Its also very similar to many opinionated Python style guides (minus the !, and where @ is used for decorators [which are a bit meta like macros])

This is partially fixed in Julia 0.5 (or available now as BaseTestNext.jl in Julia 0.4). Its basically a backwards-compatible rewrite of the former Base.Test that adds the notion of test sets - enabling counting tests by default, but also n

There are definitely some scope issues with the distributed computing functionality, see e.g. https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/13649 for a general tracking issue (also, that is the 0.3 version of the

Source? One of the best arguments, that is personally relevant to the work I do, is that indexing in math often starts at 1 (e.g. the indexing of rows and columns of a matrix). Translating this to code results in a mental overhead of mappin

The problem is that you may have to stray outside that vectorized bubble, and at that point you enter into a two-language situation if you are using R (e.g. RCpp) or Python (Cython?) - which was one of the motivations for the whole Julia la

As someone who almost exclusively uses Julia for their day-to-day work (and side projects), I think most of the author's thoughts about Julia are correct. I think the language is great, and using it makes my life better. There are some

I was really impressed that the author included this caveat: > A word on procedure: In this section, we've smoothly moved from single hidden-layer shallow networks to many-layer convolutional networks. It's all seemed so easy!

Oh for sure, precomputation is essential. Hell, on a 100-1000 node sparse graph you can store all pairs shortest path info in a really small amount of data (like, PC game feasible for sure). For a game situation I'd be willing to burn

Thats an explicit constraint, not an implicit constraint: The first person has an explicit constraint of "Lets consider only proposals that use existing technology". Thats exactly my point! Except in this case the implicit constra

Implicit constraints kind of suck for the purposes of creating and sharing knowledge though, don't you think? Even constrained to the domain, there are a wide variety of devices people play games on, so I still think its misleading to
