Hi Zak, this question is a little out of your scope, but perhaps you may know the answer: Do you know if/when Colab TPU runtimes are likely to be updated to support newer JAX functionality like pjit? (Or put another way: are Colab and Cloud TPU runtimes expected to be in-sync at all?) I'd written some model code that worked great on a TPU-VM and that I was excited to share on Colabs (which is likely far more accessible), but then I found out that Colabs simply don't support pjit (https://github.com/google/jax/issues/8300).

Other than that, really like TRC!

We love Colab and would love to upgrade the Colab TPU integration to support TPU VMs! No timeframe yet, but the right folks across JAX / Colab / Cloud TPU are very aware of this issue.
