Workplace safety rules for screen workers say that to avoid eye strain, windows should be to the side, not in the direction you're facing. On a bright day the light coming from the window can have an intensity multiple orders of magnitude higher than the screen. I find it very uncomfortable.

I really like talking to Claude (free tier) instead of using a search engine when I'm stumbling upon a random topic that interests me. For example, this morning I had it explain the differences between pass by value, pass by reference, and pass by sharing, the last of which I wasn't aware of until then.
Is this kind of thing also possible with one of these self-hosted models in a comparable way, or are they mostly good for coding?

Alright, thanks. I don't particularly like notebook, but this might a reason to give it another go.

I'm in the same boat as the person you replied to, but have zero experience with remote plotting other that doing static plots in in a remote session in the interactive window provided by VS Code's python extension. Would this also work there, or would I have to start using jupyter notebooks?
