    Repo has been deleted? I get a 404. I did see it earlier on. I fed the equation image (screenshot at the right frame from their gif then cropped) into ChatGPT (GPT4-V) and it corre…

    This downvoting to -3 is illustrative of how HN down votes are about territorial warfare, ego, etc. Has nothing to do with logic. You don't like to port your python code to nogil p…
