Where can I learn more about SIMD, CPU intrinsics and the like in the context of Rust?
Some other good places to look would be the source code for the ultraviolet crate and for wide.

2. Using macros for codegen, as seen in almost all other linear algebra crates, e.g. ultraviolet (https://crates.io/crates/ultraviolet)
The drawback of (1) is that it's hard to understand or extend, and the type errors are insane, and put Boost to shame. The drawback of (2) is that's just a macro. Of course (1) and (2) are not interoperable.
C++ templates are really underappreciated, because they are a single mechanism that gives you both powerful generics and macro-like codegen, while being easy to adopt gradually. (E.g. you can add concepts when it gets unwieldy, but you don't have to rewrite the whole thing.)

Fun fact: I used GA in Excalidraw, and it's still powering some of the interactions! https://github.com/excalidraw/excalidraw/blob/master/package...

Ask HN: Anyone use a code to mindmap/flowchart tool?
I was happy to find out recently that there is a way to make Mermaid diagrams WYSIWYG / drag and drop editable that the open source https://excalidraw.com has and did I mention it's open source!? With a LLM, you can go full loop back to Mermaid again after a few rounds of manual editing. "What a time to be alive!"

Ask HN: What development tools are you using for your current project?
I'm working on a personal project and found myself looking for an alternative to Postman/Insomnia this morning. This made me realize i've been using the same tools for so long for work (mobile development, finance) that this project may be a good time to try out some new things.
Here are a few tools that i've been using lately that I really enjoy:
https://pocketbase.io/ - A dead-simple self-hosted firebase/supabase-like "backend in a box" using golang and sqlite. So far i've been really impressed. I've gone the route of extending the base offering with more go code and am really enjoying the experience.
https://excalidraw.com/ - An open source whiteboarding tool. Slick to use and after learning some keybinds I've gotten pretty fast at throwing together diagrams to explain things to people on my team. The killer piece though is that the filetype is just json, so I can source control my diagrams. Even better, their "export to png" function has a box to embed the json data _into_ the png, allowing me to slap the diagram in places that only accept images (think confluence) and still be able to change the diagram later if needed. 10/10.
https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/ci/ - Gitlab's CI/CD toolset is really impressive, and I've gotten really intimate with it's deeper features over the past year. I'd be curious though to hear from someone who's familiar with it vs it's competitors.
