Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

What Every Developer Should Know About GPU Computing
Sapphire Rapids is a CPU.
AMD's primary focus for a GPU software ecosystem these days seems to be implementing CUDA with s/cuda/hip, so AMD directly supports and encourages running GPU software written in CUDA on AMD GPUs.
The only implementation for sycl on AMD GPUs that I can find is a hobby project that apparently is not allowed to use either the 'hip' or 'sycl' names. https://github.com/AdaptiveCpp/AdaptiveCpp

AMD May Get Across the CUDA Moat
Not natively, but AdaptiveCpp (previously hiSycl, then OpenSycl) has a single source single compiler pass, where they basically store LLVM IR as an intermediate representation.

Performance penalty was within ew precents, at least according to the paper (figure 9 and 10)

Offloading standard C++ PSTL to Intel, NVIDIA and AMD GPUs with AdaptiveCpp
AdaptiveCpp (formerly known as hipSYCL) is an independent, open source, clang-based heterogeneous C++ compiler project. I thought some of you might be interested in knowing that we recently added support to offload standard C++ parallel STL algorithms to GPUs from all major vendors. E.g.:

AMD's HIPRT Working Its Way To Blender With ~25% Faster Rendering
In fact SYCL was initially called hipSYCL because it is based on AMD's ROCm/HIP. AMD had hipSYCL code running on the Frontier supercomputer four years ago at least and continues to support it.
-
hipSYCL can now generate a binary that runs on any Intel/NVIDIA/AMD GPU - in a single compiler pass. It is now the first single-pass SYCL compiler, and the first with unified code representation across backends.
Apple Silicon support through Metal is something that is actively discussed in hipSYCL. See https://github.com/illuhad/hipSYCL/issues/864 https://github.com/illuhad/hipSYCL/issues/460 (loooong discussion)

Bringing Nvidia® and AMD support to oneAPI
But really, the DPC++ part of oneAPI (which is many APIs) is just SYCL + extensions, and there are several other SYCL implementations which have already featured CUDA and Hip (AMD) support for a long time. The most popular and widely-used is hipSYCL, which we've been using in an HPC context on NV hardware for over 4 years now.

Intel oneAPI 2023 Released - AMD & NVIDIA Plugins Available
Unfortunately, the AMD and Nvidia plugins are proprietary. AMD users are probably better served with hipSYCL, if they somehow find an application using SYCL...
-
There is framework for everything.
Also, you might want to take a look at an implementation like hipSYCL :)

The Next Platform: "Intel Takes The SYCL To Nvidia's CUDA With Migration Tool"
Yup. SYCL is the future: https://github.com/illuhad/hipSYCL

Phoronix: "Intel's Vulkan Linux Driver Adds Experimental Mesh Shader Support For DG2/Alchemist"
ROCm is completely independent from these. It's a compute stack containing an OpenCL implementation for Radeon GPUs, plus a CUDA-like language called HIP which can be compiled to either device code for Radeon GPUs or to PTX to work with Nvidia GPUs. However, some researchers also created hipSYCL that allows SYCL to run atop HIP; you can think of it like DXVK - the program contains the DirectX/SYCL API, and DXVK/hipSYCL converts it to Vulkan/HIP (with one difference - DXVK does the conversion at runtime, while hipSYCL does it at compile time).

Should You Use Ruby on Rails or Hanami?
Industry adoption - Without including the adoption of other popular and more established frameworks like Python, React, C#, and others, if we consider the adoption of Ruby frameworks, Rails easily eclipses Hanami. The Rails homepage lists some big-name organizations using the framework. On the other hand, as the new kid on the block, Hanami is not so widely adopted. We'll have to wait and see whether that will change in the future.

Rails Core Classes Method Lookup Changes: A Deep Dive into Include vs Prepend
on April 23, 2024, a PR #51640 was merged into main branch of Ruby On Rails. This PR title is Use Module#include rather than prepend for faster method lookup.

Client side Git hooks 101
Here's a real life example: Imagine a Ruby on Rails app on which a team of developers are working. The code is hosted on GitLab and all the work is coordinated using GitLab issues. In other words: For every commit, there's an associated issue and the issue number acts as a sort of primary key for documentation, time reporting and so forth. This convention has a few advantages, most notably the ability to easily learn more about how, when and by whom features were implemented as well as how this implementation came to be.

16 Best Ruby Frameworks For Web Development [2024]
Ruby on Rails is regarded as one of the best ruby frameworks. It was the primary language in developing big projects such as Twitter and helped the language boost the community. Often referred to as “Rails,” Ruby on Rails is a web development framework with an MVC control structure and currently running its 6.1 version. The 16-year-old language has dramatically influenced the web development structures and managing databases, web pages, and other components on a web application.

More control over enum in Rails 7.1
In Rails 7.1, a new option _instance_methods is introduced, allowing developers to opt-out of the automatic generation of instance methods for enums. When enum is defined with _instance_methods: false, Rails will no longer generate methods like pending?, processed?, etc.

Ruby on Rails load testing habits
Rails isn't super opinionated about database writes, its mostly left up to developers to discover that for relational DBs you do not want to be doing a bunch of small writes all at once.
That said it specifically has tools to address this that started appearing a few years ago https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/35077
The way my team handles it is to stick Kafka in between whats generating the records (for us, a bunch of web scraping workers) and and a consumer that pulls off the Kafka queue and runs an insert when its internal buffer reaches around 50k rows.
Rails is also looking to add some more direct background type work with https://github.com/basecamp/solid_queue but this is still very new - most larger Rails shops are going to be running a second system and a gem called Sidekiq that pulls jobs out of Redis.

Continuous Deployment with GitHub Actions and Kamal
Kamal is a wonderfully simple way to deploy your applications anywhere. It will also be included by default in Rails 8. Kamal is trivial, but I don’t recommend using it on your development machine.
What are some alternatives?
