Finally, gonna be a lot of fun to finally play around with, lets see how it compares to Python for ML ultimately :) The build process is quite heavy, pinning all my cores at 100% on a Threadripper 9970X for ~15 minutes which isn't so common.

Curious to know what setups they've tested Mojo on so far, as I understood it to be mainly for ML/AI stuff, so commonly pretty beefy workstation, yet I'm getting warnings that it's not recognizing my GPU (RTX Pro 6000). Seems easy enough to work around by editing the gpu_mapping in MODULE.bazel so I guess isn't a huge issue. Just strange to see a really CPU-heavy build, then not recognizing a somewhat common "prosumer" GPU (common in the ecosystem and expected user audience at least).

My expectation is always that sm120 is the forgotten orphan in the mix and that I'll have to monkey-patch my way to getting things running (and its not always due to lack of tcgen05 or other "real blackwell" features, its often just failing fallback kernel paths doing things that were clearly not tested).

Mojo's design goals would in theory help this problem long term, but my sm120 PTSD still lingers.
