43c29dd9d5 Big DataLoader refactor: BOS-aligned dataloaders with epoch tracking for pre/mid-training
The new DataLoader ensures that every token sequence in train/val batches has a BOS token
at the beginning. Therefore, no token streams start abruptly in the middle of a document,
which could be confusing for the model. Note that this changes the loss scale because there
are fewer confusing tokens in the train/val batches. The main downside is that we now waste
about 35% of tokens due to cropping. This is ok because we have a lot of data. See dev/LOG.md
entry for this change for a lot more information.

aa42f40e66 delete the inline rustbpe project. it was ugly to have a project within project and rustbpe is now nicely a separate repo on my github karpathy/rustbpe and it's on pypi etc., so we just add it as a depedency to uv. i think it is appropriate that this is a separate repo because 1) it doesn't have too many knobs, other than the ones that are exposed - the regex pattern and vocab size and 2) all of its complexity is not algorithmic (it's equivalent to minbpe), instead it is efficiency-related, so it is ok to hide relatively speaking 2026-01-03 23:55:28 +00:00
