It's been a thrill to host Dr Chris Rackauckas for a 2-day visit to our node at QUT. Chris presented a seminar, ran a workshop on High-Performance Scientific Modelling with Julia & SciML, & met with our researchers. Chris is VP of Modelling and Simulation at JuliaHub. @chrisrackauckas.bsky.social

Well no one responded to libflame issues for 4 years and haven't tagged in 6. So at what point do you stop waiting and just say welp, here are the results. I thought 4 years was enough. It's on EPYC which isn't in their set I think? At least on that CPU it's not good.
