Jfire

Yeah, I've been looking for some higher level way of taking advantage of GPUs. Pascal Jasmin wrote a doodad for J talking to Arrayfire, but I never got it to work properly. https://github.com/Pascal-J/Jfire Lush: it just felt comfy for a data science workflow. No DB adapters, or even real csv readers, but you could do whatever you needed in the interpreted language and go pretty fast with the compiled bits. Still feels like the future.

how about: https://github.com/Pascal-J/Jfire

Kerf's doing well: we're adding a sort of NoSQL functionality which is pretty unique (unstructured data you can index and join on). Closer to K than J, but really pretty different from both, beyond the Array language heritage. I had considered building a distributed processing system using J and zeroMQ, but now considering doing something like this with Kerf. Main thing is ... do the customers want it. I can't pay rent with technological innovation. FWIIW, Pascal has something you might be interested in for GPUing in J, if you are not aware of it; jarrayfire. https://github.com/Pascal-J/Jfire I haven't screwed around with it, but I keep meaning to get around to it. Looks solid. I made an abortive attempt to do something cheaper (cuda hooks basically), but got distracted.
