Dear all,

these are the slide of Joel Grus' Jupyter Con talk "I Don't Like
Notebooks":

https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1n2RlMdmv1p25Xy5thJUhkKGvjtV-dkAIsUXP-AL4ffI/edit#slide=id.g362da58057_0_1

Beside the fact that this talk is it really funny, it raises a lot of
issues that I can confirm from my experience:

- hidden states
- encouraging bad habits and discouraging good habits
- less powerful help tooltip than in a proper IDEs
- copy and paste between different media is hard

I personally really like Jupyter Notebooks for teaching (while it
never made into my data analysis tool box) but this talked motivated
me to rethink its usage and maybe I will try to jump earlier than
before into a proper IDE when I am teaching Python. Anaconda comes
with Spyder so there is a good alternative already at hand.

I would be interested in hearing your thoughts regarding this.

Best wishes

Konrad
