My name is Will McGugan. 👋 I am the creator of Rich and Textual, and the founder and CEO of Textualize. At the end of last year I took a year off to work on my Open-source projects and develop an idea that I believe will allow the terminal to eat some of the browser’s lunch.

Seen some tweets about #Python lambdas recently. There are alternatives to lambdas which are still one-liners but are faster and (arguably) simpler. Let's look at a few. <🧵>

TIL the small (~15 people) but humble consulting company @QuantStack carries a ton of weight in the Jupyter and package management communities: medium.com/@QuantStack/quant… The list of projects they led is impressive

My favorite book on MLOps and ML Pipelines is this book by @vtuulos manning.com/books/effective-… It introduces human-friendly APIs that are practical & easy to use. Many tools promote fake rigor via unnecessary complexity and poor documentation. This book avoids that.

This is a really nice profiler for Python. It generates a nice tree view in the terminal that help you drill down in to where your code is spending the most time. github.com/joerick/pyinstrum…

💪 Challenge: 1) Solve #AdventOfCode using the latest & greatest Python tech. 2) Write tests for everything, just to test @pytestdotorg. Also everyone will want to hire you. 3) Report bugs to package maintainers. 4) Sail into 2022 knowing you did good. adventofcode.com/
## TODO - [ ] Upgrade to Python 3.10.1 (6th Dec) - [ ] Upgrade to @djangoproject 4.0 (7th Dec) - [ ] Upgrade to @pytestdotorg 7.0.0rc1 (7th Dec) - [ ] Install security upgrades for Python 3.9.9 and Djangos 3.2.10 et al What did I miss?

Teaching my nine-year-old about the divide and average method for computing square roots. The math was each to teach, but the #Python coding presented many challenges. In instructor-speak, these are called “learning points” 😉 1/

(Of course) XGBoost does not always win on tabular datasets. Made a HW where students got to tinker w. hyperparam tuning techniques (grid search, randomized search, Hyperopt, Optuna, successive halving) and algos (GBMs and everything in scikit-learn + mlxtend). Top-10 results:

🤯Wait... this can't be right. Right?🤯 Just tested creating a SQLite database on github.dev, using solely Pyodide; and ran a query against it with pandas. All in the browser. No VM, no cloud-hosted resources; just @Github and the WASM-y Python data science stack.
