I went the other way round; dumped all JetBrains stuff and now write most things in Atom/Nuclide. At least it's not as slow with very large files as JetBrains stuff. I realized with Deep Learning work and Jupyter Notebook that I actually don't need IDE anymore...

How do you use Jupyter for Deep Learning? I can only think about prototyping stuff, but not for training a large dataset (that doesn't fit in memory) for days.

Of course, prototyping only + test runs; then moving the code to proper source files (or writing them separately and including them in the notebook). Usually I write everything in the notebook, make sure I catch all the bugs, do some initial test runs to see if I am getting anywhere, then separating code out to individual Python files. The good thing is I can immediately showcase principles and progress to clients by interleaving markdown with the code, throw in some visualization and stats to the mix, add links to arxiv papers and github repos, showcase multiple approaches/models with preliminary accuracy results or heatmap visualizations etc. Then (reasonable) clients are properly informed and can decide which direction they want to move forward etc.

How big are your datasets?

A few petabytes in some cases. Some advanced balanced sampling in Spark must be used for testing the models.
