It's been a while since I heard about Crystal. What's the state of Windows support. How did the compiler speed drama unfold?

They'll look elsewhere on the dime of the company or for equity as compensation for increased risk. Might as well cut them off instead of pretending.

Ah, It was from an older implementation that wasn't compatible with Nim v2. I've commented it out. If you pull again it should work. > Anyway the reason for your competitive performance is likely that you are benchmarking with

First we can use Laser, which was my initial BLAS experiment in 2019. At the time in particular, OpenBLAS didn't properly use the AVX512 VPUs. (See thread in BLIS https://github.com/flame/blis/issues/352

The default is ARC, no cycle detection. ARC is deterministic. ORC isn't, but doing cycles in general is usually a code smell, especially on embedded. Also the GC is type-bound and only needed if you use ref objects. If you don't,

The coloring of go functions is actually seen in the FFI. Go functions have a special calling convention so FFI is annoying. This is similar to Cilk back in 1995 with their continuation-stealing work-stealing scheduler. The C++ committee ma

After saying that it's a dynamic general-purpose, actor language, the introduction talks about spacing style, comment style, naming and purity. That's very lackluster. Show me a Fizzbuzz or an advent of code. Tell me a story of wh

Convolutions and Discrete Cosine Transforms and many matrix operations (rotations, shifts) depends on operations around and ARE parallelizable. It's the non-linear-algebra stuff that is usually problematic.
