Show HN: A way to share your Jupyter Notebooks
I made a small product that facilitates sharing Jupyter Notebooks.

Why:

- ipynb files can get pretty large, which git doesn't handle well, and it affects the dev experience

- organizations don't give everyone access to their version control platform of choice (e.g. GitHub) for security reasons

- several open source tools ask for your notebook to be accessible publicly, which is a no-go for most organizations

- searching for notebooks on a system like Google Drive, Slack, etc, is a PITA

Features:

- Google and Microsoft SSO out of the box, it's 2024

- Python SDK/CLI so you can upload notebooks, can build a small internal wrapper, but you can also upload via the UI

- You can invite anyone to your organization for private notebook sharing, or you can generate a temporarily public URI to a notebook

Pricing:

- priced to complexity, solving an itch mostly rather than a huge issue

- $10/month or $100/year per organization

- 7 day free trial

Potential next steps:

- private/air-gapped deployment through the GCP Marketplace or something like that

- more search features

- comments/threads like Google Docs

- summarization

I am building this on my own with the goal of helping organizations manage their notebooks more easily. Would love to hear your feedback!
>Kaiser emails you the DICOM medical images along with an app for reading them. Most hospitals offer this

Not in my country. Due to strong data protection regulations most radiology shops don't Email the x-ray files to you. They either send it directly to your GP via the official government mandated channel, or they hand it to you physically in print or disc but never email due to the chance of not arriving to its destination or worse, going to someone else due to human or technical errors.

>The vast majority of PCs and laptops don't come with optical drives and that's been the case for many years now.

That's irelevant because they're not made for you to read them at home but for your doctor or other healthcare facilities to read them, and all these businesses have disc drives on premises and will most likely do so for decades
> The contribution graph would suggest otherwise

The contribution graph says precisely what I claimed.

> Then what is the selling point of that, if you say crucial features are not closed-sourced and gated behind costly licensing

Each vendor can do what they want. As I have already said twice, some vendors give away their inhouse-built JVM/JDK and only charge for support, some charge to use it at all, and some just give it away entirely for free. Motivations for each vary by company.

The point is, you have a ton of choice within the JVM ecosystem. You have 1 choice for .NET... the ecosystem and community are not the same. The JVM ecosystem and community are vastly better by any measurement.

C# developer's only valid criticisms are levied at the Java language - failing to realize the slow development pace is deliberate and prevents people from having to rewrite everything every couple years...

Despite that, there are many languages that run on the JVM - so you don't even need to use Java to experience the greatness of the JVM ecosystem and community.
If you could get all cities to build more housing simultaneously then you’d be in great shape. The question is: how do you do that? Most of the biggest problems facing humanity are coordination problems. The answer to all these problems can’t be “everyone should just do X.”

In reality, your best hope is to get one city to build a lot of housing. Then everyone moves there and we’re all unhappy.

This, by the way, is the reason homelessness is so bad in San Francisco despite their government spending enormous amounts of money fighting homelessness. All the other cities in the US sent all their homeless people to SF!
Considering the launch tempo that NASA had signed up for, and was then currently failing at? Yes, a single 'no-go' on the cert chain could easily result in someone being shunted into professional obscurity thereafter.
Most likely for the same reason that so many people seem to think they need a vector-specific database and a framework like langchain to build any type of GenAI-enabled application... the content marketing is working.
It counts as ecological collapse, but that's not being discussed here, but whether the island became destitute, triggering population collapse.

Imagine paving over the entire Amazon and replacing it with monocrop greenhouses. It would be massive ecological collapse, but in terms of producing food calories for humans it might become more productive.
I'm using a Pixel 6a with GrapheneOS for about 18 months now. Love it. No need to login to Google. Putting GrapheneOS on the phone took 5 minutes.
> You cannot use proprietary code in an open source project, and the README says you can. That is fundamentally dishonest.

That doesn't make any sense. There's plenty of open-source Windows/Mac apps, but they don't give you access to Windows/Mac OS itself.
It seems like economic opportunities in Australia vs. New Zealand is a main driving factor.
Barcelona the metropolitan area has around 3.5 million IIRC. It's the province has 5.3M.

The 15k new properties were only built in Barcelona? How many were built in the metropolis area?

It's obvious that more housing is needed, but freeing up housing in the city, potentially close to the center, is still a move that might make the city more livable as opposed to building something new in the outskirts.
> everyone wants to be the last person allowed to move in

This is uncharitable. What everybody wants is for the place they call home, either by inheritance or hard work, to not be harmed by overdevelopment. People will have varyingly (un)reasonable opinions on what "over" means, but even a place with zero development has new residents - people do not live in one place forever, nor do they live forever.
> In context, it sounds like you think that the genocide of indigenous peoples was totally worth it for European nations and that callous lack of concern for human life and suffering is an example to be followed by modern space programs.

Can you provide a quote of where I said this is an example to be followed"? (This is a rhetorical question: I know you can't because I said nothing remotely akin to that.)

> I'd like to cut you the benefit of the doubt and assume that's not what you meant; if that's the case, please clarify.

Sure, to clarify: I meant precisely what I said. I did not mean any of the completely different nonsense you decided to suggest I was actually saying.

If you see "colonization benefited the people doing the colonizing" and interpret it as "colonization is an example to be followed", that's entirely something wrong with your reading comprehension.

You're not "cutting me some slack" by putting words in my mouth and then saying "but maaybe didn't mean that", and it's incredibly dishonesty and shitty of you to pretend you are.
This culture of degrees as attainments is not good. It's supposed to be training for a productive research career but when some unlikely person collects the degree it's treated like a medal. The professor's time was wasted.

> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LOVEINT

We have almost a million people holding a TS or higher clearance, and have on average one incident a year of someone attempting to spy on a spouse or love interest, to which they get rolled up in their regular poly. So basically not a problem at all.

I never denied that the IC spies on foreign governments and terror organizations. In fact, we are really fucking good at it. You can't query or access domestic communications or those of USPER without review by the FISA courts and high level approval.

What I couldn't see, or what wasn't mentioned, is the imminent collapse of the Gulf Stream.
I had read that this would paradoxically lead to a "new ice age" for Western and Northern Europe in the next 100 years.
Is this scenario ruled out by science after all, or is it simply not taken into account here?
> people who are in the biggest house they are likely to own and expect to downsize

That's covered by the case of "property values go down everywhere"; you only have a problem if your property value goes down but the value of property you want to buy doesn't.
What is "better software" though?

On one hand you have guys like the OpenBSD team that work on Mostly Boring Things and making serious inroads at improving software quality of Mostly Boring Components that power the hidden bits of the Internet that go relatively unnoticed.

On the other hand, you have "improvements" from Apple and everyone else that involve an ever-changing shell game of moving around UI widgets perpetuated by UI designers on hallucinogens.

Are these browsers like Chrome that are elaborate ad dispensing machines really improvements from the browsers of yore? IE 4 may have sucked by modern standards but it also didn't forward every URL I visit to Google.

I've been around since the beginnings of the WWW and it's reached the point where I am struggling to understand how to navigate these software "improvements". For the first time I have felt like my elderly parents using technology. I haven't gotten stupider; the software has become more difficult to use. It has now become some sort of abstract art rather than a tool for technologists.
I think you went off-topic pretty far. Focusing on Massachusetts for a CA class action seems strange and flawed.

Additionally, everything I've mentioned was in place before this suit. So, the suit pretending these things do not exist is disingenuous.

You also don't fully understand what you are quoting. 24-hour has nothing to do with service manuals; it has to do with the "enterprise" service software.

It has even happened to Buffet. Regarding the sale of his shares in Paramount:

“Actually, owning Paramount made me think even deeper, but I certainly looked harder about the whole question of what people do with their leisure time and what the governing principles are of running an entertainment business of any sort, whether it’s sports or movies or whatever it might be,” Buffett said. “I think I’m smarter now than I was a couple years ago, but I also think I’m poorer because I acquired the knowledge in the manner I did.” ← great quote

Thank you for your link to a page with code. I motivated me to explore the site further, try alternate translation options, and write an intro comment above.

I don't expect this to hold true once Waymo become generally available, alas.
It is surprising every time you see a non-profit behave exactly like a for-profit. You'd think there would be some difference, but no apparently we see there is basically none.

At least I have never seen a non-profit acquihire before.
spreadsheet rant, no suggested alternatives, kind of just 99% rant.
Your entire comment is based on that premise. If you gave folks the benefit of "not aligning with the majoritarian or stereotypical opinion" you wouldn't feel the way that you've expressed.
I've been living in Barcelona for a long time. The mayor is very, very cozy with the hotel industry, which is very much effected by tourist apartments and Airbnb. And he will most likely be out of power in 3 years, so won't actually have to see this through and is just doing this to make himself look good with the many citizens who believe we have too many tourist.
Why not just think of a degree as a certification of completion of a sequence of courses and tasks, which teach skills, and whose completion can be verified?
Thanks! That's what I am aiming for. Wondering which android fork is more stable these days.
I was using Elastic Container Service (ECS) like I mentioned in my other comment. I first used it 3 years ago when it was still evolving, and in 2023 they turned off their launch configuration portion in favor of launch templates. I can't remember the exact details, but I think this covers it:

https://sinovi.uk/articles/amazon-ec2-launch-configurations-...

My complaint is that all service providers should provide a migration wizard to convert to and from configurations that do basically the same thing.

Frameworks like Laravel emphasize the importance of migrations for database schemas:

https://laravel.com/docs/migrations

I use that concept constantly in my work for backwards compatibility, but basically never see it from service providers, which I find sad and somewhat irresponsible or at least discourteous.
Tourism has its uses, and is a service industry like most modern country industries including most "productive" ones.
I was part of OSCSS. I come from rural Ontario and this was the first time I was really exposed to other people with the hacker ethos. Tried to bootstrap a company with a friend met at the school but two 18 year olds trying to partner with enterprises went as well as you would expect. Did not know YC was a thing until a couple of years later.
Loaded question
How about, hear me out for a sec, you email/file-share the data off the disc to the doctor abroad in those cases when you need to. Mind-blowing, right?

If it's indeed a life saving situation as you say, a doctor will have to do scans there and not wait to receive possibly outdated imaging data from another country

Also, no hospital in my country is just gonna release my private medical records on the spot because a doctor from another country called and told them to. There's some formal paperwork that needs to be signed by the pacient and if you're in a coma then you can't sign it and if it's an emergency you don't have time for that whole process so they'll have to perform the scans there.

The case of having to quickly send/receive pacient data to or from doctors abroad is not something most public hospitals in my country are prepped for not will they since it's super niche case and in case of emergency they'll do the scans on the spot.
Could have spent that time more wisely by making a better graph that accounts for this…
Indeed, that's the whole point of smell: detecting interesting or harmful things at low concentrations.
That depends on the region. In many places they're based on property value, and in many of those places if your property value goes down you can apply to have your home re-assessed and get taxed according to the new value. (Conversely, if your property values go up your property taxes may go up accordingly, which can in some cases take people's homes from affordable to not affordable.)
It helps that staff are participating in these programs full-time, no other duties required.

A story I've heard first hand is that after the program, department staff can discuss diplomacy in the target language, but struggled to order a coffee!

If nobody can afford it, then it's not on offer.
"Used to" is sort of an overstatement, IMO. The use of Taylor series here is remarkable because they need to generate coefficients on the fly. Chebyshev and Remez have been around for quite a long time, since the early 1930's, and people doing numerics in a serious fashion have generally used them for polynomial approximation since the birth of computers (except in unique circumstances like the paper you cited).

The new engineering that has come recently with Sollya and similar solvers is explicit design around floating point operations. Chebyshev and Remez use the real numbers, but Sollya uses floats in its minimax function, and the coefficients you get are actually somewhat different due to rounding. Fast LP solvers have also enabled this approach more generally.
3.92V is very conservative, that is a good voltage for long term storage even. It should be safe to charge to 4.05-4.10V regularly.

I think OpenAI also realized they're an AI major without a dance partner, when it comes to context.

Google (Android, Gmail, Maps, G Office), Apple (iPhone, Mail, Maps, Productivity), Microsoft (Office365, Windows, XBox).

In terms of moat and lock-in, that leaves OpenAI vulnerable to last mile customer hijacking.
That seems like a very strange opinion... "the professor's time was wasted"?? The pursuit of education (and often degrees) is meaningful on a personal level. A productive research career is simply one of infinitely many paths that a person could choose to take.
to give some examples:

- you can trade crypto 24/7, this sounds obvious but on the other hand side this also means, there is no pre-market trading and all the obscure things attacked to it

- before blocks are being created, transactions are usually collected in so called mempools. (Way oversimplified) block proposers or miners, who are selected to create the next block, can choose which transactions to include, as space is limited. They can also determine the order of these transactions. All of this is publicly visible and opens a lot of opportunities to harvest slippage etc. (lookup MEV-bots)

- generally speaking, there is no robin hood or other intermediary, that can block you from trading

- in crypto, you essentially have access to all available financial products without any barriers to entry compared to traditional finance

it looks like this repository is using Binance APIs for trading. So my statements are no entirely true for this case. But you can use trading bots like this on decentralized exchanges or DeFi products like curve finance without being dependent of an intermediary

I really don't miss the disastrous random access latency of optical media, nor the fear of scratching a favorite game up and potentially ruining it forever (or a friend doing the same to a game I'd lent them).

But what they definitely had going for them is that they were dirt cheap. Nobody thought twice to burn a CD with some photos for their friends; USB thumb drives are of course much faster and higher capacity, but also not something you'd gladly part with several times a month.

Another big advantage that media-based software (like console video games) had in pre-Internet times was that it was mostly self-contained. These days, consoles might still support physical media, but they serves more as DRM authentication tokens; once you insert a disk or cartridge, it's minutes of installation to hard disk and potentially hours of fetching updates from the Internet.

That's really less of a feature of disks though, and more about the practical inability to patch software once it was shipped. That definitely made QA a lot more thorough than it is today.
I mainly agree although I think that the trough of despair often comes after an initial bump. At first when designing the new system, you pluck the low hanging fruit of improvement for a small subset of the system. There is no dip yet -- things are just getting better. But when you start migrating the rest of the system, you inevitably do hit that dip and descend into the trough of despair before climbing back out.

The art is to design things in such a way so that a minimum amount of time is spent in the trough.
Wait... global warming... shakes fist at the future
The issue isn’t writing the code. It’s everything that comes after in terms of user support. The systems are relatively easy to integrate with libraries or products like Auth0.
What is an example of the "something else"?

Everything works better if you combine it with an unnamed, unknown thing that makes it betters. It's a nonsense assertion.
Is that a negative of Waymo or a negative of the aggressive/illegal way many humans drive? My assumption is the anecdotal speed difference you notice is Waymos actually following the speed limit, and I imagine Waymo isn't really looking to program their cars to break the law while they're trying to expand their ability to operate.
I travel abroad frequently and am an EU citizen. Most pharma research is not funded by the government, in Europe or the US. The EU free rides off of American drug R&D, this is well-studied.

No need to be snarky and sarcastic just because you are having trouble explaining your point.

I think the only way to avoid race to the bottom is to offer relatively high end services, competing on price is a recipe for disaster.

We do this using CRIU right now! https://github.com/cedana/cedana

In fact one of our customer's use cases is exactly what you describe, allowing users to "hibernate" container workspaces.
Then maybe don't build a spyware API? It's the same problem as screen-recording; you can design it to respect user privacy and prompt the user before turning on. You don't have to make it a matter of implicit trust if you design it well, and we should expect these sorts of private data APIs to be designed well and respect our agency.

If you don't look at Recall and Apple Intelligence with the same suspicion, you're stupid. Currently they are literally the same product, rebranded and marketed to different users. Two data pipes leading to one company's pool. But Apple's pipe is safer because... they have more "privacy trust" and Twitter says their whitepaper looks secure. You're being robbed in plain daylight and defending the robber; the implications of both features are disastrous.
Amazing. Thanks! Will give that a shot
I was this person for my dad's care, heading back to Canada from California after his third ambulance ride to the hospital and subsequent discharge a few hours later. Turns out his first doctor at the ER had correctly identified the life-threatening condition he had developed, and when the shift changed the new physician ignored the handoff instructions and sent him home. If I hadn't pushed to get the ER to look again he would be dead now. I think the syndrome described is real, and enough doctors are bad enough at practicing medicine that it saves lives.
While science is important and someone has to do it, I don't think it is as intellectually rewarding as hobby/indie computer programming.

Maybe trying to get students interested in science instead of computer programming is problematic for this reason?
