Just distracting / ugly to my eyes.

The goal of this work is to run existing unmodified CPU libraries (which may use core::simd) on the GPU. If you are manually writing ML-shaped workloads, it doesn't add any value o…

It's just a way for us to add minutia and details that most don't care / need to know about. There are three audiences we try to make the posts accessible for: Rust people who don'…

The goal is to use similar abstractions and code across both the CPU and GPU where it makes sense.

It is not currently available but we intend to make it available after we launch our products.

Part of our thesis is that decent GPUs are in every shipping device and most software doesn't use them and should.

The tentative plan is to open source all the compiler and `std` bits with our products built on top (compilers are not good businesses). More about our products coming in the next …

Didn't want to go into crazy detail in the post. Each family of operations is a trait parameterized by the operation itself: pub trait EvaluateReduction : LaneEvaluator { /// Reduc…

We never mention anything about superiority nor compare with other languages or programming models. This post is about making existing Rust CPU code work on the GPU.

Author here, AMA.

Oh, this again. I should put a website with this up... I was the person who personally ran 10.6 security updates at Apple (10.6.1+), the "DRI". My team in the Updates Program offic…

Quite honestly I would use cuda-oxide over rust-cuda for anything new right now....while rust-cuda is more complete, cuda-oxide is more aligned with nvidia's future direction (when…

Maintainer of rust-gpu and rust-cuda here. 1. Rust CUDA is over 5 years years old, was dead for 2(?) years, but was rebooted and works. It enables both rust on the GPU and controll…

As a Puerto Rico resident, it is not "beyond time" and you have no clue what you are talking about.

There is no reason why compiler passes cannot be in an egraph, they are more general than optimizations. When you think about it, traditional compiler concerns like instructions se…

Why do passes anymore when we have invented egraphs?

We are the maintainers of https://github.com/rust-gpu/rust-gpu and https://github.com/Rust-GPU/Rust-CUDA FWIW. We haven't upstreamed the VectorWare work yet as it is still being cl…

Agreed, and thank you.

It is not, we just haven't yet upstreamed everything.

It depends. At VecorWare are a bit of an extreme case in that we are inverting the relationship and making the GPU the main loop that calls out to the CPU sparingly. So in that mod…

Founder here. 1. Programming GPUs is a problem. The ratio of CPUs to CPU programmers and GPUs to GPU programmers is massively out of whack. Not because GPU programming is less valu…

No, it means not being able to see what is going on. Which is literally what the word blind means. You can be blinded by many things (blindfold, clouds/fog, bright lights, darkness…

One of the rust-gpu maintainers here. Haven't officially heard from anyone at AMD but we've had chats with many others. Happy to talk with whomever! I would imagine AMD is focusing…
