2010 Speedway World Cup

The 2010 FIM PGE Polska Grupa Energetyczna Speedway World Cup[1] (SWC) was the tenth FIM Speedway World Cup, the annual international speedway world championship tournament. It was originally scheduled to take place between 24 July and 31 July 2010, although re-stagings due to adverse weather meant that it finally took place between 25 July and 1 August, and involved eight national teams.[2] Six teams were seeded through to the finals and two qualification rounds were held in May 2010 to determine the final two places.[3]

gollark: No, that thing is fine, but your *other* model is not being loaded onto the GPU.
gollark: https://www.sbert.net/examples/applications/semantic-search/README.html is kind of like what you want.
gollark: Instead of recomputing the embeddings every time a new sentence comes in.
gollark: The embeddings for your example sentences are the same each time you run the model, so you can just store them somewhere and run the cosine similarity thing on all of them in bulk.
gollark: Well, it doesn't look like you ever actually move the `roberta-large-mnli` model to your GPU, but I think the Sentence Transformers one is slow because you're using it wrong.
