As a user said below, you wouldn't need cross platform support, incremental builds, tests to run, etc. Just getting the code to compile, link, baking in assets, etc. For a single architecture is a much more reasonable goal. I'd im

Fwiw C++ is hard to build specifically, but any large project with assets is a challenge to build. Video games build systems are a thing onto themselves even taking the c++ issues out of the equation. Hell even comparatively simole microser

Right, if your issue is that you're getting a ton of small, individual API calls, python will suffer. At that point you'd look to Go or another language, and also carefully choose the REST API framework you're setting up. Not

There sure is! Here's a recent review: https://www.nber.org/papers/w29522 It's a pretty consistent finding among labor economics researchers that firms have monopsony power over workers. > What's left

That's a data layout problem largely, though. If your data is fragmented across a bunch of small containers/classes, passing it around will be expensive whichever the method (either passing to C++, or just in terms of cache effici

Right, like OLS. Don't get me wrong -- they're great tools. Especially OLS for analysis has this whole framework for understanding errors you will not get in models fit using maximum likelihood methods. But as a final usecase for

SVD is used more for mathematical elegance than practicality (like ordinary least squares) In data science most traditional usecases for SVD are superceded by other algorithms (UMAP is especially popular these days).

The problem with drop-in replacements between CPU and GPU code is that performance GPU code requires rethinking the dataflow often -- so even if the code itself is a drop-in, the "make it good" part still requires some rewriting.
