No mention of Jupyter notebooks — I think that's a critical part of this change, in that it provides a sharable human-readable analysis format.
Also for the original poster (whose psycholinguistics work I am familiar with), it's easy to move data between R and Python using the rpy packages (which works in notebooks!)
- posterboy 8y agoDoes scientific computing happen in notebooks? I'd think they mean Supercomputers, not experiments running in the browser.
- glup 8y agoYes, definitely. Only the GUI for Jupiter is in the browser — the computation is on a workstation, server, or an iPython parallel cluster, so you can use proper HPC resources. Another common pattern (because socket-based communication can die) is to run the heavy HPC stuff with SLURM, etc. then compile and analyze the results in the notebook.
