And Julia's Pkg! One of my primary reasons for switching away from Python to Julia was how ergonomic modern dependency management was.

Looks like that's correct though things have been reorderd since the original: https://web.archive.org/web/20141202041102/https://danluu.co... Without that context, some of the criticisms seem unfai

I think so - Julia master branch (1.7 precursor) works on M1, but not all the dependencies that some packages require have been built for M1. Though, I understand that the wonderful packaging system and the folks who work on it are working

I'm on mobile, but do also consider https://JuliaActuary.org (something that I personally have contributed to).

Related note about something I've been working on: https://JuliaActuary.org It's basically packages to support actuarial work written in Julia, which addresses a lot of the issues of Python/R (environment manageme

Interesting recommendation. I've been wanting to read something that talks about important failures and the root/structural causes. E.g. I loved reading into the Challenger disaster and the follow-up investigations and was interes

Programming languages count as technology, right? I'm really excited for what Julia is doing - making a really nice ecosystem of modern, dynamic, high performance code.

To give a quick comparison with Julia: 1. Native Data types - this is one of the things that Julia was designed to do very well. That is, native-like-treatment for all data without needing to have a C-family underbelly like Python does for

Julia has a really great threading model coming in v1.3, which is likely to be released this month: https://julialang.org/blog/2019/07/multithreading It already supports a variety of parallel techniques but i

I bounce back and forth, usually using Gadfly for most plotting but Plots.jl is convenient for some stats plots (see StatsPlots.jl, which extends Plots.jl with nice built in functions for working with stats).

I've moved all of my development from Python to Julia - The syntax is similar, but I think Julia's is more expressive and powerful once you start looking into the details. Macros, broadcasting (automatic vectorization), lambda fun

What are some good resources to learn about debugging patterns and tips/tricks? My preferred language, Julia, recently introduced a nice set of tools related to debugging. I feel like there's probably things that would make me mor

Really like the diagram[1] (which I found the source in [2]. Another one on Wikipedia[3]. What's not clear is how is this changing over time? Given the greenhouse gas narrative (which I accept), how has the "back radiation"

I experience this on ATT fiber. ping'ing 1.1.1.1 times out.

FWIW as an ATT Fiber customer, I was not able to (and am still not able to) access 1.1.1.1. I tried just a couple days after Cloudflare announced the service, and requests timed out. I can access with a VPN, however.

My current approach to this problem is a feature of LastPass - if a designated person requests access to your account, and you don't respond within [x] days, then they are granted access. I set this to be the people necessary for after

Be careful with this: The projections are gross (ie not inflation-adjusted) and the advice buried in the explanatory text below does not sufficiently discuss this issue. It says you can do a "simple" calculation by applying one ye
