  • https://github.com/miking-lang/miking/pull/900
    • Add a named variable for the magic constant 4. Then we like.
  • https://github.com/miking-lang/miking/pull/902
    • We like, but there is a discussion to be had how we should treat Ref and Symbol compared to Int, Float, etc. Should we have a TySymbol AST node or should all be created as TyCon? Add it as a separate issue.
  • https://github.com/miking-lang/miking/pull/901
    • (Includes all the PRs above)
    • Now there is a generate-utest.mc, in addition to utest-generate.mc. Should aim to remove utest-generate.mc in the future when we can.
    • On a separate note, would also be good to have a test that checks that utest are actually running.
    • Viktor need to remove some debugging things, then we like.
  • https://github.com/miking-lang/miking-dppl/pull/192
    • We discussed this PR, but there are still things to be done. Will present again at a later date when it is ready.

Pull Requests

• Tim: https://github.com/miking-lang/miking-dppl/pull/191
  • Implement fallback to prior distributino if no explicit drift-kernel is supported. Add a test that is fast and included in normal test suite, but is much less precise. Also fix Oscar's comment. Then we like.
• Oscar: https://github.com/miking-lang/miking/pull/896
  • We like

Discussions Proposal: remove tensors as a built-in part of the language. Refactor or remove dependent code, primarily shifting to use externals that implement vectors and matrixes directly. Oscar can write that library.
