Would you mind posting a link to these earlier videos that you are referring to?
Oh wow! Man this is so rad. This can help me kick my dependence on Typora / Dropbox Paper for class notes and continue the VSCode loving.

Ask HN: Resources to Learn Python for Science (NumPy / SciPy)?

I'm looking for some good tutorials / books that can introduce me to using Python for Science, preferably through doing small projects. I'm fairly conversant with Python and am currently following along with Scipy Lecture Notes (http://www.scipy-lectures.org/). Was wondering if there were any resources that offered a more hands-on approach.

I just wanted to say that I have really enjoyed Math ∩ Programming over the past year. Lot of interesting reading material for my commute. Keep up the good work! (Signed up for the mailing list. Good luck!)

Nope. Simply installed from a USB drive. Of course, there's a little effort if you want a Windows partition, but that has been documented / blogged about ad nauseam, so shouldn't be too difficult.

I run Ubuntu 16.04.1 (no Windows partition) on an Asus X555 (8GB RAM, 120GB SSD). Works extremely smooth. I've also used the same setup on a Transformer series notebook and have had no issues at all. It's honestly been my best notebook experience - having used Acer & Lenovo before (not that those notebooks were bad)

Sadly, viewing the videos requires login with a Stanford ID. For those inclined to learning through videos like me, this is a good alternative resource for the same - https://see.stanford.edu/Course/CS229

Superbly fast. And the extensions make it even more lovable. Very happy to have moved to VSCode from Sublime.

If possible, can you post a link to the same? The material on edX is currently of the Fall 2013 offering. Not that it's an issue but it would be nice to be more current.
