This Wednesday, I’ll be giving a presentation about differentiable Swift at PassiveLogic’s Salt Lake City office for the Utah Swift Developers Meetup: https://t.co/MXjWuaHKO8

[PassiveLogic @passivelogic]

Looking for plans for this Wednesday evening? Why not spend it learning w @bradlarson?
Prior to PassiveLogic he was a member of the Swift for TensorFlow team at Google where differentiable @ServerSideSwift was originally developed.

We grew two sets of petunias this year. The ones with the pink flowers wilted early and never came back. The purple petunias struggled initially, but came back strong and bloomed longer than anyone expected. The last purple flower petals just fell. https://t.co/4BdmHlaRuj

Olive Pitt Larson peacefully crossed the rainbow bridge this morning. She was surrounded by her family. She fought until the end. Now her watch is ended. Rest peacefully little werewolf.

Delighted to share #stablediffusion with Core ML on Apple Silicon built on top of @huggingface diffusers! 🧵

Where’s the Swift project going in 2023? @pathofshrines looks ahead with a summary from across the community. https://t.co/0HF2Yg2zsK

[Clive Thompson @pomeranian99]

Cool project -- @stackoverflow and @KiwixOffline have created an offline version of Stack Overflow, so coders without reliable Internet access can use it: https://t.co/3dFIvPEXtc

Use cases so far:
- prisoners learning programming
- South Pole researchers
- students in Cameroon

[Kerbal Space Program @KerbalSpaceP]

Kerbonauts! We are excited to announce the release date of Kerbal Space Program 2, which will be in Early Access on February 24th '23. Check out the full Feature Video on YouTube to learn more about KSP2 in Early Access.💚An extended Q & A and Roadmap can be found on our website

Wow, quite the story. 👇🏻👇🏻

Founding Arxiv is apparently not good for your academic career.

Good evidence that improving how science works is insufficiently incentivized.

[Brad Larson @bradlarson]

My team at PassiveLogic is hiring compiler engineers with LLVM familiarity to help us work on differentiable Swift and other projects: https://t.co/iFUhhdHT4q . Fully remote, multiple experience levels, not limited to the US.

I posted a small update in the Swift forums describing some of the recent work on differentiable Swift and keypath traversal performance: https://t.co/nyCbtkCCHe

[Yuta Saito @kateinoigakukun]

I just noticed that flowkey, a popular piano lesson app, has officially released a SwiftWasm-based web app!
They said, "We were able to use 100% of our mobile app's business logic for the most essential part of our app" 🥳

Gather round, Twitter folks, it's time for our beloved
**Alice's adventures in a differentiable wonderland**, our magical tour of autodiff and backpropagation. 🔥

Jay is a coworker of mine, and he's been doing impressive things with GraphQL in our Swift-based autonomous control software:

[Konrad ‘ktoso’ Malawski 🐟🏴‍☠️🇺🇦 @ktosopl]

We're happy to announce the the #graphql #swift library entering official SSWG review! Maturity review helps users be confident in libraries and helps the longlevity of the server ecosystem.

Thank you Jay for the proposal!

A team I work with at @PassiveLogic is actively searching for iOS developers to work on 3-D building scanning and Bluetooth LE communication to sensors. The company is based in Salt Lake City, but remote-friendly. Please feel free to apply here: https://t.co/YoDgMj3RfK
