nbonaparte··on Shift-to-Middle Array: A Faster Alternative to Std:Deque?
There’s a PDF with the results in the repo: https://github.com/attilatorda/Shift-To-Middle_Array/blob/ma...

BTW, if OP is reading this, I recommend having the baseline in your plots (e.g. std::deque) as the relative 100%, that way the performance improvement is clear.

nbonaparte··on DeepGEMM: clean and efficient FP8 GEMM kernels with fine-grained scaling

You seem to have confused 1421 with 1491. The latter is generally considered to be a well-researched book while the former is, as you say, merely a grand tale.
