If "i" wasn't called "imaginary" I don't know if anyone would find it weird when it appeared in physics. In many ways i is as weird as negative numbers, irrational numbers, and transcendental numbers. But we&#x

Great video, except for a few wrong details that really get to me... - The pixels in an LCD aren't little light bulbs. They are little lamp shades. (The pixels in an OLED display are little light bulbs though) - A CRT doesn't sh

This is a library for use in Streamlit (which is a Python framework for data apps), and Streamlit already supports Vega-Lite behind the scene. So I'm just riding on their Vega-Lite. Here's more info about Streamlit: https:/&

Check out the example app, linked in the README. I meant for that to be a replacement for the README, since it actually lets you interact with the plots. But I'll add a picture to GitHub anyway

Oh hey, fancy seeing this here! I'm the author I'll try to answer questions below.

I just have alternate layouts depending on what I'm doing. English, programming, and some bits of Portuguese = US keyboard + compose key Portuguese = US-intl (but in mine, all the keys you mentioned are dead keys. No Alt need)

Hey, Streamlit co-founder here. This should just work out of the box in Streamlit: caption = st.text_input("Meme subject or caption") if caption: # do search here If that doesn't work for you, do you mind posting in our for

Or perhaps the opposite could happen: as more and more people start carrying devices that have access to the internet via cellular connection, airports could start providing Wi-Fi for free, as they could use that for tracking, marketing, an

There's actually a funny story here, and one day we'll tell it in more detail. TDLR: it's a coincidence / slightly obvious given our names. We discovered the similarity on the day we launched our logo, and it almost made

What always bugged me about QR codes is that they're not human-readable. I'd love if there were a standard where you'd simply have a human-readable URL plus some markers at the start and end to help with OCR. And you could st

Hey, Streamlit co-founder here! (I'm otherwise not related to this article, btw. Just saw it on HN. Super cool!) If I understand correctly you're trying to extend Streamlit in some way? If so, we have some features coming out in a

Hi bobosha It depends on how you would define "production scale". If you're talking about hosting a publicly accessible Streamlit app on the internet, it's definitely possible but will require you to set up an appropriat

Not at the moment. There are a few reasons for this, but perhaps the most fundamental one is that Streamlit starts a blocking server -- so even if you could run it inside Jupyter it would pause your Jupyter session until you killed Streamli

Hi J0e1, I'm one of the founders of Streamlit. Regarding extensibility, we totally agree: over time, many people are going to want to write their own custom widgets. Which is why we're actually in the early phases of designing a p

Hey, another co-founder of Streamlit here. Let us know how this works out for your team! And for the nerdier people on your team, they may appreciate our post in Towards Data Science today: https://towardsdatascience.com/cod

Oh interesting. I did not know it used GCC. It feels super snappy, nonetheless. Last time I tried it was a couple of months ago. I don't recall what it was missing, but it was some core part of my normal python development environment.

Clear Linux is blazing fast (compiled with Intel compilers), and supposedly has a strong security model -- but it also has an extremely limited package selection. To the point that it's just not usable for me. Also, its package manager

I'm not convinced of the "always rewrite" thing, but what you're talking about would be solved by writing tests when you fix a bug.

Reminds me of Millor Fernandes's "The cow went to the swamp — A vaca foi pro brejo", which is a book of Brazilian Portuguese sayings translated literally to English. Pretty amusing. https://www.amazon.com/cow-
