Does it affect this code somehow? |
I think it would. |
@ferrine it's not obvious to me that it will affect that code, but the tests will let us know for sure. I certainly expect some to fail, and will also be adding a few new ones before merging. |
this line assumes old length https://github.com/pymc-devs/pymc3/blob/master/pymc3/variational/approximations.py#L311 |
Thanks for the heads up, that one's a simple enough change, at least. I'll wait to see how many other places there are that depend on the old |
Not sure what we should do here, all options I can see are a bit strange.
I think the first one might be a good compromise between reasonable behaviour and backward compatibility. |
@aseyboldt I agree. I mostly want to see which tests this approach breaks. After trying the third option, which seems to break many parts of the code base, I'm inclined to go with the first, although it is a bit unsatisfying. |
Hm, yeah, first option seems the most realistic. |
I vote for the third |
Any updates on this? We still haven't decided which way we'd like to go, right? |
@aseyboldt this got lost in my vacation :|. I think we should go with the first option. Will try to get a new PR up in the next few days. |
@AustinRochford any progress? Would be great to fix this before 3.2 ;-) |
Yes it would. Unfortunately no progress yet, but I'll see about putting something together tonight. |
