All these skeptics and nobody just tried it out?
I will later. From what I can tell it looks nice. I like the syntax. I don’t know of the claims but willing to give it a shot.
The GPU story would it work on my Mac or is it not GPU agnostic?

  Welcome to HN!
  May I remind you of the Dropbox comment? <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9224">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9224

    Classic. That comment should be in a museum.

    Without debating the general topic, I think it's important <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27068148">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27068148 be shared any time the above is.
    That's not to say the comment is perfect or something, but many of the parts people like to dunk on most in it are just misunderstandings, like problems with the "app" being a replies to the YC application info rather than unsolicited notes about the program itself.
