goals for 0.2.x

[ariasanovsky]

features

• [ ] tensor fusion/multivariate functions
• [ ] impure functions (& and &mut)
• [ ] assess what to pack into kernel typestate w/ traits
  • e.g., dims, rank, crate metadata, compiler flags, thread geometry, ...
• [ ] versatile thread layout
• [ ] device ordinals for CudaSlice initialization
• [ ] fill with const
• [ ] sum/summands
• [ ] map fn w/ range entry
• [ ] refilling an existing slice
• [ ] fn __unlabel(&self) & unsafe fn __relabel(&self)
• [ ] DevSlice::new

ergonomics

• [ ] better display for spindle crates
• [ ] assess the "crate" approach
  • ?compile a kernel.c and FFI the Rust part
  • goal: target different architecture + ?migrate off of experimental ptx ABI

correctness

• [ ] ?does cudarc always 0-initialize
• [ ] use uuid better (e.g., rusqlite feature)
• [ ] feature to use rust ptx_compiler or abi_ptx for kernels

sanitation

• [ ] dump artifacts according to the appropriate environment variables
• [ ] clean out fledgling dbg! and todo! (write tests as needed)
• [ ] ?smuggle trait const to config/typestate
• [ ] ?refactor TypeDb to use embedded hash map/cache instead of SQL

misc

• [x] ?bundle smaller Issues here to avoid clutter
• [ ] refactor & test camel/snake case
• [ ] say hi 💘to the candle folks 🫂🤗 <- hugging + face emoji pun
  • [ ] improve pun skills

Not a final draft. Some things are hard to put in linear order.
