Re^5: Perl in data science: could a grant from Perl foundation be useful?

I think https://chrisarg.github.io/Killing-It-with-PERL/2024/07/07/The-Quest-For-Performance-Part-II-PerlVsPython.md.html et al make a powerful argument that Perl (especially with PDL) can be a powerful, and high-performance, adjunct to other programming languages or tools in data science, and other science.

I created complementary demonstrations for the article on the web, running on the CPU or GPU.

@AmesingFlank tried Taichi on Javascript targeting WebGPU. The Javascript demonstrations work well in Google Chrome. It requires the following arguments. Doing so will cause Chrome to emit a message, "You are using an unsupported command-line flag: --enable-unsafe-webgpu. Stability and security will suffer." `--enable-unsafe-webgpu --enable-features=Vulkan` [download] Enabling WebGPU on Linux: I enable WebGPU in Chrome DEV, and it still doesn't work	[reply] [d/l]
