3/09/2021 Meeting

  • HackMD link for taking notes while the meeting is happening.

  • Github link to update with the notes from the HackMD when it is over, to preserve them.

  • Zoom link for meeting.

Goals for meeting:

  • Review what we have learned so far

  • Try out “local development” by “cloning” the repository on your computer and editing it there

Agenda:

  • Saul: If people could help fill in notes here as we meet that would be great

  • Quinten: Idea for intro/checking breakout rooms?

  • Sara: Come back, divide up material we learned last time, break up and add PRs to add definitions of it.

  • Saul: Come back, demo of “local development,” split up into groups to try

    • Can either do it on your computer, or if your computer is too old in some way, can try Github Codespaces or GitPod

  • Timing for this meeting

  • Things to bring up tomorrow

    • Nina: Grant writing?

    • Quinten: Talking directly with disabled person in meetings or at another time to see their perspectives using JupyterLab?

  • Homework! Please fill out this when2meet for a good weekly time for this meeting: https://www.when2meet.com/?11290857-j3tTw We decided last week Mondays and Tuesdays are good because they give us time to prep before Wendesdays -nl

Notes:

  • Nina’s friend megan can come in the future. She is a coding teacher! Who is trying to stay one step ahead of her students.

  • Quinten: Maybe we can teach new people, I wanted to teach Tristin. But it would be a big burden on everyone here, so maybe we can teach new people.

  • Nina: Been playing solitaire and the no new moves deteched is faulty! I gotta make a new solitare game.

  • Charlotte: Keeps missing the ends of the meeting, maybe could catch up with Saul sometime.

    • Nina: Please fill out my when2meet! We decided on mondays/tuesdays to be before wed class but avoid weekends

    • Sara’s suggestions:

  • Adelaide: Getting into Tai Chi! Yang style short form, two forms, one relaxing, one less stressful. Yang style is more relaxing

  • Quinten: bell ringer situation on zoom? Small groups, to get on binder, act like blues clues?

  • Nina: In the future meeting, start off playing around with code, starting with an activity.

  • Quinten: Need practice “closing” pull request.

  • Nina: Next time we can teach the new people! in breakout rooms

    • Saul: Does someone else want to make an agenda?

      • Nina: I can

    • Sara: Starting with JupyterLab is too much! Start with github and markdown

  • Nina: for name, I think we should be a mineral, like “silicon valley,” but another mineral.

  • Sara: Hack md why are notes in different colors?

    • Saul: Different indentaton levels, syntax highlighting

  • Start jupyterlab locally, when you go to localhost instead

  • Other definitions: terminal, gitpod, visual studio code, codespaces, binder, gitpod source control git , staged changes, patch. why are .yml not in gitpod?

  • Gitpod: to start our repo: https://gitpod.io/#https://github.com/saulshanabrook/jupyterlab-accessibility
