- Reposted by Carlos Castillo PassiThis Blogpost covers some of the reasons my lab switched to #julialang Many are left out, e.g. we simply call any python library/function we don't have in Julia, from Julia! (e.g..mne, scopy etc.). Native GPU made easy. Extending other libraries without editing them etc slicker.me/julia/julia_...
- Reposted by Carlos Castillo PassiThe #JuliaCon Global 2026 call for proposals is open! We have a host of exciting minisymposia and we look forward to your talks! Find more information on juliacon.org/2026/cfp/ and submit your proposal until February 28th at pretalx.com/juliacon-202... #julia @julialang.org
- If you are working with #JuliaLang in health, medicine, or biomedical research, consider submitting an abstract to the 🩺 Health Mini-Symposium at JuliaCon 2026 (10–15 August 2026, Mainz, Germany). @thecedarprince.bsky.social

- Omg! The official JuliaCon account posted about my talk! 😱 Shout-out to @thecedarprince.bsky.social for organising the JuliaHealth mini-symposium and totally carrying it by giving 4 talks!!! The slides for the talk are available here: github.com/cncastillo/K...
- Reposted by Carlos Castillo PassiLee Phillips @lpfeed arstechnica.com/science/2014... Classical #physics is an active research area, is fundamental, and is still full of interesting and even controversial problems. Does your physics professor understand how airplanes fly? Good chance the answer is “no”.
- JuliaCall is blowing my mind 🤯, running GPU-accelerated #JuliaLang code from Python was insanely easy!
- Big fan of the Journal of Open Source Software! It's awesome that the whole review process occurs publicly on GitHub 😊
- JOSS has now published more than 3,000 articles, and I've personally edited 60 of them (still editing +5). Being a part of JOSS has been one of the most fulfilling experiences of my life. @joss-openjournals.bsky.social #JOSS
- Reposted by Carlos Castillo PassiHow to make #autodiff user-friendly? What lies beyond the safety of Python-world? Why does it matter for scientific machine learning? All this, and more, in our latest preprint with @adrhill.bsky.social! Spoiler alert: it describes the most useful software I ever wrote. arxiv.org/abs/2505.05542
- Reposted by Carlos Castillo PassiWanna learn about autodiff and sparsity? Check out our #ICLR2025 blog post with @adrhill.bsky.social and Alexis Montoison. It has everything you need: matrices with lots of zeros, weird compiler tricks, graph coloring techniques, and a bunch of pretty pics! iclr-blogposts.github.io/2025/blog/sp...
- My MRI simulation paper was among the top 10% most read in Magnetic Resonance in Medicine 🤩! #JuliaLang
- Reposted by Carlos Castillo Passi“New horizons for Julia”: lwn.net/Articles/100... My article about #julialang 1.11 and new directions for the language. I talk about new tooling for installation, compilation to small binaries, Julia in browsers, and more. #science #programming
- My first impressions of #Stanford: Wow! What a lovely campus. I’m not sure if this could even be considered winter. Pretty excited 😊!
- Reposted by Carlos Castillo PassiThe countdown is on: Just 3 days left to submit your proposal for JuliaCon 2025! The Call for Proposals closes on January 31st, 2025, at 23:59 EST. Submit your proposal today:https://pretalx.com/juliacon-2025/cfp #JuliaCon2025 #CallForProposals #JuliaLang
- Reposted by Carlos Castillo PassiHi folks! Our first JuliaHealth meeting of the year is taking place this Wednesday 12 - 2PM EST! We will be reflecting on last year, the coming year, and planning for @juliacon.bsky.social! Come with your thoughts and give the agenda a look! Hope to see you there! #julialang #medsky #academicsky
- Just gave a two-day #JuiaLang workshop, and the fastest and the most improved code (after some performance tips) won a mug. People can get really competitive when you put a leaderboard on screen😜.
- This was all done automatically generated when they created a PR to this repo with their code github.com/cncastillo/p...
- The materials for the workshop (some based on the incredible work by Carsten Bauer) and videos (in Spanish) will be uploaded here: github.com/LIBREhub/Adv...
- I also made this drawing to explain multiple dispatch #JuliaLang 😁
- Reposted by Carlos Castillo PassiExcited to say that for the first time ever, JuliaHealth will be hosting a mini-Symposium at @juliacon.bsky.social 2025! More details to come but we are looking forward to hearing from YOU! Excited to hear submissions about talks, demos, and tutorials! 🧪 🛟🩺 #medsky #julialang
