twocupsofcoffee··on Package reproducibility in Python notebooks using uv isolated environments
Stuff like this is so convenient and intuitive that it makes you wonder why we didn't start here in the first place!

One thing I wonder is how many data scientists will use this feature given that it is not enabled by default (which is understandable, would be messy for every notebook to have a venv), and only via command-line arguments.

I guess this is easily remedied by helpful beginner tooltip UX ("This notebook has several dependencies. Would you like to build it in a sandbox?").
