I wrote a Bloom Filter for college in CUDA in 2009. My advisor was a former Nvidia guy. I then went on to not do any GPU programming at all in my career.

I probably could have made $100,000,000 if I had made a different choice there.

Same here.

I'm quite sure I wrote one of the first GPU optimized bioinformatics toolkits ... out of curiosity, on a GeForce 8, using CUDA v1(!) back in 2009.

Then went on to do other things ... missed the big bux.
