sutured to Eurasia, enabling massive faunal exchanges; Antarctica's isolation launched the circumpolar current and long-term cooling. Global drying and cooling spurred grasslands, drove mammal diversification, and fostered kelp forests, while creating the habitat mosaic that set the stage for human origins in East Africa. This episode ties deep Earth processes to th...

Goodput, Not Just Throughput: Prefill, Decode, and Rethinking AI Inference
We unpack the core bottleneck in streaming AI: the split between heavy pre-fill computations and fast, memory-light decoding. From chunked prefill to physical separation (DissServe) and logical isolation (DuetServe), we explore how phase isolation eliminates interference, delivering 2x–4.5x better goodput and transforming cost efficiency. Join us as we translate GPU architecture ideas into scalable, user-friendly AI services, with practical takeaways for builders, operators, and decision-make...
