You'd need first to convert it to portable SIMD intrinsics. There are several libraries.
Apparently it also needs Clang to achieve the same performance: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40875968

Very nice write up. Those are the kind of matrix sizes that MKL is fairly good at, might be worth a comparison as well?
Also, if you were designing for smaller cases, say MNK=16 or 32, how would you approach it differently? I'm implementing neural ODEs and this is one point I've been considering.
Don't forget BLIS itself!

I think it’s okay to say “This is the benchmark, now I’m going to compare it against something else.” It’s up to the reader to decide if a 3% (or 300%) improvement is worth the investment if it involves learning a whole other language.
It's a muddy comparison given that NumPy is commonly used with other BLAS implementations, which the author even lists, but doesn't properly address. Anaconda defaults to Intel oneAPI MKL, for example, and that's a widely used distribution. Not that I think MKL would do great on AMD hardware, BLIS is probably a better alternative.
The author also says "(...) implementation follows the BLIS design", but then proceeds to compare *only* with OpenBLAS. I'd love to see a more thorough analysis, and using C directly would make it easier to compare multiple BLAS libs.

What do you mean by "for anything serious it isn't open source"? I didn't see any red flags in the apache variant of timescale, just constant pleading to try their hosted option.

Ooh, seems there is a new syntax for declaring the types of kwargs [1]:
from typing import TypedDict, Unpack
class Movie(TypedDict):
name: str
year: int
def foo(*kwargs: Unpack[Movie]): ...
1. https://docs.python.org/3.12/whatsnew/3.12.html#pep-692-usin...
Some packages already use those. For previous Python versions, those are available in typing_extensions: https://typing-extensions.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

FF unfortunately does not support detecting the OS reliably...
"Linux x86_64" is present on my UA on Linux, and "Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64" on Windows. Probably a bug or just untested on Firefox. Just a bit annoying.
I'll add that this is the first site that misdetects anything like that.
