[#353070] How to fund an open-source project? — Eleanor McHugh <eleanor@...>
In the recent thread on Ruby VMs I mentioned my newly launched RubyGoLightly project [0], currently a bit of non-compilable vapourware forked from Marc-Andre Cournoyer's TinyRb codebase. Whilst Google's public release of Go is directly responsible for my taking the plunge on this, the general idea is something I've discussed privately with a number of people in the community over the past couple of years.

The ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter cannot be fully actualized in finite bytes (and certainly not in floats). Calculations using Math::PI, therefor, unless given a special representation, and the language/library has been built from the ground up to handle calculations with that special representation (and similarly with all other sorts of irrational numbers) will never yield a 100% result. If you need more precision than floating point arithmatic provides, use a specialized language. If you want your values that, for you, are sufficiently close to zero to be zero, then its easy enough to round them. However, that decision ****CANNOT**** be made for everybody using the language, as different people have different expectations of precision, and as has been mentioned before libraries will break.
