Apologize

Sorry for your loss

Deprecated by Vulkan.
James Rodriguez
Yes.
Though I fear many people don't realise this and think vulkan is just for graphics.
Lincoln King
vulkan can be used to write a key bruteforcer? how?
Brody Hughes
Yeah no. You either use ROCm or CUDA
Elijah Parker
yes
Wyatt Ross
redpill me on Vulkan please
I'm OpenGL/OpenCL enthusiast...
Aaron Bailey
>OpenCL was initially developed by Apple
how does "hey, you should make gpgpu framework and I will name it" counts as "development"?
Nathan Rogers

>Deprecated by Vulkan.
it's not deprecated, it's merged with vulkan.
Aiden Allen
Freetard cope. You wouldn’t have Chromium if it wasn’t for Apple conceiving WebKit.

AMD tried their hand at their homegrown API called Mantle which was released with R9-290x.
It failed miserably as developers didn't sign on because Nvidia has them by the balls.
So AMD opensourced Mantle and it became Vulkan. Everything an API should be - cross platform, opensource, fast development.
Thomas Rodriguez
Vulkan is not Mantle
Mason Mitchell
>It failed miserably
It was a tremendous success, since it kickstarted this whole "low level graphics API" thing.
>So AMD opensourced Mantle and it became Vulkan
Many parts of Vulkan are taken from Mantle and other technologies, but it's not right to say that Vulkan is Mantle.
Evan Diaz
They are very very similar.
Henry Phillips
Not a problem. There's an efficient Vulkan to Metal mapper already.
Ethan Lewis
Apple just folk KDE html render engine.
Dylan Phillips
mantle at the time of its launch till it died, was the fastest uptake for an api we had ever seen.
Josiah Jackson
because amds end goal was an open standard, they got the ball rolling with mantle and handed most of the research off.
Isaac Fisher
Apple doesn't even support OpenCL 2.0/2.1 afaik. They are going on full compute based on metal
Christian Bennett
wasn't webkit a fork of KHTML from KDE?
Cooper Flores
Opencl is a poor knockoff of CUDA. Theres a reason why virtually no one uses it seriously and it had to be shoehorned into some apps because of apple throwing a shitfit after switching to AMD graphics cards
Caleb Carter
I thought it was an silicon graphics project initially. Isnt opencl is from the same roots as opengl?
