I guess I can see some parallel the way you describe it, but it is not that tight of an analogy IMO. Correct me if I'm wrong but the Lottery Ticket Hypothesis mainly means that, for many of our tasks, we start with needlessly huge netw

Wait, what does "couldn't find a CEO" mean? Wasn't there a single VP- or director-level person in that industry willing to be a CEO for that pay? Or does that mean they only consider a very small set of people who are CE

Localization could be important too, for broader adoption - not just for currency display but (most importantly) the kinds of investments available and tax rates vary a lot. A minor thing is that the 'default' values for % return

Good point. I imagine there must be ongoing research to define the most relevant (frequent, desirable) "classes" of remote work. If there's isn't, then large moderated communities like HN and Stackoverflow are in an uniq

This is in line with my (admittedly not well researched) theory of why 'many primitive cultures built pyramids': a square-based pyramid is the most stable structure that you can build to be really high. Columns, arches and metalwo

For real. The blabber about 'amount of ammo' being the most important aspect seems farfetched to me. If you're in firefights enough that you need thousands and thousands of rounds you're going to die no matter what. I ke

Hey, I did just that last week (actually I import Pandas, which requires numpy). There's a "plugin" option for numpy, in Nuitka, that makes it work. There are similar plugins for a handful of packages.

Hey - first of all, looks great and I'll definitely look into it. Good job! Question - do you have any comparisons on the size of the resulting distributed executable compared to Nuitka, pyinstaller? This is the issue I've faced.
