We just released SciPy 1.11.0rc1 🎉 Lot of changes in sparse and statistics. Great work from everyone 🙌 Test away!🛠 github.com/scipy/scipy/re…

🌟Announcing "Lineax" - our newest #JAX library! For fast linear solves and least squares. GitHub: github.com/google/lineax * Fast compile time * Fast runtime * Efficient new algorithms (e.g. QR) + existing ones (GMRES, LU, SVD, ...) * Support for general linear operators🔥 1/

Meet our speaker Janos Gabler He will give a talk about Estimagic, a library to solve challenging numerical optimization problems More info and tickets: euroscipy.org/2023/ #EuroScipy2023 #Basel

⭐️The newest Equinox release includes something very special: runtime errors for #JAX!⭐️ And if you set the `EQX_ON_ERROR=breakpoint` environment variable, they will automatically open a debugger on error. Docs: docs.kidger.site/equinox/api/er… GitHub: github.com/patrick-kidger… 1/

🔍 Right now, Tim Mensinger and Janos Gabler are leading a hands-on tutorial, immersing participants in numerical optimization through scipy.optimize and estimagic! Discover core concepts, and apply your learning instantly! 🚀 #NumericalOptimization #EuroSciPy2023

JAX is kinda like rust in that by working around it’s restrictions you find the best way to do things even if you weren’t using it

New blog post on how to use Coiled with scikit-learn for parallel model training on a big VM in the cloud. We use Coiled functions to train a Random Forest on an AWS EC2 instance with 128 cores. medium.com/coiled-hq/redu…

My friend Zolisa is looking for a new job in the US. He has a very strong background in stats and (rare!) is also a very good developer. He’s been contributing to Aesara Devs and related projects, and I have only good things to say about him. RT or DM 🙏 github.com/zoj613

With many 🧩 dropping recently, a more complete picture is emerging of LLMs not as a chatbot, but the kernel process of a new Operating System. E.g. today it orchestrates: - Input & Output across modalities (text, audio, vision) - Code interpreter, ability to write & run

JMP 🧵🎉 What drives maternal labor supply - a key factor for labor market inequalities? Gender role attitudes! We use reduced form and structural methods to show that they are of first-order importance, both directly and through the mediation of policies (w/ Tim Mensinger)

⚡️ Excited to share that I am starting an AI+Education company called Eureka Labs. The announcement: --- We are Eureka Labs and we are building a new kind of school that is AI native. How can we approach an ideal experience for learning something new? For example, in the case

estimagic is now optimagic! 🎉✨ In addition to a new name, we have many new features.🚀 Stay tuned for updates in the next few days. 🔜📅

Currently Janos Gabler giving a talk on optimagic.

Wow, I feel honored!

As promised, here are a few more details about why we renamed estimagic to optimagic and what it means for users: tinyurl.com/optimagic-rena…
