These books are what i would consider the best books for self-study. (I have gone through many textbooks after i went back to school to study statistics.)

• Real Analysis: A Long-Form Mathematics Textbook

• Proofs: A Long-Form Mathematics Textbook

• Mathematical Logic Through Python

• A Course in Calculus and Real Analysis

• A Course in Multivariable Calculus and Analysis

• Differential Equations With Applications and Historical Notes

• Probability and Random Processes (Grimmet)

• Probability Through Problems

• Fifty Challenging Problems in Probability with Solutions

• The Simple and Infinite Joy of Mathematical Statistics

• An Introduction to Error Analysis

Not really gatekeeping, but as someone who likes to self-study, not having solutions is very annoying.

> everything is compute.

Isnt this the problem OP is referring to? If everything is compute then no useful distinction can be made.

The first paper in the literature review and its citations argue how popular tv shows like "The Twilight Diaries" and "Riverdale" normalize rape and violence against women, I can't take it seriously.

A great book by one of the auhors of HtDP is DCIC and it uses a programmimg language called Pyret and chapter 3 covers a transition from pyret to python.

Assuming that HumanEval is a good benchmark (it's not) and assuming you can naively scale under fat-tails (you can't) then according to OpenAI's own gpt4 report (someone did the math on hn/reddit where they reproduced the curve but i can't find the link) at 100x the training cost of gpt4 you will still have a 15% error rate on medium difficulty tasks.

Fixed it, i meant that both of the books mentioned are written by Harry Percival (and the 2nd was written as a sequel) .

I'm guessing this was submitted after the "Ask HN" about leveling up to a production python programmer and i'm surprised no one mentioned these books:

1. Test-Driven Development with Python

2. Architecture Patterns with Python

The 2nd one is the closest you're gonna get to a production-grade tutorial book.

According to this video, setting it up and running the games shouldn't be a bottleneck, but performance isn't going to be very good. He's using the M2 pro and you can still see/feel the slowdown.
