  • rvc

    A 32-bit RISC-V emulator in a shader (and C)

  • Someone did run Linux in a pixel shader on VRChat.

  • Co-dfns

    High-performance, Reliable, and Parallel APL

  • This always seemed like a very interesting project; we need to get to the point where, if things can run in parallel, they must run in parallel to make software more efficient on modern cpu/gpu.

    It won't attract funds, I guess, but it would be far more trivial to make this work with an APL or a Lisp/Scheme. There already is great research for APL[0] and looking at the syntax of HVM-core it seems it is rather easy to knock up a CL DSL. If only there were more hours in a day.
