Scientific computing is not scientists doing computing. Its weather simulation, CFD, and other engineering FEA software. Lots of it has been around for decades and may even be written in Fortran.
Come to think of it, this may be targeted at scientists after all.
- bee_rider 4y agoIt says it is for "high-performance scientific computing" though. Could actually be intended for scientists who happen to be writing programs and mislabeled though. But do they typically care about manual hardware tuning, the sort that this library claims to enable?
- jltsiren 4y agoIt's common among scientists who write low-level code. Also, the author of the library we are talking about is a physicist, and the library probably exists for a reason.
