So Israel can't enjoy the same right to self defense that any other state would? They can't conduct a war in an urban environment with an actual intentionally genocidal enemy, and …

Second !

How about the misery of a loved one going untreated, undiagnosed and dismissed by physicians with a facile understanding of chronic multi system disease dynamics. People who do tha…

Don't expect a good answer. That brand of skepticism is performative rationality devoid of actual critical thinking.

It's really depressing that a handful of big corporations will be able to exert such control over labor and productivity

What tasks?

What's the difference between chat and instruction tuning?

How does mojo handle function polymorphism and abstraction? Julia uses multiple dispatch, Haskell type classes etc Edit: I see you're going to have protocols/ traits. Can those be …

Interesting. What's your prompt?

If you're only looking for one novel view, can it use less views that are close to the novel one?

Even then shape errors would require a dependent type system not found in most static languages.

What are your concerns around the support / dev? Google has a fairly sizable team around it, it has a fast path to adoption by the large pool of swift devs and fast.ai, and of cour…

It does not have macros.

Why can't you just have the higher level representation of the code available and just recompile everything?

Perhaps this helps? https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/master/proposa... and this https://twitter.com/jckarter/status/1202260205074968578

So it's a package, not a language issue? Here's a revamp based on protocols https://github.com/apple/swift-numerics

That makes sense. Swift is also way too complex and syntatically noisy imo. I like that Julia has a smaller set of very powerful abstractions. Though isn't point (2) just a convent…

This can be done better with traits in Julia, which are more powerful, safer and faster. See here: https://white.ucc.asn.au/2018/10/03/Dispatch,-Traits-and-Met...

Thanks. I mean in julia you can use traits for that, but it's not built in (yet). Though there's no speed penalty, as you probably know. So this is about extending types, but it so…

Sure, but I'm more looking for something from the swift side of whether Swift can do the same sort of composable generic programming.
