Yeah, the Rummo Gluten Free pasta is just on another level in the UK vs the own-brand stuff. Thank goodness!

Also, rebasing is a lot easier when you have small commits, rather than a mega conflict.

Thanks for making this point! I'm chiming in just to add that the Jupyter Book project that builds MyST tooling is now using a new TypeScript stack instead of Sphinx, for any interested newcomers! But yes, ^this. We are building around

The problem of "where did I see that" is something I suspect most people have encountered before. How that's actually done, though, is the devil. The vision -- semantic search of human experience -- is cool. The implementatio

I love this angle, and would take it further. I'm starting to think about AI in the same way that we think about food ethics. Some people are vegan, some people eat meat. Usually, these two parties get on best when they can at least un

I am lazily posting this all over the thread, but do check out MyST Markdown too! https://mystmd.org . We handle footnotes as a structured object.

MyST Markdown (the MD flavour, not the same-named Document Engine) was inspired by ReST. It was created to address the main pain-point of ReST for incoming users (it's not Markdown!). As a project, the tooling to parse MyST Markdown wa

Feel free to check out MyST Markdown, which very much aims to specify "structured Markdown": https://mystmd.org

Do check out MyST Markdown ( https://mystmd.org )! Academic publishing is a space that MyST is being used, such as https://www.elementalmicroscopy.com/ via Curvenote. (I'm a MyST contributor)

The PyPI ecosystem can not, for the foreseeable future, replicate the scope of the conda ecosystem. From microarch builds to library deduplication, conda is a more general purpose solution. That doesn't mean that one "wins out&quo

I don't disagree with the general vibe here, but a few points: - It's hard to compare Omicron vs delta because of the number of confounding variables - population heterogeneity, vaccine + infection induced immunity, etc. - Severe

A shameless plug for the MyST Engine https://mystmd.org/ It's a document engine that ingests Markdown (particularly the MyST superset) and builds upon "structured data" for sharing. E.g. SciPy's proceedi

I want to be careful about what I write given the context of what's going on, and the personal ramifications that can have. Suffice to say, it's worth considering whether the cost of a decision can be interpreted solely as how muc

It's a fair point to distinguish that baseload is just one mechanism to reduce the amount of surplus renewable capacity required to cover demand. However, what is the alternative in the face of a grid that's designed for centralis

I am not an expert by _any_ means, but to provide _some_ intuition — self-attention is ultimately just a parameterised token mixer (see https://medium.com/optalysys/attention-fourier-transforms-a-... ) i.e. each vector

Have you used the contemporary tooling in this space? `mamba` (and ~therefore, `pixi`) is fast, and you can turn off the base environment. The UX is nicer,too!
18.
by agoose77 2y ago
Yes, but there are restrictions; for one thing, it's not trivial to share binary dependencies between Python packages; conda just handles that.
19.
by agoose77 2y ago
If you use conda, and can use conda for what you need to do, use conda w/ conda-forge. It has a much better story for libraries with binary dependencies, whereas PyPI (which `uv` uses) is basically full of static libraries that someone

Oh, it turns out we already do this! A small bugfix to make these always-visible on mobile displays :) https://github.com/jupyter-book/myst-theme/issues/513

The main _technical_ difference between the two tools is the underlying approach to how we handle ASTs. MyST-MD leverages the unified-js tooling around AST handling, whereas Quarto uses Pandoc. For UX, we think that MyST has a lot of nice b

This is a lovely comment to read, thank you. The only implementation of restructured text is the docutils-Sphinx ecosystem. MyST Markdown was designed as a nicer language for Markdown-familiar authoring: https://executablebooks.o

mystmd supports parsing .tex files as well as MyST Markdown. There are some technical limitations here given the difficulty in parsing Markdown, but it's certainly usable.

MyST-MD is also aimed at publications! See the SciPy proceedings for some examples: https://proceedings.scipy.org/2024

MyST-MD is intended to be > a Sphinx alternative in TypeScript. We have some unfortunate naming that follows from history. The Python tools you're referring to are a distinct project. The Jupyter Book project saw the development of

This is mixing quite a few different things (backend, frontend, auxiliary CLI utilities). No time to write a lengthy reply here, but I think it's worth separating legitimate like-for-like comparison with a wider feeling on the ecosyste

For fun, the ROOT file format used in high energy physics has this kind of feature: https://root.cern.ch/root/SchemaEvolution.pdf It's also a very old format, so not without its warts :)
