Goals: Add links that are reasonable and good explanations of how stuff works. No hype and no vendor content if possible. Practical first-hand accounts of models in prod eagerly sought.

This is a short post that explains how to write a high-performance matrix multiplication program on modern processors. In this tutorial I will use a single core of the Skylake-client CPU with AVX2, but the principles in this post also apply to other processors with different instruction sets (such as AVX512).
Matrix multiplication is a mathematical operation that defines the product of

FWIW: I (@rondy) am not the creator of the content shared here, which is an excerpt from Edmond Lau's book. I simply copied and pasted it from another location and saved it as a personal note, before it gained popularity on news.ycombinator.com. Unfortunately, I cannot recall the exact origin of the original source, nor was I able to find the author's name, so I am can't provide the appropriate credits.
Friend: I tried looking at static linking in Mac OS X and it seems nearly impossible. Take a look at this http://stackoverflow.com/a/3801032
Me: I have no idea what that
-static
flag does, but I'm pretty sure that's not how you link to a library. Let me RTFM a bit.
Minutes later...
Never break backcompat, keep the API nimble
An extension of SemVer with a stricter (yet more realistic) backcompat guarantee, that provides more flexibility to change the API, for libraries that are packaged and downloaded (not services accessed remotely over the Internet (see Note 4)).
