@altavir I am going to resume my use case for kmath hopefully this week. I kind of want to learn how to build MIP solvers from scratch (minus the matrix work which kmath will do) so I can create hybrid optimization models at work. I've got a massive, critical project at work using simulated annealing, and it seems to work great. But I want to explore linear/integer programming solutions and see if I can avoid 3rd party solvers by using my own heuristics and hybrid models.

OK. I also have two articles to rewrite and critical project with visualization, but I plan to return to kmath hopefully next week. I need to rewrite parts of linear algebra anyway.

I also really want to finish what I've started with kotlin-statistics.

That'd be awesome to keep having your help. Normally I'm not this sporadic with involvement. I've just got some OReilly projects to finish and I'm getting married in August. Plus I've got a crazy optimization project at work and I'm busy analyzing the impact of the algorithm I built with the rest of my team.

I also want to spend more time on this project, but I have three conference in two months: two to attend (both with reports about kotlin) and one to organize, two articles to write, one urgent project to finish and a laboratory to administrate. Sadly kmath is on the low priority comparing to all that. Also I decided to spend some time on a very ambitious project of mine - DataForge.
