    I'm curious and not an expert here, do you know why the TTFT is so much worse on Mac? To elaborate, the article just says that this step is compute bound, but I'm wondering whether…

    I raised this in person to a number of array language implementors (and Connor Hoekstra) last year and they weren't familiar with interaction nets. I'm not sure that I was successf…

    In my experience a culture where teammates prioritise review times (both by checking on updates in GH a few times a day, and by splitting changes agressively into smaller patches) …

    Missing Muna[0][1], I'm curious how it would compare on these benchmarks. [0]: https://www.muna.ai/ [1]: https://docs.muna.ai/predictors/create

    Also seems like the repo is now private, so I can't open an issue, or reproduce the numbers.

    I'm surprised that the `isinstance()` comparison is with `type() == type` and not `type() is type`, which I would expect to be faster, since the `==` implementation tends to have a…

    We've been relying on TypeForm (an experimental feature in Pyright) in xDSL. Since there are some Astral members commenting here: are there any plans to support TypeForm any time s…

    In MLIR, there are two representations of memory, `tensor` and `memref`, which enables you to do some high-level things[0] in SSA before "bufferizing" to memrefs, which are eventua…

    Yep, although never in a project of a similar size. One advantage of the Python setup is that the types are ignored at runtime, so there's no overhead at startup/compilation time. …

    Can someone familiar with performance of LLMs please tell me how important this is to the overall perf? I'm interested in looking into optimizing tokenizers, and have not yet run t…

    I really want to switch to Zed from Cursor but the battery usage for my Python project with Pyright is unjustifiable. There are issues for this on GitHub and I'm just sad that the …

    I love that language and frequently show it to people. I'm sad to see that my local install doesn't work any more. I actually used it to solve a puzzle in Evoland 2 that I'm relati…

    I once used Sentient[0] to solve a similar puzzle in a different game that I think made a puzzle that required a constraint solver as a joke on the player. I'm a bit saddened to se…

    My experience with Zig is that it's also a plausible replacement for C++

    I know of a few projects looking in that direction, each optimising for different things, and none getting near the capability of LLVM, which is going to take some time. I spoke wi…

    The typing version is still useful when you want to communicate that the result conforms to a certain interface, which doesn't include mutability in the case of Set, but not the ex…

    We use Textual as an interactive way to explore compilation pipelines in xDSL [0]. As our compiler is written in Python, it was the perfect tool to build a UI in the same language …

    If they wanted to, why wouldn't they make a modified, specialized, server rack version of their hardware?
