What it does

Keep a Jupyter kernel—and its output—alive independently of the client. Close your editor, lose your connection, or return later; the same session is still there and still streaming. Status: alpha. It works and it's in daily use, but you will hit rough edges. Bug reports are genuinely useful — please open an issue . You SSH into a GPU box, start a long run in a notebook, and close your laptop. When you come back, depending on your setup: The root cause is the same in all three: the source of truth for your session lives on the client, or in a channel that doesn't outlive a disconnect. Tithon moves it to the host. And in the era of AI agents, one more: a .ipynb is JSON bloat — the same…from github.com

  • Sub-millisecond VM sandboxes using CoW memory forkingMar 2026 · github.com · ▲311

    I wanted to see how fast an isolated code sandbox could start if I never had to boot a fresh VM. So instead of launching a new microVM per execution, I boot Firecracker once with Python and numpy already loaded, then snapshot the full VM state. Every execution after that creates a new KVM VM backed by a `MAP_PRIVATE` mapping of the snapshot memory, so Linux gives me copy-on-write pages automatically. That means each sandbox starts from an already-running Python process inside a real VM, runs the code, and exits. These are real KVM VMs, not containers: separate guest kernel, separate guest…

  • I built a tensor library from scratch in C++/CUDA2025 · github.com · ▲119

    Hi HN, Over the past few months, I've been building `dsc`, a tensor library from scratch in C++/CUDA. My main focus has been on getting the basics right, prioritizing a clean API, simplicity, and clear observability for running small LLMs locally. The key features are: - C++ core with CUDA support written from scratch. - A familiar, PyTorch-like Python API. - Runs real models: it's complete enough to load a model like Qwen from HuggingFace and run inference on both CUDA and CPU with a single line change[1]. - Simple, built-in observability for both Python and C++. Next on the roadmap is…

  • Reactive Jupyter- reactive execution of Python in VSCode2024 · marketplace.visualstudio.com · ▲8

    Hi HN I’ve developed an experimental VSCode extension to keep a Python Kernel in sync with a Python file. (Reactive execution) The extension uses Static Code Analysis to infer dependencies between lines of code. When you modify a line in a file, it will be marked as Stale together with all the lines that depend on it. You can Sync the state with Ctrl+Shift+Enter. In this way, you are always in control. See the Readme for a detailed demo. —------------- The primary limitation of this extension is that it currently relies on Static Code Analysis, which can only do so much. Again, see the…

    Hey HN! We’ve forked Jupyter Lab and added AI code generation features that feel native and have all the context about your notebook. You can see a demo video (2 min) here: https://www.tella.tv/video/clxt7ei4v00rr09i5gt1laop6/view Try a hosted version here: https://pretzelai.app Jupyter is by far the most used Data Science tool. Despite its popularity, it still lacks good code-generation extensions. The flagship AI extension jupyter-ai lags far behind in features and UX compared to modern AI code generation and understanding tools (like…
