I didn't know that Polars was implemented in Rust. In fact, it's very neat that Rust can interop with Python so cleanly, but that shouldn't be surprising since Python is basically a wrapper around C libraries. But I still thi

Wow, what a cool workflow. I looks like the interop promise of Apache Arrow is real. It's a great thing when your computer works as fast as you think as opposed to sitting around waiting for queries to finish.

I am impressed that Polar is close to DuckDB near the top. It's surprising that a Python library would often out perform everything but DuckDB. DuckDB is very impressive but DataFrames and Python is too useful to give up on.

The biggest lesson I took away from all of these hype cycles is how unpredictable they are in their arc. Some trends like AV seem like they were going to take over the world, but they died down as quickly as they rose when we realize how ha

If you can put javascript and animations in pdf, what's stopping you from making a frontend in it? I wonder what are the frontiers of things you can do in pdf. Honestly, it seems like only malware authors benefit from the complexity of

Yea, I am a struggling to figure out what the secret sauce of this library and if that sauce is introducing foot guns down the line. Multiprocessing std uses fork in linux distros already. I once ran a multiprocess code on Linux and Windows

A lot of problem with Python packages is the fact that a lot of Python programs is not just Python. You have a significant amount of C++, Cython, and binaries (like Intel MKL) when it comes to scientific Python and machine learning. All of

I don't know if "correct" and "fun" are at odds with each other. There are very famous examples of games failing at the start because of bugs like Cyberpunk. There is a point where the game is too broken to enjoy. Y
