Well, two ways. Honestly I think this library has been superceded by [apache datasketches](https://github.com/techascent/tech.ml.dataset/blob/master/project.clj#L33). What we did before I started work with datasketches was I patched the library and [released...

I don't think printing the metadata should be the default. The example in zulip had a relatively small lookup table but when you have, say 100 items in the lookup...

I think there are two unresolved issues so far: 1. How to handle missing values. 2. How to handle columns with 1000+ items in them which are quite common.

So, I think large columns we have to leave as is. But I single line reader-safe representation is totally reasonable and in fact I now think that literally everything in...

Let's split this up. First is the change in format for existing columns. Reader literals are another issue altogether. I also think that columns should display some number of begin...

Agreed it is a bug completely. A simple fix would be to use a bitmap or set to note any existing values. And failing when incomplete is also a great...

I think error on partial specification is also a completely reasonable pathway.

Yes - use the map constructor form - or use empty container of target datatype - will have example forthcoming.

The only thing that will work is to create an empty container of the target datatype - ```clojure user> (require '[tech.v3.datatype :as dt]) nil user> (ds/new-column :a (dt/make-reader :float32 0...

Closing this for now. This isn't clearly an issue - boolean is the root of the type hierarchy.
