Any time you need deep access to things that a compiler doesn't let you touch, like control registers. Writing your own operating system is one example.

It's also useful when you're getting a weird bug and can't figure out why because there's nothing wrong with what you programmed in a higher level language. I found out that the compiler I was using didn't understand the scope of variables when I repeatedly used the same variable name inside sub-blocks buried within other blocks that already had a variable with that name.

Is polars + plotnine currently the best tool on Earth for complex plotting? Or does the crown still go to the tidyverse?

>>107834660
If it was that simple it would've happened by now, python has dominated ML for a long time. It has a ton of great libraries available but somehow they are all still worse than ggplot. desu it's possible that they simply made too many instead of working on polishing one good one. The other curse is that the only common ground between the mess of libraries (and thus what works with everything) is matplotlib. which is ass

>(unless its just you samefagging)
Nah this is not a samefagged thread. I'm the OP and I made it because I like using polars + plotnine the most, but seaborn + pandas and the tidyverse both seem to be more popular and mature, so I'm wondering if I'm missing something.
>>
>>107837792
I have used all of them. Plotnine is very solid. But, keep in mind it's largely a clone of ggplot2, and it's still a lot less mature. For example geom_smooth lacks any decent methods for large data. Its my favorite python plotting library as well, but its usage is awkward because the API was made for R.
matplotlib is really quirky but when you need full control, like you're investing a lot of time into a chart for marketing or making a production app, it's worth the trouble. For adhoc work it's really heavy which discourages exploring the data. But you have to know it because every other python plotting library requires you to fall back to it for "unusual" things (which you will always run into)
Seaborn is in between, it's really inflexible. Good for extremely simple things that it was designed for, but I usually regret and fall back to matplotlib.

Polars is simultaneously the best data frame library ever, and extremely fucking annoying at the same time. Its api is great but you CANNOT use normal numpy functions with it. So as soon as you need something like a regression in groups or even a weighted average, you have a problem. You have to either use the slow shitty path with map_groups or dive into rust. Pandas is legacy trash and slow as fuck with a weird API. tidyverse has data.table and dplyr which are pretty good, not as elegant as polars maybe but you can use normal functions everywhere.

If you're wondering why python seems behind on some things despite being insanely popular, I don't know. Some features in tidyverse only work well because of R language features like delayed evaluation. But also, python seems to have an issue that everyone wants to make a new library, takes it to 0.13.2 and then gets bored and leaves it half finished.

Honestly, the past few months I haven't been getting a lot of responses back from all the job applications I put in. This all started changing with one simple rule -- Simply ignore everyone with an Indian first or last name.

Pretty much anyone I talk to ends up being white for some reason.

A few days ago, something really interesting happened: For the first time, an AI generated a mathematical proof that was not yet known: https://www.erdosproblems.com/728

In most cases where this has happened, it was later discovered that a solution already existed in the literature, but this problem had been formulated incorrectly and was only corrected a few months ago, which means there was no prior literature on it.

Sometimes of you say that AI will be limited by "not being able to create new things," but I think this case shows that it's not quite like that at all, and that most people are still underestimating AIs.

Humans and animals have the ability generate knowledge on their own from interacting with the world, and from the physical structure of their being. Like math, which exists in animals that don't even have the ability to acquire knowledge in any other way. In other words, humans and animals have intelligence.

AI does not generate knowledge on its own and cannot do so, only copying things that other people have written down. As it is unable to naturally generate knowledge, it does not even know these things that it copies, as even copying requires genesis of knowledge. In other words, it does not have intelligence.

Looks like it was still building on prior literature.
If the problem really was corrected only a few months ago, Pomerance may have gotten the solution back in 2017.
