I'm against the idea of doing all of your software development in notebooks.
There's a sane way to use notebooks. For me, nbdev is a step too far, as it really pushes notebooks as the primary dev artifact.
(All my opinions, people can do whatever they want)

- softwaredoug 3y agoYes I'm a big fan :) I also like the "Why I like notebooks" counterpoint talk. I'm just not personally convinced. While they make some great arguments about where notebooks can be really powerful for software development, I don't think the speaker makes entirely valid counterpoints to the original "I don't like notebooks" talk and most of the problems of notebooks still stand.
