numba#9540 - 2024 Q2-Q4 roadmap gantt chart
numba#9542 - Typed dict throws KeyError when keys contain any UTF-8 character ends with \xb8\x80
- strange bug, is it python? Is it a Numba bug? Does it need to be normalized? This is likely a Numba bug maybe? Probably debuggable.
numba#9544 - Numba 0.60.0rc1 Checklist
numba#9545 - Printing inside a loop prints garbage on parallel=True
- Something not thread safe? Numba's print acquires the GIL, so it can't really be that. Could it be parfors?
numba#9546 - segfault, if @njit is removed
- debugged with lldb -- looks like a Numba bug
numba#9547 - fill 2darray or recarray by fields is 30 times faster than by row.
- Still a bit mysterious
numba#9550 - LLVM IR generation bug when adding metadata for excinfo-related store instruction
- Guilherme looking into this, PR was given
numba#9552 - RAM accumulation in loops using @njit @jitclass
- OP managed to solve issue
llvmlite#1041 - llvmlite 0.43.0rc1 Checklist
llvmlite#1044 - A concrete case for potential ref-pruning chances

numba#9541 - math.nextafter for cuda
- Graham will look at it
numba#9543 - Prevent setting an undeclared attribute in Flags.
numba#9548 - Type system implementation #2: Added magic/dunder method support for add operator on scalar types.
numba#9549 - Make new_style the default error capturing mode
numba#9551 - add emit_excinfo_store_with_md for all excinfo-related store instructions
llvmlite#1042 - Update llvmlite to be compatible with llvm-17
llvmlite#1045 - remove all refops if a basic block is a raising block
