Catch me coding research software #RSEng

[🐘 @[email protected] @catch_me_coding]

Do you like to code as much as you like doing research and writing papers? I’m delighted to share my experience in my favorite #altac career path: @ResearchSoft-ware engineering! Take a listen or AMA 🎧

Catch me presenting an update on the state of the Jupyter4Science site, which was one of the outcomes of my @BetterSSw fellowship. See the latest blog post at https://t.co/08bKX8NIZb

Amazing posters at the poster session at #SciPy2024 🙌

I was watching Lord of the Rings last night and realized there are many parallels with academia!

A thread 🧵👇

@SciPyConf has the most welcoming community ❤️ I’m grateful for the opportunity to present my tutorial about turning @ProjectJupyter workflows into web apps with #nbdev. I can’t wait to incorporate all kinds of new visualizations and tools I learned into my @BetterSSw materials

This summer I’ve been mentoring these student interns funded by the @BetterSSw fellowship. They are incredible and I am so energized by their enthusiasm and hard work! I’m so grateful for the opportunity to improve my management and teaching skills with these wonderful humans :)

I just bought my t-shirt which will help raise funds for the inaugural @us_rse '23 Conference. I'm excited to announce that there is a women's cut! Now I can show off my RSE pride and be comfortable doing so 💁‍♀️https://t.co/jlks7qXjvi

Isn’t it beautiful?? Oh wait, it’s a little hard to see in icon size … 🔍🔍 … how about now 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

@JamesABednar A little late in the game here, but wouldn’t it be cool if we supported interactive posters at a the @us_rse conference?? @sandragesing @KentonMcHenry @j_damerow

[🐘 @[email protected] @catch_me_coding]

An interactive poster? Why didn’t I think of that?? Amazing #jupyternotebook use-case that I’ll be pitching alongside data dashboards and web apps 👏👏

If you have any interest in pushing the boundaries for how science can be communicated, check out Jacob Barhak's fully interactive posters based on

tools: https://t.co/ELx2EWwWFg https://t.co/O6xf2V7bSJ Way more powerful than trying to read a static PDF paper!

[🐘 @[email protected] @catch_me_coding]

@JamesABednar Wow! Was it a supported submission type or did he submit a static PDF and bring his own screens?

[🐘 @[email protected] @catch_me_coding]

@JamesABednar @condaproject The post is great too, thanks door sharing

[🐘 @[email protected] @catch_me_coding]

Help! I’m looking for an article that describes best practices for conda environment files 🔎 Specifically, I want something that explains how to find the balance between listing the exact package versions and listing no version at all. Do any of my #RSE s have a link to share?

[🐘 @[email protected] @catch_me_coding]

@JamesABednar @condaproject Okay, thanks very much for your detailed response! Not sure what would have happened last time since we were on the same WiFi, but there’s no telling now.

[🐘 @[email protected] @catch_me_coding]

@JamesABednar @condaproject Does this agree with your experience at all? Last time I tried to send a lock file to someone was quite a few years ago

[🐘 @[email protected] @catch_me_coding]

@JamesABednar @condaproject Dredging up an old thread here if you’re willing… My experience with lock files is that they aren’t very portable. Even when the person reproducing the env is on the same OS, the build can fail. Containers solve this problem, but sometimes I don’t expect my user to use them.

Can’t wait to try this out! A very interesting alternative to the ipywidgets ecosystem

[Posit PBC @posit_pbc]

Shiny for Python is now generally available! 🎉

With Shiny, you can create interactive web apps without HTML/CSS.

Now, you can combine Shiny's reactivity with #Python's vast resources for endless possibilities.

[Sebastian Kopf @kopf_lab]

Technical question for @pyOpenSci @rOpenSci @posit_pbc folks. Do you have a guide on how to get started implementing identical python/R libraries with a shared C++ backend? looking for examples less complicated than the amazing https://t.co/xAnrps7bxN #Python #RStats #OpenScience

@PurdueRCAC Thanks Steckel!!
