Published a JuliaHealth proceedings paper: "Bringing Julia to Health: A Concise Overview of JuliaHealth"! π
As the ecosystem continues to grow, I am excited to have this as a community reference and overview. π
Would love your thoughts! π€
Catch us @juliacon.org!

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

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

#Julialang Dispatch: we welcome Jacob Zelko, who takes us on a fascinating journey from his early days as a #biomedical engineering student through his work at the CDC during the COVID-19 pandemic, and into his current exploration of applied #categorytheory.

Oh just saw this, thanks for the kind words! π
Omg! The official JuliaCon account posted about my talk! π± 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...

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 βnoβ.
I think it would be very nice if this supported monorepo's, where there are many packages in the same repo. It is a huge pain to identify which package to update and in which order. I am sure people from SciML would be very happy. Maybe @chrisrackauckas.bsky.social has ideas.
JuliaCall is blowing my mind π€―, 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 π
A comparison of automatic differentiation paradigms between Python and Julia: - In Python, one chooses the autodiff framework first (PyTorch / JAX), then the appropriate scientific library - In Julia, one writes the scientific library first, then one tries to make it compatible with several autodiff frameworks (Enzyme, Zygote, etc)
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.

A visualization of compressed column evaluation in sparse autodiff. Here, columns 1, 2 and 5 of the matrix (in yellow) have no overlap in their sparsity patterns. Thus, they can be evaluated together by multiplication with a sum of basis vectors (in purple).
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!

My MRI simulation paper was among the top 10% most read in Magnetic Resonance in Medicine π€©! #JuliaLang
βNew horizons for Juliaβ:

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.

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

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!

I haven't seen that one! Niiice!! Pretty much the same analogy haha
I also made this drawing to explain multiple dispatch #JuliaLang π
The materials for the workshop (some based on the incredible work by Carsten Bauer) and videos (in Spanish) will be uploaded here:

This was all done automatically generated when they created a PR to this repo with their code

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 screenπ.
Maybe not highly accurate, but I like this image. There's also a giftedness corner, that increases masking abilities. In that case people can be twice (2e: gifted+autism) or thrice (3e:gifted+autism+adhd) exceptional :), any convex combination in that space really.
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! π§ͺ ππ©Ί
#medsky #julialang
Woow! Amazing thanks!! π
Pretty cool! I think it should skip typing "julia>", "pkg>", and "help>". Are you planning to support syntax highlight?
