I didn't know about Theano, thanks for the hint. I have been focused on C++ libraries only, apparently missing a huge body of work. CPU is supported through OpenCL by these libraries. Remember, OpenCL code can run on CPUs. As for Aura,

There is also VexCL [0] and Boost.Compute [1]. Both are quite capable. I myself am working on something similar - it is called Aura but still a long way to go [2]. ViennaCL, VexCL and Boost.Compute focus on maximizing programmer productivit

One aspect to the "instantly hook a user" theory that I have not seen mentioned here is the following: Taking a potent drug like heroine or cocaine for the first time is described by some users as "pushing open a door to a ve

There's Crypto-Stick [0], a security USB key with many interesting features. It's essentially an OpenPGP card with some added features. What excites me about their project is a very simple file-system based interface they are planning to im

I don't see how compute a() in parallel with b() and handle mouse events concurrently (could be a()) with keyboard events (could be b()) differ and how does compute a(0), a(1), ..., a(N) in parallel differ from handle events from 1000 socke

I might be confusing things here but does concurrency, at least the definition give here, not directly map to task parallelism? Task parallelism and data parallelism are two important concepts and the tools we need to implement them are ver

Why not include functionality to connect different installations to one large, distributed database?

A similar talk was given at GTC (GPU Technology Conference), it is S3418: Porting Source to Linux: Valve's Lessons Learned. The video is available for attendees right now. Videos should be available to the general public 30 days after the c

Although I like vim for programming and config file editing, I is not the perfect solution for me for note-taking. I like more markup and a GUI with some functionality. The perfect solution for me is Tomboy[0]. It is included in many Linux

I do exactly the same thing. It works really great for me. An additional plus if you go this route is the tagging feature of tiling window managers. This allows you to have multiple views. I use for example one e-mail/web view, one developm

One often forgotten but truly fascinating character in the early days of computing is Konrad Zuse [0] who arguably built the first computer. If you are interested in computer history make sure to read his autobiography "The Computer - My Li

From my experience, a fair amount of scientific computing is done on Windows through Matlab.

I would be willing to set up a bridge but how can we get the bridge IPs to those who need them?

> long after the world has moved on to Java, C#, Python, Ruby, JavaScript, etc. I don't think this is true for everyone. In fact I believe recently we have seen a renaissance of native code. C++ is the number one language for that. Thos

You can of course implement the same functionality using either C or C++. I agree - the two implementations would be very similar. But I don't think this is the point Bjarne is trying to make. C++ challenges you to think in terms of types i

It is undocumented but you can get a fairly decent idea of what is going on if you have a good understanding of such architectures in general and from the sparse documentation they provide, if you run microbenchmarks and use tools such as d
