What do you mean by ethical value? Being not homosexual is ethical value in your logic?

Just ease of installing and standardization would rule out latex. Latex packaging is nightmare. Verbosity will be solved by tones of JS and python packages.

Which kind of laptops are you speaking for? M1 GPu performance Blow any integrated gpu and all middle class separate GPUs (mx250, etc).

Isn't JS a Lisp with 'C' syntax? Ruby also is a very expressive and clean language. I just don't get why you put Scala or Kotlin on unsloppy side.

Small integeres are object in python. They are cached in some implemention. If you only care about shallow syntax, yes it's confusing. But if you care more about semantics, it's completely consistent and doesn't make especial

In python it completely makes sense because it's an object oriented language and threat everything as object. In fact it's very consistent about that. Even classes are object and instance of metaclass. Difference between '==&

You should always use 'is' with None. == Is operator that can be overloaded and 'is' is object identity comparison. It make sense when you understand object system. You will be terribly messed up when use some numpy arra

Have you look at mypyc? https://github.com/python/mypy Its a compiler that support subset of python and mypy's team including Guido work on it. It would be great if this kind of efforts have been done on more real

I know they are foundations of mathematics. They are elements of mathematical logic. No disagreement on this. But how they are not mathematics? They are part of mathematical logic and mathematical logic or logic in general is branch of math

I think you missed my point. The type theory is mathematics. So saying that math in type theory is nonsense.

This basically is used by someone who forced to use python's libraries.

The title "Mathematics in type theory" is like mathematics in real analysis or set theory.

Why should type annotation be enforced at run time? In statically typed languages there is no type checking at run time, your type system already proved the type of variable.

Python's ploting problem is not imperative vs declarative. The main ugliness is basically "* * kwargs" every where. Every time it force you look at document to just find name of parameter you are looking for. Another common p

`is` is identity comparison and in python everything is "object". It check if two variable refer to same object (location in memory) or not. So you should not expect that `a is b` for `a=1.2 , b=1.2` be true. In this case actually

It doesn't matter it’s slower than C/++ or Java . In fact, that’s an advantage; you want your algorithms to be fast because they’re actually good, not just because your hardware is fast. I think you completely missed the point on
