@Migueldeicaza I’d have settled for C11 when I was hacking on XNU…
I posted a write up of the state of HLSL in 2026:
https://www.abolishcrlf.org/2026/02/10/HLSLState.html
There’s some cool stuff going on between the work in Clang and our new effort to standardize HLSL.
Look, I’m all for spending time doing code reviews as a way of mentoring engineers so they learn how to write better code, but it makes me really frustrated when I’m instead spending hours of my time teaching them how to write better copilot prompts.
@anteru @xoofx @aras @dneto @thekhronosgroup SPIRV is by far the friendliest compilation target for GPUs today. I love me some LLVM, but All the LLVM-based GPU interchange formats are a lot more difficult to work with.
@neilhenning @dneto @xoofx Neil should come work on HLSL so that he’ll be back in the Khronos meetings and will get to see David more often… right??
I swear this isn’t a ploy so I get to go drinking with Neil occasionally…
@artagnon @regehr calling GlobalIsel a failure is a bit of a🔥take.
GlobalIsel is extremely useful for uses like JITs where compile time is extremely important. It is comparable to FastIsel both in terms of speed and output quality. It also has massive benefits for maintainability over both SDIsel and FastISel.
