Oh man, I'm using CL for aoc this year and just figured out how to install Coalton. Maybe I'll do couple of days in it as well!

I want to achieve two things (besides work and fitness): study math fundamentals and get into (computational) neuroscience.

I read it a couple of years ago and it's pretty good indeed.

Yeah, they're both great.

by dunefox 5y ago
Read both and they're very good.

You just reminded me that I have it somewhere in my book shelf already, but I've never read it!

I think that would have been a great case for Kotlin native.

Good science fiction books about intelligence, AI, artificial life forms, etc.?

For Julia there's pycall: https://github.com/JuliaPy/PyCall.jl I believe there's one for the opposite direction as well.

I'm using F# and FParsec atm, works great.

It's because Go is a 90s (procedural) language in 2021 and I would maybe use it in a parallel universe where many other languages don't exist.

This is such a non-issue and I'm tired of reading a version of this comment in any thread where Julia is mentioned.

Not with its Unicode handling.

Similar story for me. I did last years Advent of code in Julia and it was great.

As a German, I will believe it when it's been done and I have bought my first legal joint and not a minute before that...

But since 2017* is smaller than even the leftmost date it's still false, isn't it?

Postgres seems to signal an error, which is preferable IMHO.

I don't know much about databases but shouldn't where num1 <= date <= num2 throw an error if it's not supported, yet silently returns false data? The dates are integers. select * from facebook_event_check

Philosophical Foundations of Neuroscience, An Introductory Course in Computational Neuroscience, and Principles of Neural Design - all bought used for an okay price. Not exactly very theoretical books, but the topic fascinated me recently a

I'm reading Dune and I just bought a couple of neuroscience and math books. Maybe I'll even have time to read them!

Absolutely. But I suggest learning it a couple of days beforehand just to know the tooling and the language enough to get started. A cold start with AoC is quite hard.

Yeah, I did the first week of 2020 with both Lisp and Julia and parsing was indeed an issue; but I'm a Lisp beginner anyway. Do you have a repo somewhere with the lisp code?

I'm torn between F# and Common Lisp (maybe even Raku for one or two puzzles). Julia is my fallback, as always. I think this year I want to solve all puzzles (got to 3/4 last year) and have all of them run in under one second, coll

That's a list union[number, string, object] or list[Any], not a sum type, no? This `data X = A | B [A, B, ...]` Is a list containing a sum type: list[X]

That's not a very profound argument.
