Trace Me a River: Computing stuff on GPU using Rust
GPUs are mystery machines best known for their abilities to generate pretty images pretty fast - but nowadays GPUs are much, much more than just image rasterizers. In this talk we're going to uncover what makes GPUs different from CPUs and how you can program them in Rust! No particular prior knowledge required.
About the speaker - Patryk Wychowaniec
Patryk finds joy in throwing algorithms at problems and observing what happens - from neural networks to graphics, always looking for that certain « je ne sais quoi ».
He's a strong advocate for Rust & Nix - currently working at Anixe, coding Rust for the tourism industry during the day, and doing open source all over the night, all over the place.
