    Very cool! I would imagine this helps LLMs catch errors while refactoring code. How hard is it to migrate existing pandas/Polars code to Typol? Most importantly, how did you come u…

    > Python essentially bet on UTF-32 (with space-saving optimisations) How so? Python3 strings are unicode and all the encoding/decoding functions default to utf-8. In practice this …

    It's not the same thing as multidimensional arrays though. You can have multidimensional arrays without rank polymorphism. Rank polymorphism makes working with multidimensional arr…

    Yes we do. The OP's point is that _if_ there is collusion, building housing will help solve the collusion problem _and_ solve the housing shortage. Spending effort on theoretical c…

    Or perhaps cooking? Cooking can really spike AQI if ventilation is suboptimal. Another potential explanation is cleaning products. I think these are both far more likely than perfu…
