I want a good parallel computer

1. vello

   1 37 2,712 9.4 Rust

   A GPU compute-centric 2D renderer.

   

   This essay needs more work.

   Are you arguing for a better software abstraction, a different hardware abstraction or both? Lots of esoteric machines are name dropped, but it isn't clear how that helps your argument.

   Why not link to Vello? https://github.com/linebender/vello

   I think a stronger essay would at the end give the reader a clear view of what Good means and how to decide if a machine is closer to Good than another machine and why.

   SIMD machines can be turned into MIMD machines. Even hardware problems still need a software solution. The hardware is there to offer the right affordances for the kinds of software you want to write.

   Lots of words that are in the eye of beholder. We need a checklist or that Good parallel computer won't be built.

3. scryer-prolog

   2 61 2,193 9.4 Rust

   A modern Prolog implementation written mostly in Rust.

   

   You probably already know about https://github.com/mthom/scryer-prolog are you saying we should accelerate scryer-prolog with a Grayskull board?

4. jax

   3 89 31,945 10.0 Python

   Composable transformations of Python+NumPy programs: differentiate, vectorize, JIT to GPU/TPU, and more

   

5. ProtonVM

   4 1 11 - C++

   Parallel Bytecode Interpreter For Heterogeneous Hardware

   

   I agree.

   Many things in software are in the "you're doing it wrong" but that wrong way is subjective and arbitrary.

   > maybe using warp-wide semantics to implement something like a "software" microcode engine.
