Thanks, I remember it used to cost money but I couldn't remember if it still did.

- gaius 8y agoI guess NVidia figure they can make more selling cards than charging for the library !
- mkl 8y agoNumba is not made by NVidia. It is [1] made by Anaconda (formerly Continuum Analytics), which was co-founded by Travis Oliphant, the primary author of NumPy. [1] (primarily - it's open source)
- gaius 8y agoRight, but the NVidia drivers are free for it now, whereas they didn’t used to be according to the OP.
- gh02t 8y agoThey aren't drivers, it's just the ability to generate CUDA kernels in Numba. It has nothing to do with Nvidia supporting it, they were not involved AFAIK.
- gaius 8y agoInteresting, thanks :-) either way, we’re all set to accelerate Python code on the GPU! Personally I intend to focus my efforts here rather than learning Julia.
