FWIW, Julia does segment its method tables into multiple layers depending upon size and type. Multiple dispatch is a strict superset of single-dispatch, and indeed the first layer …

Is your home folder on a network drive?

Thanks for the report: https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/40190 Edit: it's now building: https://github.com/JuliaLang/docs.julialang.org/runs/2196972...

That same format string is used in multiple places, and unfortunately I don't think the text engine they expose to us is smart enough to do the ordinal 1st 2nd 3rd thing. Edit: oh,…

The problem is a minor placement issue for the `@simd` macro: https://github.com/kostya/benchmarks/pull/317

As an administrator at Julia's discourse, I'd be really curious if this was the reason. Discourse's default "short date" format is super problematic. By default, they display somet…

The feature I'm most excited about is the parallel — and automatic — precompilation. Combined with the iterative latency improvements, Julia 1.6 has far fewer coffee breaks.

Benefits are highly regional. Where I live, the current latest sunrise is 8:06 am on December 5. I can't imagine a sunrise after 9am being very fun.

Sure, there is a subset of behaviors for which this style makes sense, but it's just as well supported by simply defining your own functions alongside the struct.

Julia will be able to generate c-compatible .so/.dlls in a not so distant future.

I actually find it far more linguistic, that is, more akin to natural languages. In my view, it's not multiple dispatch per se that is the bigger departure from traditional OOP, it…

This seems to assume some background knowledge of the situation, of which I had none. Here's a quick primer: > He left The New York Times in 2021 following public reports of making…

Yeah, you (used to?) be able to do multi-room audio with the original Airplay, but it was only supported from Macs. iOS did not support it.

Lots of the sciml.ai packages and documentation use Weave — you can look there for some examples. Here's one: https://diffeq.sciml.ai/stable/tutorials/sde_example/

I encourage folks to actually read the linked article instead of basing their commentary on the shoddy title. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41928-020-00523-3 Abstract: > Resisti…

> No, it mostly affects execution time. Citation needed. Yes, the -1 appears in the source code. It might even appear in the intermediate representation. It'll even show up in the …

Or how about just waiting until it gets merged and officially adopted?

From that study: > Limitations: ... no assessment of whether masks could decrease disease transmission from mask wearers to others. This has always been the main motivation for mas…

Yeah, but this is a laptop chip at ~20W. Of course it's not going to compete with a 16-core 120W monster. Getting 1/4 of the performance with 1/4 of the (high perf) cores and 1/6 o…

Poor response, as pandemic safety 101 would prevent this: - wash your hands - wear a mask - practice social distancing - avoid extended periods indoors with non-household members h…

It's not just about protecting you, though. It's also about protecting our limited healthcare resources. Every year I get the flu shot to protect me, you, and our shared healthcare…

I'm not "free" to ignore stop signs, stop lights, and speed limits. They impact my freedom to drive as I'd wish -- because otherwise I might hurt you. I'm not "free" to start cooki…
