[Numpy-discussion] Re: spam on the mailing lists

On scikit-image, we've moderated *subscriptions*, and only subscribers can post without being moderated, but still spam gets through, because it's hard to vet whether an email address is "genuine", so sometimes we allow the subscription, and immediately receive resulting spam. A "reputation"

[Numpy-discussion] ENH: Extended choose -- add an implementation of the choose function which supports more than 32 choices

Hi folks! The np.choose function raises a ValueError if called with more than 31 choices. This PR adds an alternate implementation np.extended_choose (which uses the base implementation) that supports any number of choices. https://github.com/numpy/numpy/pull/20001 FYI, I needed this

[Numpy-discussion] Re: A bite of C++

A couple of questions from a quick casual reading 1. radixsort (void *start...) Do we really need void*? We don't know the type of start at compile time? 2. reinterpret_cast start (related to #1). 3. reinterpret_cast(malloc(num * sizeof(T))); A C-ism. Would it work to use new T[num]? On

Yes, there is also lots of such spam on other @python.org mailing lists lately. I sent a message to postmaster / python.org about it earlier today. Will get back once there is a response. -- Roman On 29/09/2021 11:28, Andras Deak wrote: On Wed, Sep 29, 2021 at 11:15 AM Ralf Gommers

I'd like to reheat the proposition that we enable discussion feature on GitHub for the repos. Not only this makes things a bit more streamlined (transfer nonbug reports to discussions to handle noise there) but also makes it easier to control the discussions. Moreover since it is GitHub there are

[Numpy-discussion] spam on the mailing lists

Hi All, Today both of the python.org mailing lists I'm subscribed to (numpy and scipy-dev) got the same kind of link shortener spam. I assume all the mailing lists started getting these, and that these won't go away for a while. Is there any way to prevent these, short of moderating emails from
