This month has been packed with 🔥 technical insights. Evan Ovadia’s talk on the hidden superpowers of linear types revealed how they help with inconsistent data, forgotten function calls, and more. Meanwhile, Ash Vardanian’s blog post, featuring Chris Lattner, Daniel Lemire, and Evan Ovadia, deep dived into SIMD parallelism, showing how modern CPUs can unleash GPU-like performance.

The community matched this energy with projects like a new Mojo web framework, a set of Mojo utils for using the BlueSky API, and updates to Mojo By Example, while our meetings highlighted exciting topics like Mojo game development and NuMojo.
