I’m a bit out of my area on the details: but I have CUDA kernels in PyTorch and I’ve moved around much, much bigger codebases. I write kernels and build others.

I’m a bit out of my area on the details: but I have CUDA kernels in PyTorch and I’ve moved around much, much bigger codebases. I write kernels and build others. I don’t doubt that it’s a lot of work to maintain a clean userland and present a good interface with clean link ABIs. The people who pull it off and make it look easy are called names like Linus. But the “everything is buggy” argument is an argument about institutions, not software artifacts. We know how to throw test and fuzz on a component and bang it into shape. Now this is a question of both resources and intention. But NVIDIA’s market cap is like 4 trillion bucks or something. I want perfect or a firing squad at that number.
