Looks really cool. Build on windows fails for me, are there any downloadable prebuilt binaries to try lpython quickly ?


Yes, try `conda install -c conda-forge lpython`. It should work on Windows, but it's not as extensively tested as macOS and Linux. If it doesn't work, please report it, and we'll fix it. Once we get to beta, we will support Windows very well.


It worked, thanks !


Interesting that two of the most powerful techniques which can essentially kill chat GPT : Orca and Textbooks, both come from Microsoft.


I have been using Helix editor for last three months {was a sublime user earlier} and am really liking it. Its LSP is faster than Sublime, needs minimal setup and very similar to vim. I knew Vim from my engineering days but the configuration part of Vim kept me away from using it and thus using sublime. Helix solved that specific problem.


Its not just a meme in this case btw :D https://twitter.com/SchmidhuberAI/status/1605246688939364352


I guess their issue is that due to the professor's clout, its hard for them to say no to do work at t&m they are no longer comfortable at [maybe even for free]. That's why the 'powerplay' ref ? I know that can be frustrating because I worked with a professor once who wanted me to work a lot before giving me clarity about money/cred.


If I may ask, do you have any book which has solutions of some of these hard integrals so that one can get a knack of ways to solve them than just start from first principles like by-parts ? Nntaleb and his twitter followers also often discuss solutions by methods which were not taught in Calculus 2.

It would be great idea to see one such book if it doesn't exist.



Thanks for sharing :)


Almost Impossible Integrations, Sums, and Series is a nice one.


Thanks for sharing :)


Same with me. I even go ahead and save articles as PDF and come back to about 1% of these PDFs when I read later. The other 99% are never touched.

Pretty sure this is related to ADHD. Its as if collecting information creates the big picture view the mind finds it hard to develop reading just one source.

I actually plan to take a week off and do nothing but quick read PDFs related to each relevant topic every year. That's my resolution for 2023.


This is a very well structured talk.


Just curious whether you have checked out Nim. I love it coming from Python, curious to know what Crystal offers apart from Nim for Python users.


Compared to Nim, Crystal is more OOP-focused and very similar to Ruby, so if that's your thing, it's worth switching, otherwise probably not.


Sorry haven't heard about it but thanks for bringing it to my attention!


I watched a Hayek recording a few days back and he was saying exactly what a "genuine" crypto person thinks today.


There's also a very prescient interview with Milton Friedman from the turn of the millenium that says the Internet has revolutionised business and communication, and the next milestone would be creating a digital currency that doesn't have any border or control but it's completely Internet native.

This is the recording I am talking of : https://t.co/t7nLUskAKs


And what is that?
