Python tooling could be much, much faster. To prove it, I'm releasing ruff, an extremely fast Python linter, written in Rust. ruff is 10-100x faster than existing solutions. It lints the entire CPython codebase in < 500ms. Try it! (`pip install ruff`) github.com/charliermarsh/…

PyMC v4 is now the default in colab. Welcome to the future of statistical computation colab.research.google.com

Try out truncated distributions in the newly released PyMC 4.2.0!

"This is the first algorithm [..] where there is a clear incentive for it to be used in modern machine learning, but there is a fundamental reason why common machine learning frameworks like Jax and Tensorflow will not be able to treat them optimally." stochasticlifestyle.com/useful-algorit…

Join our next panel discussion as we discuss IRT (Item Response Theory), GRM (Graded Response Model) and the advantages to using the Bayesian approach. 🗓️: Wed, October 26,2022 ⏰: 12pm ET/16:00 UTC 👤: Thomas Wiecki, Morgan Pihl 🐘@[email protected],@CaprettoTomas meetup.com/pymc-labs-onli… #bayesian #PyMC

We are looking for folks like you to share your knowledge, best practices, or tricks with the wider PyMC community 📣 🥇 First-time speakers are encouraged. 👀The review process will be double-blind. Review all the details here: pymcon.com/cfp.

PyMC is Forking Aesara to PyTensor. PyTensor will allow for new features such as labeled arrays, as well as speed up development and streamline the PyMC codebase and user experience. Full announcement: pymc.io/blog/pytensor_… PyTensor code: github.com/pymc-devs/pyte…

Does your (EU) country attract or lose top researchers? AT, CH attract a lot. FR, DE, BE, ES are open places: as many leave as arrive. IE is a closed system. Italy, there is something very wrong: *very* few come, many go. Plot made with European Research Council (ERC) data.
