It's so nice I submitted it to HN... and it made to the front page. Congrats! :) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10506264

(Myself I advocate using Jupyter for learning things, see e.g. my training http://workshops.deepsense.io/.)

Awesome, thank you for submitting it. The visibility will improve the guide I think.

I really do want visibility for the guide, because I think it absolutely needs peer review. I "got ahead of myself" on purpose to try and capture a beginner's mind.

I want to sort of back-fill it with more expert knowledge, as much as possible. Hopefully not by making it get longer and longer, but rather by just making it more correct/substantial/vetted.

I can't tell if you are affirming the use of Jupyter/ ipython notebook, or if you were suggesting I should update to more-completely recommend Jupyter over Ipython notebook (guide currently mixes terms).

When I first started putting this together, it was still just -- ipython notebook, and other notebooks. The unifying effort of Jupyter hadn't been released yet. I need to catch up here... After I know the full picture about how Jupyter is different from ipython notebook, any compatibility issues, etc., I will make a full pass through the guide to update anything needing updates.

Or if someone submits a Pull Request before I have time too, I'll gladly accept it ;)

I've opened a ticket so this doesn't get lost: https://github.com/hangtwenty/dive-into-machine-learning/iss...

Please LMK if I'm off track here, or if you meant to prod in this direction.

Thanks again!

I meant Jupyter as in "Jupyter (aka IPython Notebook)" - I am just affirming your choice. Unless you met some particular issues (I never did), talking about versions of Jupyter/IPython Notebook would be distractive rather than helpful (IMHO).

OK, that's perfect. Sorry, I misinterpreted you, thought maybe there were incompatibilities I didn't know about. I will close the issue. Thanks :)
