  • ArrayFire

    ArrayFire: a general purpose GPU library.

    Project mention: Learn WebGPU | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-04-27

    Loads of people have stated why easy GPU interfaces are difficult to create, but we solve many difficult things all the time.

    Ultimately I think CPUs are just satisfactory for the vast vast majority of workloads. Servers rarely come with any GPUs to speak of. The ecosystem around GPUs is unattractive. CPUs have SIMD instructions that can help. There are so many reasons not to use GPUs. By the time anyone seriously considers using GPUs they're, in my imagination, typically seriously starved for performance, and looking to control as much of the execution details as possible. GPU programmers don't want an automagic solution.

    So I think the demand for easy GPU interfaces is just very weak, and therefore no effort has taken off. The amount of work needed to make it as easy to use as CPUs is massive, and the only reason anyone would even attempt to take this on is to lock you in to expensive hardware (see CUDA).

    For a practical suggestion, have you taken a look at https://arrayfire.com/ ? It can run on both CUDA and OpenCL, and it has C++, Rust and Python bindings.

  • harfbuzz

    HarfBuzz text shaping engine

    Project mention: Libsodium: A modern, portable, easy to use crypto library | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-09-14

    For C/C++ projects that use meson as the build system, there is an excellent way to manage dependencies:

    https://mesonbuild.com/Wrapdb-projects.html

    https://mesonbuild.com/Wrap-dependency-system-manual.html

    meson will download and build the libraries automatically and give you a variable which you pass as a regular dependency into the built target:

    https://github.com/qemu/qemu/tree/005ad32358f12fe9313a4a0191...

    https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/tree/main/subprojects

    https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/blob/37457412b3212463c5...

    Or, if you're using proper operating systems, they're managed by the usual package manager, just like everything else.
