That does help. Network stuff is a usecase I could see. It seems like with a restart system you could do something like this, in a generic reusable library way, correct me if I'm wrong. On network failure, register a callback with som

I'm certain the host heavy lifting is done by numpy which is a python wrapper around Fortran and C. The visualization heavy lifting is done by pygfx/wgpu-py. wgpu-py has C. I think wgpu-py compiles to WASM to run in the browser

I'd be curious to hear more about your EDA workflow. What I want for EDA is a tool that let's me quickly toggle between common views of the dataset. I run through the same analysis over and over again, I don't want to type t

Really nice post introducing your library. When would you reach for a different library instead of fastplotlib? How does this deal with really large datasets? Are you doing any type of downsampling? How does this work with pandas? I didn&

I have read about the CL condition system. I get how restarts are useful for interactive programming. I don't see how they could be used in most cases where you want a program to run without a programmer intervening. Could you list s

This sounds interesting. Is this meant to run in pipelines or be used interactively? Are you building something open source? Link to the repo?

I am building Buckaroo [1], the data table UI in Jupyter that I have always wanted. I know how to use df.head(), df.describe(), sort, and run histograms on columns. I just got tired of typing 5 bits of code to minimally inspect each dataf

Did you write your own table? Million+ row handling is nice. Once I figured out window based display of tables, documentation and a bunch of other pieces of architecture became simpler. Previously I sent the whole dataset or a sample of i

What are your plans for a data table UI? Shameless plug: I created the open source Buckaroo table for jupyter (embeddable in other contexts) with histograms, summary stats, search... I love talking tables if you want to get in touch.

I like 80 columns, I can tolerate 100 or 120. I get really annoyed with formatting standards, JS/TS in particular that waste a whole line for a closing brace. Standard aspect has screens more limited vertically than horizontally. Whe

Thank you. I can always xargs grep for a function name, at worst. Dir() in python at a debugger for other things. With YAML, kubernetes and other devops hotness, I frequently can’t even find the relevant scripts/YAML that are execut

I think pandas was so ambitious syntax wise and concept wise. But it got be a bit of a jumble. The index idea in particular is so cool, particular multi-indexes, watching people who really understand it do multi index operations is very

Have you tried polars? It’s a much more regular syntax. The regular syntax fits well with the lazy execution. It’s very composable for programmatically building queries. And then it’s super fast

To your point about LLM based approaches have the huge adoption advantage in that you don't need to understand a lot to write into a text box. A tool like buckaroo requires investment into knowing where to click and how to understand t

I would love if we could seed LLMs with specific books, or give our own weightings to sources. I'm sure most books are in there already, I would happily pay extra (and want it to go to original authors) for known provenance of advice.
