A long-delayed post about importing the standard library in C using the latest CMake 3.30 release and a recent Clang 18.1.8 toolchain. It works (mostly) and continues to improve! I linked to a few accompanying commits where you can see the details too cryos.net/2024/10/cmake-and-…

One year at a startup already! Hard to believe, a quick post reflecting on my journey and what I enjoy about startup life. Really an opportunity to take stock as this was quite a shift in career for me cryos.net/2024/07/one-year-a…

Despite the cold spell the passion flower has bloomed! Got a hanging basket from our neighbor's farm, it did really well a few years back.

Lena and I started working on this project almost 10 years ago, with @ktspoth and then Yue taking data. Lena passed away before she could finish the paper, even as other groups were finding it very useful. With Yue and friends we finally finished it!* biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

GTC was crazy, great to be back in person, very different to the GTC events of the past

10 years of "it can't be done..." 7 @nvidia GPU architectures... 5 years of @RAPIDSai... 3 years of @VoltronData... finally a petabyte-scale GPU-native engine that DOESN'T require you to change your data pipelines. Same code, same data formats, just modular, interoperable, composable, extensible... and of course ACCELERATED! Theseus is the Scalable Performant And Compute Efficient engine🔥🔥🔥 Check out our benchmarks and new webpage... and reach out if you're struggling with queries above 30TBs. voltrondata.com/benchmarks

I will be at GTC next week, can't wait for it!
Next week @VoltronData will be at @NVIDIA #GTC24 along with partners @LambdaAPI & @HPE bringing serious news for our engine, Theseus, directly to you 🔥🔥🔥. I haven’t been this hyped since launching @RAPIDSai. Reach out to meet with me or my team to connect!

We are hiring for a Staff Build Engineer role. Do you have experience with C , CMake, compilers, CI, software development processes, open source and working with dependencies. Do you think this is you, or know someone who might be a good fit? boards.greenhouse.io/voltron…

That’s it folks 🔥🔥🔥 Why @IbisData is epic! Plus works with distributed backends like @ApacheSpark @trinodb, GPU backends like @RAPIDSai #cuDF and @VoltronData Theseus, and streaming backend like @ApacheFlink and @RisingWaveLabs!

A bit of a tangent on the importance (in my opinion) or toy projects, pointers to past posts on C , CMake, C modules, packaging, C with a columnar database and some hints at areas I hope to find time to dig into more in the future plus Lego! cryos.net/2024/02/toy-projec…

First baby steps looking at using DuckDB in a simple C application. It looks cool and I am certain that I am missing the best path. Still I got an in memory database linking to the library and making a few calls, and it looks easy to deploy cryos.net/2024/02/duckdb-and…

Taking a look at C module support in CMake and Clang on Arch Linux. Follow along as I make my first module and do the obligatory "ello" world. Also tiniest fragments of CMake to set up a project that creates a module cryos.net/2024/01/c-modules-…
