I usually am proud of being a Brazilian but today I'm devastated in knowing that this the country I'm part of. This is the highest voted representative of my state. Whose first proposal is banning trans women from the women's bathroom. I don't know how to deal with knowing this is who lives here.

Pamphlet describing the proposals of the most voted candidate in São Paulo. The first proposal is banning trans women from the female bathroom.

Then maybe Left Hand of Darkness is your cup of tea. It has some queer themes (I also enjoy that her books use the word queer as meaning different and that has gotten me confused sometimes)

Boring answer but anything by Ursula Le Guin if you haven' read her books. (Not particularly new for most of them) and I imagine you've read most of them

I have been more or less silent on the dumpster fire formerly known as Twitter, and even though the algorithm will prevent anyone from seeing it, I felt this needed to be said...

A tweet -- or whatever a tweet is called now -- saying that anti-trans locales will never displace Silicon Valley

Congrats, you've joined the time honored do random thing but get interested in compilers to become compiler person pipeline.

It's gonna be worth it. I will be able to buy a mi355x rack for 2k dollars soon

I don’t love them, but they are soooo practical specially for beans

Not sure what kind of beans you get locally, but here we almost always cook them with a pressure cooker and it's quite possible, even easy to over cook them. They start breaking apart a lot, though if you blend those you get a nice soup.

On larger matrices it does quite well on an apple laptop ``` julia> A = rand(1000,1000); B = rand(1000,1000); julia> @btime $A * $B; 7.033 ms (3 allocations: 7.64 MiB) julia> using BLISBLAS julia> @btime $A * $B; 5.211 ms (3 allocations: 7.64 MiB) ``` Though the problem size is different

I think we are building/using it wrong, because their own results show very different results github.com/flame/blis/b...

Need your #code to be faster but don’t want to use Fortran or C? Learn #Julia, the modern language for #HPC, with a high-quality book. Here are some options: lee-phillips.org/amazonJuliaB... #julialang - its speed and friendly syntax is taking it beyond #science into #finance and other areas.

Hello Friends! I'm on the job market now! I have a oodles of knowledge for all the software performance engineering tricks in Rust, Julia and other systems languages and would love to work with teams that are looking to skill up in those respects, from back ends to big data crunching!

Somehow Hanlon's razor (Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity), doesn't apply to him, he managed to rise above it an be stupid and evil

😅I’m not even an Academic. But yeah it could’ve been worded better, there are much better answers than mine in that thread

We ship OpenBLAS, but LBT allows us to change blases (blasi?) at runtime which is really convenient for benchmarking

While most people seem to be researching the behavior of LLMs I do enjoy that some people still have the time for real subjects like LMM

JuliaHub is hiring for the Compiler and Runtime team. You get to work on Julia itself, which is really cool by itself, and by doing that you support folks doing amazing work in science and industry. juliahub.com/company/jobs...

My study subject for the next while, the first edition was super useful for me to do GC work in Julia. Let's see if the second edition doesn't get us a fully concurrent one
