Saturday: Lightning Talks
summary
Quick-fire demos and concrete takeaways: a Jupyter notebook boots a parallel cluster and scales to 8 engines for load‑balanced tasks; a hand‑built actor system implements EPMD in Python to link nodes and send messages; a Lego‑block Git rebase/merge model clarifies conflict resolution; checklist for picking databases, infra and DR practices; a prime‑number trick encodes anagram checks; a Python extension claims 300,000 downloads with debugging and testing features; notes on publishing to PyPI, Cloud9 browser IDE, identity fields for forms, audio‑modem at ~19 kHz, and an Elegant SciPy book in Jupyter.
