most non-embedded and non-legacy codebases could use c23, that's not an insignificant set

these features will eventually trickle down into the mainstream, kind of like C11 is doing at the moment

also, unless you're targeting embedded or a very wide set of architectures, there's no reason why you couldn't start using C23 today

is rust cargo basically like npm at this point? like how on earth is sixteen dependencies means no dependencies lol

does this mean you can run, say, modern openCL code on smth like a VisionFive2?

really no better than a us tech firm, unless you for some reason have a preference for nationality characteristics of your hardware backdoors lol

> let us draw to the screen in CUDA without the need for OpenGL/Vulkan interop

how would that work? like GPU frameworks would just be compute (like cuda) and some small component of it would just allow to write the end result to a buffer which would be displayed or smth?

interesting decoupling method, ty :)
Re:LLama.cpp now has a web interface on Wednesday July 05, 2023 @04:29PM (#36606662)
i’m curious, what’s is the approach for maintainable and decoupled various gpu backends?
