perculis··on Guide to Python Debugging
Try pycharm. It allows debugging Jupyter notebooks. Not perfect but better than nothing.
perculis··on Why is AI so useless for business?
The article fails to address the bigger issue: if enough data is provided and the information becomes clear, what then is the resultant?

Without a genera A.I. (which we are a long way from) how can the process work be done and what will it mean if it can be done? We’d like to think that we’d be more productive... we’d create new and better “things”... but if history is any guide, we’d simply focus on straightforward profit generating bullshit...

perculis··on The Peter Principle is a joke taken seriously. Is it true?
As a developer who has risen through management ranks quickly I can say that without training and support I would have very readily lived this principle. One set of skills can only be partially transferable to the new demands of management.
perculis··on I'm bored, what do I do?
Great post. I’ve been working hard to encourage my children to understand this very concept.
perculis··on Microsoft Is Said to Have Agreed to Acquire GitHub
Agreed on both points. The shift will bring a lot of opportunity to build a more decentralized repo base. I think something like (Keybase)[http://keybase.io] might be interesting.
