       | This Jupyter (CRDT-based) extension appears to solve the BIGGEST
       | HEADACHE I personally have with Jupyter(lab). Jupyter notebooks
       | allow me to hack code/parameters too fluently, and I can't
       | recover earlier positions in code/parameter space that produced
       | interesting results.
       | 
       | Jupytext and git goes some way towards fixing that, but I don't
       | save to git after every cut/paste of a parameter. This extension
       | is effortless.
       | 
       | As a bonus, the extension appears to allow SubEthaEdit/GoogleDocs
       | style collaboration too. (I haven't personally used that yet.)
       | 
       | Check it out.

         | Today I learned... Jupyter has an extension for 3d modelling.
         | 
         | Can anyone comment on this extension?

         | Do users typically have one system-wide Jupyter install that

         | own dependencies in a virtual environment that Jupyter
         | activates?
         | 
         | Or is Jupyter installed inside each project's virtual
         | environment?
