For those of you unfamiliar with Wool (which I'm assuming is most of you reading this), it's a distributed execution runtime for Python I've been working on that adds parallelism t…

I’m not sure why people are assuming I’m pushing for distributed OOP here. Wool is completely unopinionated about how you decide to architect your application - that’s the entire p…

So if you wanted to scale, say, a hyperparameter search across a cluster, what would you prefer?

Wasn’t previously aware of this opinion, but having read it, I can tell you I’m not actually committing this fallacy within the framework- I’m not forcing anyone into making their …

I think LLMs are incredible tools that I will continue to use unapologetically, but I’m also very particular and not going to be putting my name to AI slop. Those are my genuine th…

You mean the cadence where everything is presented in threes? Yeah I hate it too, but beats paying some blogger to do it

Sure, my argument is that those concerns should be composable with the distribution layer, not defined by it. There are plenty of different ways to pass data across a network or be…

To be clear, not all of your coroutines become distributed. You explicitly declare what you want executed remotely, and you'll probably want your workers running in a VPC - it's ju…

But seriously, I just wanted to have an easy way to parallelize my projects without a bunch of slow, bloated, boilerplate ridden frameworks, and I'm having fun building it. And I m…

I'm running this in a trusted environment, I'm not so ambitious as to try to make this some sort of whacky trustless distributed Python runtime. Just a fun project that's been mari…

For one, it's faster than prefect and ray so I can use it for more stuff without having to import a 10000000 line library.

I wouldn't say it abstracts the locking mechanisms away - if you need synchronization in your app, it's probably best to leave how that's achieved up to the user - what it does is …
