   I tried to do something similar with 'first-class' dimension objects in PyTorch https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/blob/main/functorch/dim/R... . For instance multi-head attention lo

   When developing PyTorch, we also run into a lot of mixed Python/C++ language situations. We've recently been experimenting with in-process 'combined' Python/C++/PyTorch 2.0 stack traces to make it easier to und

   One of our design goals was to make sure terra could execute independently of Lua. So everything that you describe is possible. For instance our simple hello world program ( https://github.com/zdevito/terra/blob/master/tests/hello.t ) compi

   Yes! One of the benefits of making sure that Terra code can execute independly of Lua is that you can use multi-threading libraries pretty much out-of-the box. For instance, we have an example that launches some threads using pthreads ( htt

   Author here. You're right that we designed Terra primarily to be an enviornment for generate low-level code. In particular, we want to be able to easily design and prototype DSLs and auto-tuners for high-performance programming applications
