Listen "Type Erasure, SIMD-Within-a-Register and more"
Episode Synopsis
Eduardo Madrid joins Phil and Timur. Eduardo talks to us about the Zoo libraries, including his advanced type-erasure library, as well as the SWAR library which simulates ad-hoc SIMD within a register. We also discuss how he has taken inspiration and cues from the worlds of Biology and Physics to arrive at new thinking around software development, design and architecture.
