Someone ported Karpathy's microGPT to pure #julialang in 99 lines with 0 dependencies, it's 1600x faster than CPython... hard to emphasize enough how impressive this is www.reddit.com/r/Julia/s/Vg...

From the Julia community on Reddit: I ported Karpathy's microgpt to Julia in 99 lines - no dependencies, manual backprop, ~1600× faster than CPython and ~4x faster than Rust.

This Blogpost covers some of the reasons my lab switched to #julialang Many are left out, e.g. we simply call any python library/function we don't have in Julia, from Julia! (e.g..mne, scopy etc.). Native GPU made easy. Extending other libraries without editing them etc slicker.me/julia/julia_...

Omg! The official JuliaCon account posted about my talk! 😱 Shout-out to @thecedarprince.bsky.social for organising the JuliaHealth mini-symposium and totally carrying it by giving 4 talks!!! The slides for the talk are available here: github.com/cncastillo/K...

Lee Phillips @lpfeed arstechnica.com/science/2014... Classical #physics is an active research area, is fundamental, and is still full of interesting and even controversial problems. Does your physics professor understand how airplanes fly? Good chance the answer is “no”.

The never-ending conundrums of classical physics

Even today, scientists still try to solve sprinkler brain teasers from the 19th century.

JuliaCall is blowing my mind 🤯, running GPU-accelerated #JuliaLang code from Python was insanely easy!

Big fan of the Journal of Open Source Software! It's awesome that the whole review process occurs publicly on GitHub 😊

JOSS has now published more than 3,000 articles, and I've personally edited 60 of them (still editing +5). Being a part of JOSS has been one of the most fulfilling experiences of my life. @joss-openjournals.bsky.social #JOSS

How to make #autodiff user-friendly? What lies beyond the safety of Python-world? Why does it matter for scientific machine learning? All this, and more, in our latest preprint with @adrhill.bsky.social! Spoiler alert: it describes the most useful software I ever wrote. arxiv.org/abs/2505.05542

Wanna learn about autodiff and sparsity? Check out our #ICLR2025 blog post with @adrhill.bsky.social and Alexis Montoison. It has everything you need: matrices with lots of zeros, weird compiler tricks, graph coloring techniques, and a bunch of pretty pics! iclr-blogposts.github.io/2025/blog/sp...

My MRI simulation paper was among the top 10% most read in Magnetic Resonance in Medicine 🤩! #JuliaLang

“New horizons for Julia”: lwn.net/Articles/100... My article about #julialang 1.11 and new directions for the language. I talk about new tooling for installation, compilation to small binaries, Julia in browsers, and more. #science #programming

My first impressions of #Stanford: Wow! What a lovely campus. I’m not sure if this could even be considered winter. Pretty excited 😊!

The countdown is on: Just 3 days left to submit your proposal for JuliaCon 2025! The Call for Proposals closes on January 31st, 2025, at 23:59 EST. Submit your proposal today:https://pretalx.com/juliacon-2025/cfp #JuliaCon2025 #CallForProposals #JuliaLang

Hi folks! Our first JuliaHealth meeting of the year is taking place this Wednesday 12 - 2PM EST! We will be reflecting on last year, the coming year, and planning for @juliacon.bsky.social! Come with your thoughts and give the agenda a look! Hope to see you there! #julialang #medsky #academicsky

[Workgroup] JuliaHealth Meeting (Americas/Europe/Africa) -- January 29th, 2024

Hi Everyone! 👋 It is a new year and it is time to have our first JuliaHealth monthly meeting! This month’s meeting will be a little different: we are running for 2 hours to reflect on this past year, ...

Just gave a two-day #JuiaLang workshop, and the fastest and the most improved code (after some performance tips) won a mug. People can get really competitive when you put a leaderboard on screen😜.

Excited to say that for the first time ever, JuliaHealth will be hosting a mini-Symposium at @juliacon.bsky.social 2025! More details to come but we are looking forward to hearing from YOU! Excited to hear submissions about talks, demos, and tutorials! 🧪 🛟🩺 #medsky #julialang

Hey folks, we have a final request for comments for our JuliaHealth Mini-Symposium draft submission! 🧪 🛟🩺 Have any final thoughts? Click on the link to learn more! We will be submitting December 1st! Let's bring #julialang to health research, together! #medsky #AcademicTwitter #publicHealth

Wow! KomaMRI.jl was mentioned in a talk at MRI Together by Charles McGrath, where he discussed CMRsim, another fantastic open-source MRI simulator! Could this be the publicity we need to cross 1k downloads? (Currently at 993🙉) github.com/JuliaHealth/... #JuliaLang #MRI #OpenSource

Nothing better than replicating previous results but 200x faster using #JuliaLang 😎 Columns: 1987, 2018, 2024 (ours)
