Just had an Oh My F***ing Gosh #Jupyter #Python moment:

Starting to think of demo notebooks and hacked together a "show_page()" function to display an iframe with a webpage in it.

I *thought* I was just fetching and showing rendered HTML and was fine with that.

Then I clicked the home link and discover that I'm actually embedding live little web windows in my notebooks....

Wait, What, Wow How?

Never knew ipthon.display was that friggin awesome and cool.

#iden Quick-start verified: Creating and sourcing the #python and #rust virtual environments to compile and install, generating an identity, starting the pad manager, and how to import the library in a #jupyter notebook ready to write and read and poke at the test node.

This now demands a possibly hour long cleaning and re-arranging of the desk so my external monitor can return to proper portrait orientation for #Jupyter notebooks instead of increasingly strange #YouTube playlists.

Which will probably turn into a first day of spring cleaning - it *might* be safe to put my plants outside now at which point I have roughly 200% more space that demands to be cleaned.

Thanks for your work on a tooling for "the art of doing science", and for going to great length for making it accessible to others. I'll give it a try!

A humble suggestion: since you're writing about your work on a social media without any automated relevance rating and with limited search features, it's advisable to use a salient picture, and hashtags, e.g., the ones below.

Debugging a complex Python library via a Jupyter notebook is unfairly good tech, yinz.

Now that I've tried it, I can't go back.

My favorite part of this exercise?

Testing the fix in-place by copying the broken method out of the class, editing it, monkey-patching it back into the class definition, and then re-running the small verification setup I threw together in Jupyter. Newly-created class instances are using the new method and the flow goes from "Busted" to "Working."

(Plus, Jupyter supports matplotlib output, which is huge when what I'm debugging is fundamentally geometric in nature).

Following up on my work with trying to make Python development more interactive with REPL Driven Development (previously posted article "Are we there yet?").

I recorded a very much improvised video 😅

I demo the setup and the workflow. Starting up a Jupyter kernel, connecting to it from my code editor, and modifying a running program.

About 13 minutes:

I am really looking forward to a time when scientific data analysis is less of a constant fuckaround and fight with technical bullshit. I'd *really* like

- natively supporting complex numbers
- and to natively support physical units ( is great on its own but the integrations leave a LOT to be desired)
- notebooks to suck less (crashes, glitches, widget plots not saved statically, an effing BUILTIN formatter, etc.)
- proper data pipeline systems
...

Excited to announce the release of the second cat2cloud introductory video! 🥳
Our software optimises file transfer ⚡ and access for server-hosted data 📅 . cat2cloud's compression-first framework enables users to minimise transfer times and storage requirements 🗜️.

In this video, you can see how easy and quick it is to manage file storage using the ubiquitous jupyter notebook format 🐍 !

📋 if you do not have a place to install and run a #jupyter, other options are available for free online.

I have already written about them to death in my books on quantitative research methods and advanced data analysis. Each of these books is available here: datatofu.wordpress.com/#DIY

I also mention them in my other books, so, honestly speaking, you are welcome to browse around.

#python is an interpreted language. The Python interpreter runs a program by executing one statement at a time. The standard interactive Python interpreter can be invoked on the command line with the python command

data analysis or scientific computing make use of IPython, an enhanced Python interpreter, or #jupyter notebooks, web-based code notebooks originally created within the IPython project.

It is my first time dealing with Jupyter notebooks (for uni) and I am liking them a lot.

I get why every non-coputertoucher scientist uses them. It is also basically literate programming, which is cool.

OTOH, I hate dealing with Python. Absolute hell, I am about to boot a fucking container just to blast it into the Sun once I'm done.
