What’s with the FUD? You can already run S4TF notebooks on Colab, and it’s trivial to spin up S4TF in any environment using Docker.

- pjmlp 7y agoHow do you spin S4TF on Windows Containers or any kind of Linux distribution in-house?
- skohan 7y agoUsing Docker Edit: or on Ubuntu just download the toolchain.
- pjmlp 7y agoSo instead of using the native tooling provided by Julia, ML.NET, PyTorch, the solution is to somehow either emulate Linux on Windows, or being stuck with Ubuntu as distribution.
- skohan 7y agoI mean containerization is not the same as emulation. But I would assume a lot of people just want a notebook to do their work in. Does it really matter if it’s running in a container or natively? Most python projects run inside a virtual environment anyway, which is comparable if not more poorly encapsulated. Also the cloud use-case is expanding. Environment basically doesn’t matter at all in that case.
- pjmlp 7y agoIt is on Windows, because Swift hardly runs there, if at all. Yes it matters, because many organisations get development stations managed by IT, and there are very strict compliance regulations regarding where data processing takes place.
