For personal reasons, I no longer feel safe working on Linux GPU drivers or the Linux graphics ecosystem. I’ve paused work on Apple GPU drivers indefinitely.

I can’t share any more information at this time, so please don’t ask for more details. Thank you.

If you think you know what happened or the context, you probably don’t. Please don’t make assumptions. Thank you.

I’m safe physically, but I’ll be taking some time off in general to focus on my health.

Well that’s sudden.

    It’s more like I’ve seen the same wheel invented a lot of times and can recognize most tech are basically equally functional.

    So… I would recommend at least reading the Wikipedia page for Rust because it’s pretty clear that you don’t know anything about it at all if you think it is “the same wheel”. Rust is the first practical memory safe systems language that doesn’t rely on GC for memory safety.

      I am happy that you like rust.

      I also would like to point out there are many ways to manage memory. Not all of them are badly designed and hacked code done by stubborn people who just need to be saved
