They usually cannot improve carefully optimized numpy operations, nor GPU operations. The use cases are thus limited.

This. A lot of GPU deep learning libs depend on CUDA, cuDNN, which is not solved by pipenv / virtualenv, BUT is actually handled by conda.

But the whole point of this discussion is that you should probably duplicate as many times as needed if it helps to avoid wrong abstraction.

I know the Dark Matter Theory is very successful at explaining lots of phenomenons of cosmological physics. Nevertheless, it always reminds me of the Aether Theory.

Also they tend to downvote comments that do carry weight, so from this perspecitve, they are not that positive after all.

THis. I think the type hint system adds so much visual noise it starts to look like perl. When an attempt to build huge (100k+) project with Python failes, it is not because of the duck typing, but simply because Python is not designed for

Apparently everybody knows "correctness" comes first. But that is the whole point of this article: It argues that complexity will reduce correctness, and thus simple should come first. Please NOTE that I am not saying that I agree

Most scripts do not have reusability and not warrant sharing. If they do, make them into a library.

It doesn't matter whether we are alone or not. The speed limit is so slow, the dilation is so quick, we will never be able to contact.

I use Numpy NDArray and pandas DataFrames a lot, and often times you want to validate the shape / columns / dtype of theses objects. I have yet to find a clean and meaningful way to type hint these, and ended up just put assertion

One thing I always dislike about julia is the .+ .* .< ... all those dots for element-wise operations. It is inherited from Matlab, but is a bad design because more common usage should have shorter operators.

I like the spirit of it, but the implementation seems to contain too many exceptions (e.g. trailing comma, whilespaces around :). This problem is not unique to Black, it is actually too common for most auto-formatters. I usually prefer a se

I second that. They are avoiding the real problem by pretending to fight for social justices.

But that is still 2 keystrokes. That is why in R they came to the compromise to use both <- and =.

The length of symbols should roughly be negatively correlated with its frequency. Since in procedural language, assignment is a much more common operation than equality check, it is reasonable to favor "=" over ":=" or e

Text editing efficiency is overrated, at least for coders. thinking >>> editing. If serious non-trivial editing effort is required, write a script to do it.
