@nunzi46 Thanks, Mike!

[Mike Annunziata @nunzi46]

Ever want to get a visceral understanding of the day to day life of startups and government?

Read @atharv_gupta’s “WHAT IS GOVERNMENT?” 👇

It’s an incredibly entertaining and instructive piece. I had the joy of watching it come to life this past few months in his time with us at @CapitalAlso

Thanks: @zebulgar, @ConnorLoveCA, @danielaperlein, @ZakticalComms, @laskerer, @mateocernosek, @NateLoewentheil, @_nav_v and many more for the convo.

And to @nunzi46 & @BrandesWoodall for letting me hang out this fall & the best crash course to VC I could ask for!

Training LLMs with NVFP4 is hard because FP4 has so few values that I can fit them all in this post: ±{0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6}. But what if I told you that reducing this range even further could actually unlock better training + quantization performance?

Introducing Four Over Six, a new method for improving the accuracy of NVFP4 quantization with Adaptive Block Scaling. 🧵
