> many academic scientists have not been socialized to make a distinction between development and production environments Geologist here - definitely true in my field. Nonetheless, while I don't develop in notebooks at all, I do use them for "reproducibility" in a sense -- by putting a bit of dependency info in a github repo along with a .ipynb file, I can do things like this: https://mybinder.org/v2/gh/brenhinkeller/Chron.jl/master?filepath=examples%2Fdemo.ipynb https://mybinder.org/v2/gh/brenhinkeller/Chron.jl/master?fil... Which ends up being useful when a lot of folks in my field don't do any computational work at all, so being able to just click on a link and have something work in browser is a big help.
