marimo has made development FUN again for me. From the way I can use uv to manage my packages using the ui ( left julia because of that issue) to the reactive nature of the cells ( goodbye jupyter) it's a wonderful experience. It's fast moving and the community is wonderful. To have another lakehouse with such ease of use is another example of it's attraction. WELL DONE marimo j215

Godbolt is a legend and I don't care what the others say. I believe him when he said he was "just helping" that sheep through the hedge. Well deserved praise Matty-poo and well written article.

Outstanding!!! Spent some time in the valley in the 90's. Tom Perkins was our Chairman and Ceo so I learnt a LOT. One of the takeaways was that innovation starts with an itch you want to scratch, to KNOW that your idea is better than the others. Doesn't matter if you are delusional, the market will set you right either way. WELL DONE!!! taking this step and I wish you all the best for the future. I'll pass the message onto my chums.

I did, to highlight the fact that it does more than you observed.

this was a real pleasure to read. I had just made my coffee and saw the title. I liked the way that the author followed the thought process you would go through AND took the time to find the actual evidence to prove or disprove a theory. Well done! I'm sending it to my colleagues as, given our Edward Debono training, a brain refresh. Thanks so much for posting

Hi there I am mrsofty, the OP. I just want to point out that the question is

" I'd be interested in anyone else who are making the move and what field they are in?"

I phrased it like that to attempt to keep it to simple. We have made the decision based on 6 months of internal discussion, compiler and hardware expert input and watching the roll out of Mojo chatter. I just wanted to clear that up.

we have, as soon as it was available. Julia is making great strides in all areas. We prefer to move on.

Yes, that's when it started. Then we sent some people to Juliacon '23 to get a feel for the future. Julia is a fine language, just not for us given the reasons in the OP.

We have been tracking mojo since 2020 but wanted to wait for a release date before making the change. Dr Lattner has a reputation of producing commercial quality work and we trust that. Also, because our code base is modular by design ( Dr Jim Gray was our mentor), and bound together by ipms ( any transport will do), we can make the conversion very quickly. As to funding it's mostly us. We have done reasonably well in financial trading augmentation approaches and so the funding is internal. We love writing small personal scripts in any language and much of our work product has been small and reactive, I suppose you could call them scipts. I would point out that NONE of this is relevant to my OP question.

Sorry, missed this as we're in meetings this week. So to answer your question.

We use zeroMQ to move data around so to get it into a python script is very easy for us. We "were" going to create a dash/plotly app to consume the data stream and create a trading augmentation tool as we find dash a pleasure to work with. We also find that it's very well supported using videos so not even we ( non web developers) can mess it up. We adhere to the Tufte approach to graphical representation of complex data sets and python allows us to take a minimalist approach to doing that.

We are also discussing the implementation of async components in a python specific hosting company that seems to address the same market as GENIE. That would give us the GUI approach should we chose to use it. We have experienced some problems with streaming data into Stipple but I would expect that they will provide a MWE that we can modify. I have high hopes for the GENIE team, they seem like excellent people.

All that said we are progressing out Carbon discussions with various people. In Chicago we are very lucky that we have a deep pool of people skilled at kernel latency avoidance, this helps us consider what we can expect from Carbon and if there are any advantages to what we want to achieve.

I hope this answers your question.
