I ported Microsoft's TRELLIS.2 (4B parameter image-to-3D model) to run on Apple Silicon via PyTorch MPS. The original requires CUDA with flash_attn, nvdiffrast, and custom sparse convolution kernels: none of which work on Mac. I replaced the CUDA-specific ops with pure-PyTorch...

Fine-tuned Chronos-2 on 7 years of EIA-930 demand + ASOS temperature for every US balancing authority that publishes a load series — 53 across the three interconnections. On a 2025 hold-out (~61,000 hours), it beats the operators' own day-ahead submissions to EIA — the product...
