Someone ported Karpathy's microGPT to pure #julialang in 99 lines with 0 dependencies, it's 1600x faster than CPython... hard to emphasize enough how impressive this is www.reddit.com/r/Julia/s/Vg...

From the Julia community on Reddit: I ported Karpathy's microgpt to Julia in 99 lines - no dependencies, manual backprop, ~1600× faster than CPython and ~4x faster than Rust.

This Blogpost covers some of the reasons my lab switched to #julialang Many are left out, e.g. we simply call any python library/function we don't have in Julia, from Julia! (e.g..mne, scopy etc.). Native GPU made easy. Extending other libraries without editing them etc slicker.me/julia/julia_...

Omg! The official JuliaCon account posted about my talk! 😱 Shout-out to @thecedarprince.bsky.social for organising the JuliaHealth mini-symposium and totally carrying it by giving 4 talks!!! The slides for the talk are available here: github.com/cncastillo/K...

Lee Phillips @lpfeed arstechnica.com/science/2014... Classical #physics is an active research area, is fundamental, and is still full of interesting and even controversial problems. Does your physics professor understand how airplanes fly? Good chance the answer is “no”.

The never-ending conundrums of classical physics

Even today, scientists still try to solve sprinkler brain teasers from the 19th century.

JuliaCall is blowing my mind 🤯, running GPU-accelerated #JuliaLang code from Python was insanely easy!

Big fan of the Journal of Open Source Software! It's awesome that the whole review process occurs publicly on GitHub 😊

How to make #autodiff user-friendly? What lies beyond the safety of Python-world? Why does it matter for scientific machine learning? All this, and more, in our latest preprint with @adrhill.bsky.social! Spoiler alert: it describes the most useful software I ever wrote. arxiv.org/abs/2505.05542

A comparison of automatic differentiation paradigms between Python and Julia:
- In Python, one chooses the autodiff framework first (PyTorch / JAX), then the appropriate scientific library
- In Julia, one writes the scientific library first, then one tries to make it compatible with several autodiff frameworks (Enzyme, Zygote, etc)

Wanna learn about autodiff and sparsity? Check out our #ICLR2025 blog post with @adrhill.bsky.social and Alexis Montoison. It has everything you need: matrices with lots of zeros, weird compiler tricks, graph coloring techniques, and a bunch of pretty pics! iclr-blogposts.github.io/2025/blog/sp...

A visualization of compressed column evaluation in sparse autodiff. Here, columns 1, 2 and 5 of the matrix (in yellow) have no overlap in their sparsity patterns. Thus, they can be evaluated together by multiplication with a sum of basis vectors (in purple).

Just gave a two-day #JuiaLang workshop, and the fastest and the most improved code (after some performance tips) won a mug. People can get really competitive when you put a leaderboard on screen😜.

Wow! KomaMRI.jl was mentioned in a talk at MRI Together by Charles McGrath, where he discussed CMRsim, another fantastic open-source MRI simulator! Could this be the publicity we need to cross 1k downloads? (Currently at 993🙉) github.com/JuliaHealth/... #JuliaLang #MRI #OpenSource

Nothing better than replicating previous results but 200x faster using #JuliaLang 😎 Columns: 1987, 2018, 2024 (ours)
