in short - funding. If we can find someone who wants fast numpy AND fast python under the same hood, we can combine the approaches of cpyext and numpypy and make it fast. The project is just too big to do on spare time. I've been trying to find some funding for that for quite a while, but I haven't been able to find any sizable backer just yet.
Cheers,
Maciej Fijalkowski
- boultonmark 9y agoMaciej, how much would that require, ballpark? I think this is something there would be massive support for. My company would support it
- bastawhiz 9y agoHow much does it cost to pay a knowledgeable engineer for a few years? Probably the better part of a million dollars, at least.
- boultonmark 9y agoIs your name Maciej?
- surye 9y agoIs this a private correspondence?
- fijal 9y agoHi I would say, ballpark, $100k. Email me at fijal at baroquesoftware.com EDIT: the actual figure depends precisely on what you want, which parts of the stack have to be exactly how fast etc.
- nimish 9y agoHow do I get involved?
