You're lucky, in my software development career I've been automatizing other people work so they could be fired. It isn't so directly, but is really what happens after some years. Selling art tickets is a noble work.

The REPL is a really different way to develop software. Jupyter was grown from IPython, a really great REPL. I prefer it to Jupyter. I always start a console connected to my notebook executing the magic %qtconsole

Yes, it is a lot worse. I live in Brazil, where a Facebook company, was used in a plot to spread fake news to elect a far right president. They are really against doing anything that may affect their bottom line. No other tech company is th
