The two narratives are not mutually exclusive. In contrast to other parts of the world, the English and French would have just divided the territory with arbitrary lines. Why did they suddenly need a buffer zone? Rather as this history desc

How is Julia an interpreted language? I sometimes wish there was a robust interpreter for Julia when the compilation latency is not worth the execution speed.

My biggest problem with Jupyter is hidden state. You have no idea what order the cells executed in and how many times to get to the current state. Pluto.jl and Marimo solve that by using reactivity to make state transparent. WYSIWYG. I have

Probably not directly but eventually I could see it having some benefits for what you listed.

No, of course not. I am totally not a bot. I just like to connect together unrelated events to see trends at scale.

I think a strategy for Qualcomm would be to use Mojo and Max as a software platform to drive AI inference on ARMv9 chips such as Snapdragon either at the edge (your smartphone) or in the cloud.

I do not think Julia ever intended to be a Python clone. Julia was created in 2009 when Python was not as popular as today. I think the statement is a strange one to make about a language that emerged from a PhD thesis. While one could say

It is not the only solution to that technical problem though. Past attempts at this have shown a clear preference for solutions that actually are extensions of CPython rather than distinct tool chains.

I'm not really sure if Mojo has lost or not, but the community has felt quite different than other language communities I have encountered. The development feels less organic and more driven by venture capital. This is most acutely fel

The 0 or 1 based indexing is actually a very superficial debate for people not very familiar with Julia. Note that 1-based indexing is a standard library feature not inherent to the Julia language itself. The real indexing issue is whether

Was there something you did not like about Marimo? It is also open source and can run locally. I'm still confused about your motivations and how your solution differs.

The pyproject.toml, package.json, and Cargo.toml are declarative project configuration files. While the Rust community refers to Cargo.toml as a manifest, it is not a comprehensive and detailed list of a build. That is the lock file. While

"overengineered" is not the term I would use to describe Python packaging. I would say it is "under-engineered". As in, "Why engineer a configuration file when you can just do it in code?". This tendency toward
