🚀 Announcing: ✨`patdb`✨! A fast, pretty, TUI/REPL debugger for Python. (Not a database!😄) Think stdlib pdb, but with... - Syntax highlighting - re-raised+grouped exceptions - robust to async/threading/multiprocessing - ... ! > pip install patdb GitHub: github.com/patrick-kidg... 1/3

🔥 Time for my first bioML blog post! This one is for all the folks getting into ML-for-protein-design. ✨ "Just know stuff, proteinML edition" kidger.site/thoughts/jus... This is intended as a curriculum-with-context, as a starting point for the field. 1/2

I also went back and took at look at one of the very early READMEs. I think we've stayed true to these goals! (Also included: Equinox started out as a 'tech demo'. I had to procrastinate from real work somehow, after all. 😄)

This is half tech-demo, half neural network library.

Equinox in brief

The design goals for Equinox were that it must be:

- as minimal as possible, and use no behind-the-scenes magic;
- of functional style, working with existing JAX operations like jax.jit without difficulty;
- offer a PyTorch-like class-based syntax to build models.

Equinox is a library, not a framework. It is not a wrapper around JAX, like many neural network libraries are.

🚀 I just spotted that we passed a really cool milestone: Equinox is now used by over 1k projects on GitHub. *And* we actually also just passed 1k commits as well.🎉 (github.com/patrick-kidg...)
