He's also currently building one of the fastest compilers around. It's unreasonable to consider that he never encountered use cases where parallelism makes sense.
- memco 6y agoIndeed, he wasn’t saying parallelism is not useful, just that the specific construct of a parallel for loop was not in his wheelhouse for certain reasons.
- mariusor 6y agoMy impression of Jon's work is that he requires low enough level access to his hardware so he's the one that makes decisions about where and what runs. Language level parallel for is definitely not that. :D
