Let’s be honest, there is little benefits to take a compiler course in 2023 (best one is to satisfy curiosity). 1/ there isn’t much to know about parsing and any good compiler course won’t spend too much time on it anyway 2/ and

Well I indeed expected more than a few basic definitions for sure. For instance I was expecting a few case studies where a blind application of sklearn defaults led to issues fixed with proper probabilistic thinking. I remain unconvinced ab
