Marie-Madeleine's testimony: a path to light
Marie-Madeleine occupies a unique place in biblical history as a privileged witness to the resurrection of Jesus. Her journey, of a woman delivered from seven demons to the first messenger of the resurrection, perfectly illustrates the transformativ...

Khronos' OpenCL Working Group has issued a Request for Proposal (#RFP) for OpenCL LLVM SPIR-V Backend. The goal of this project is to address and integrate specific functionalities that are currently available in the translator project but missing from the backend. All bids are due December 6, 2024.

Once @microsoft 's Shader Model 7 is released, #DirectX 12 will accept shaders compiled to SPIR-V. Microsoft is working with the Khronos #SPIR and #Vulkan Working Groups to ensure that this transition benefits the whole development ecosystem.

chipStar 1.1 released: It's a tool for compiling and running HIP/CUDA on SPIR-V via OpenCL or Level Zero APIs. This release cycle focused on stabilization and performance improvements over the 1.0 release. The release was measured to run some benchmarks up to twice as fast as 1.0, with an average improvement of 30% measured on HeCBench.

#rocketlab is launching its 39th Electron into space in T-2 hours!
They are launching 7 satellites for NASA, SFL and SPIRE!

Next #rocketlab launch is planned NET 14 July.
The booster will be recovered via ocean recovery.
The upcoming launch will be a rideshare launch, the first rideshare mission in over a year!
The mission will carry several payloads for NASA, SFL and Spire.
The Electron launching the #BabyComeBack mission has a couple of upgrades to improve re-usability!

I should mention that this isn't just a matter of the dominant player intentionally boycotting standards that would make them lose the vendor lock-in advantage (hello #NVIDIA). All major vendors are guilty of this one way or the other. For example, #AMD unjustifiably pulled (or maybe failed to add) #SPIR and #CPU support from their new #OpenCL implementation. #Intel's #oneAPI (even while still leveraging the OpenCL backend) effectively failed on any other OpenCL platform.

It's "spear vee"
Mike Houston proposed the original SPIR at the January 2011 Khronos F2F. He gave it the name, expanded the acronym *and* was explicit about the pronunciation as "spear".
SPIR-V came later. Khronos has always pronounced it "spear vee"
That said, language is a living thing, so use what you like.
It works also for WSL2 and Ubuntu. We can run #TornadoVM using both the #OpenCL and the #SPIR-V (and #LevelZero) backends.
Here's an example of running a Java program that computes matrix multiplication using the SPIR-V and Level Zero Backend. Looking really good!
