idanp··on Show HN: I rewrote my notepad calculator as a local-first app with CRDT syncing
I always wished these notepad calculators would run plain python. POC - https://github.com/idanpa/jupad
idanp··on Notebooks as reusable Python programs
For lightweight calculations re-execute everything while typing cells https://github.com/idanpa/jupad
idanp··on Ask HN: What tool for live, collaborative, symbolic math?
lyx [1] is great for live editing of latex . Set the instant preview Tools>Preferences>Display>Instant Preview if you want automatic latex rendering, although the editor rendering is nice as it is.

For something that is more of a calculator, SymPy [2] with sympy.init_printing() would be rendering latex automatically in any Jupyter notebook.

Specific tools I created for my own use for leveraging the above is pypad [3] together with calcpy [4] (%load_ext calcpy)

[1] LyX https://www.lyx.org

[2] SymPy https://www.sympy.org

[3] pypad https://github.com/idanpa/pypad

[4] calcpy https://github.com/idanpa/calcpy

idanp··on SymPy: Symbolic Mathematics in Python
I think PyPy usually has slower startup time. Need to try to defer some of the imports to be done in the background, see how good is the outcome. Feel free to open an issue in github.

I use SymPy as my calculator with https://github.com/idanpa/calcpy
idanp··on Ask HN: Why are there no open source NVMe-native key value stores in 2023?
Virtualization can happen in the hardware itself, e.g. SR-IOV.
idanp··on Qalculate – A multi-purpose cross-platform desktop calculator
matplotlib is not needed, SymPy fallsback to ascii plotter and this is what I use on phone with termux.

yes, with modifications - https://github.com/idanpa/calcpy
idanp··on SymPy makes math fun again
I felt SymPy needed some adjustments for it to be fun and useful for my day-to-day calculations, so I wrote this:
