    It proves the point. Numpy still doesn't have the semantics of a full programming language like Mojo/C++/Julia.

    Sure, but if you're writing in the JAX DSL you've already abandoned python.

    Never had one, but I might pick one up on ebay if I ever need to support Intel Mac users.

    1. Why not Julia? IIRC, some/all of this already exists in that ecosystem. > Something to note is that quantum algorithms are never purely quantum. There is a tonne of classical pr…

    If it matches GPT-5.4 on coding tasks (as benchmarks suggest) this could be my forever model. And with partial SSD streaming, I could run it locally today. :D

    Take for instance Pandoric Macros that allow you to peek inside the hidden state of a closure: # Traditional Let over Lambda counter = let x = 100 () -> x += 1 end counter() # 101 …

    I'm not fluent enough in Common Lisp for that book, but the patterns in Let over Lambda translate cleanly to Julia. You can have "Let over Lambda", "Let over Lambda over Let over L…

    I wouldn't trust Gemini anywhere near my code. However, it's pretty good at regurgitating textbook answers (classic Google...). This makes it an asset for circuit design. Try one o…

    You can write Julia code as normal and see each compiled function at the REPL. Very similar to a local Compiler Explorer. Although as mentioned plenty of times, the largest wins te…

    If uglier code can turn your non-realtime app into realtime, then it's worth it.

    In some cases the ergonomics are worse than C, which is a feat in 2026. Portable SIMD is (perma?) nightly. Requires 'unsafe' everywhere. To skip bounds-checking, you typically need…

    Or it exists and is not optimal for your use case?

    Reading "Custom CPU" I expected wafer.space, instead of FPGA.

    I assume Nativ doesn't support SSD streaming like DwarfStar.

    1. iOS doesn't allow JIT for apps distributed through the App Store. However, WASM (including JIT) is allowed. Effectively, this would allow Julia to run on i(Pad)OS. 2. Technicall…

    I'm very interested in your use case. I looked into bit-slicing techniques, but they increase throughput at the cost of massive latency. This is not acceptable for realtime audio.

    Having too many orders is a good problem to have (unless it gets cloned). Worst case, you pay an external contractor to sort compliance/fulfillment/whatever.

    "Do things that don't scale!" is standard founder advice for a reason. The fact that no one else has put in the work means you get to sell $150 MIDI recorders... for a while. Which…
