Description
Hi,
I am using LightFM with Python 3.12.4.
I can use `loss='logistic'` without any issue, but when I try to use `loss='warp'` or `loss='bpr'`, it fails.
I got silently stopped
To try to fix it, I installed the latest version from GitHub using:
```
pip install git+[https://github.com/daviddavo/lightfm](https://github.com/daviddavo/lightfm)
```
However, the problem persists.
Could you please advise how to properly enable WARP and BPR losses in this setup?
Environment:
- Python 3.12.4
- LightFM unknown version
- OS: Windows 11
Thanks!
```

Research direction
Start by reproducing LightFM .fit() with loss='warp' and loss='bpr' on Python 3.12.4 and Windows 11, recording the LightFM version and the exact behavior or output. Compare this with loss='logistic'; done means the failure is reproducible and its cause or a verified fix is documented.
