Grumpy: Go running Python

That looks like a super interesting runtime. Seems to target 2.7 only, I hope they're open to supporting 3.x as well.

I'd like to support 3.x at some point. See https://github.com/google/grumpy/issues/1

Have you thought about using type hints to help type inference?

Some work on that is discussed here. I would love a dropbox google colab (though also targeting 3.x :) )

Yes, leveraging type hints for optimization purposes is a long term goal. Thanks for pointing me to that issue, I'll keep an eye on it.

One of the goals of open sourcing was to get feedback and work with outside folks so I'm definitely open to collaboration!

I wonder if they intend to maintain it long term or if they're just going to use it as a bridge while they rewrite things natively in Go.

Seems like a huge effort for the interim... unless they really need interoperability between Python and Go during the switch.
