Apple’s machine learning framework is getting support for NVIDIA’s CUDA platform

9to5mac.com Marcus Mendes 2025-07-25 14:22:22

Apple’s MLX machine learning framework, originally designed for Apple Silicon, is getting a CUDA backend, which is a pretty big deal. Here’s why. The work is being led by developer @zcbenz on GitHub (via AppleInsider), who started prototyping CUDA support a few months ago. Since then, he split the project into smaller pieces, and gradually merged them into Apple’s MLX’s main branch. The backend is still a work in progress, but several core operations, like matrix multiplication, softmax, reduc

Easy dynamic dispatch using GLIBC Hardware Capabilities

news.ycombinator.com Christian Kastner 2025-07-22 16:45:20

TL;DR With GLIBC 2.33+, you can build a shared library multiple times targeting various optimization levels, and the dynamic linker/loader will pick the highest version supported by the current CPU. For example, with the layout below, on a Ryzen 9 5900X, x86-64-v3/libfoo0.so would be loaded: In the meantime, ggml has extended its support for its own dynamic dispatch to arm64 and ppc64el , the lack of which originally motivated this work.

While human umpires will still make the first call at the All-Star Game on July 15, Major League Baseball plans to let teams use a robot umpire to challenge rulings, ESPN reports.

Of Course ML Has Monads (2011)

A popular meme in the world of PL’s is that “Haskell has monads”, with the implication that this is a distinctive feature of the language, separate from all others. While it is true that Haskell has popularized the use of monads as a program structuring device, the idea of a monad is not so much an issue of language design (apart from the ad hoc syntactic support provided by Haskell), but rather one of library design. After all, a monad is just one of a zillion signatures (type classes) with whi
