Really happy to hear that this isn't new – with citations. I am a fan of rain :) Thank you for the references. I'm looking to build a real production system that could be used by scientists and data practitioners, grounded in a academic perspective. So, all this prior art is very helpful.

I'm really curious to know what the limits are! If you have a good understanding of these, I'd love to hear your perspective. I do think it's valuable to be able to spill out to the array paradigm, and that a project like Xarray-SQL lets users choose the best tool for the job.

I am a fan of Differential Dataflow, though I don't know the system too well. I'll take a closer look when I can.

I would have had the same gut reaction as you lol.

You’re spot on. I think that SQL, as a data oriented and logic PL, might be ideal for writing tensor programs.

In cases like these, I use multiple personas in Chrome (I think Firefox has user profiles) so I can log into my personal accounts on my work computer while still keeping everything compartmentalized.
