Missing ipynb files

Hi!

Im somewhat new to Python and Jupyter Notebook. I had some ipynb files created around 5 months ago. Few days ago I changed the location of the folder holding those files and now I can't find most of those ipynb files! Only 6 out of 20 files are somehow still there while the others are completely gone :| Can someone please explain why this happened and how to resolve it?

I obviously tried googling this, but couldn't find anything helpful.

Thank you :)

My project after a week of self study Python. No tutorial, only uses google when I'm stuck. The code is short and simple.

Finding the shortest path between two points using the A Star Algorithm! I find it to be one of the best self projects to learn and get into programming. Link to the Github repository in the comments!

Demo for Mr. Beast's Self Updating Thumbnail with Python & Pillow

2 days ago, Mr. Beast came out with a video titled "I'm Giving My Friend $1 For Every 1,000 Views On This Video" with a Thumbnail which programmatically updates how much money his friend has made from the video based off the current view count.

Because of this, I decided to make a coding demo on how he did this with python and pillow: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NCVIn8SnuJw](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NCVIn8SnuJw)

Let me know what y'all think!

[D] Uber AI's Contributions

As we learned last week, [Uber decided to wind down their AI lab](https://www.reddit.com/r/MachineLearning/comments/gm80x2/n_uber_to_cut_3000_jobs_including_rollbacks_on_ai/). Uber AI started as an acquisition of Geometric Intelligence, which was founded in October 2014 by three professors: Gary Marcus, a cognitive scientist from NYU, also well-known as an author; Zoubin Ghahramani, a Cambridge professor of machine learning and Fellow of the Royal Society; Kenneth Stanley, a professor of computer science at the University of Central Florida and pioneer in evolutionary approaches to machine learning; and Douglas Bemis, a recent NYU graduate with a PhD in neurolinguistics. Other team members included Noah Goodman (Stanford), Jeff Clune (Wyoming) and Jason Yosinski (a recent graduate of Cornell).

I would like to use this post as an opportunity for redditors to mention any work done by Uber AI that they feel deserves recognition. Any work mentioned here ([https://eng.uber.com/research/?\_sft\_category=research-ai-ml](https://eng.uber.com/research/?_sft_category=research-ai-ml)) or here ([https://eng.uber.com/category/articles/ai/](https://eng.uber.com/category/articles/ai/)) is fair game.

Some things I personally thought are worth reading/watching related to Evolutionary AI:

* [Welcoming the Era of Deep Neuroevolution](https://eng.uber.com/deep-neuroevolution/)
* [The surprising creativity of digital evolution: A collection of anecdotes from the evolutionary computation and artificial life research communities](https://eng.uber.com/research/the-surprising-creativity-of-digital-evolution-a-collection-of-anecdotes-from-the-evolutionary-computation-and-artificial-life-research-communities/)
* [Jeff Clune's Exotic Meta-Learning Lecture at Stanford](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZUdaqTC1TA)
* [Kenneth Stanley's Lecture on On Creativity, Objectives, and Open-Endedness](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2I4E_UINRo)
* Also, here's a summary by

My first python project after one udemy course. This app lets you download or listen to music from command line itself. It scrapes data from YouTube. I have also added a silly, random star visualizer when music is playing. Any suggestions are welcome I am just a beginner.

Got any questions about Django and JavaScript I can answer for you?

Hi /r/django/!

I'm working on a new article for my "building a SaaS with Django" series.

My goal is to create the best resource I can on how to work with Django and JavaScript together.

I'd love to hear from you what questions you have or what problems you've run into on this topic.

I'll do my best to answer in this thread, and will also use the questions I get to help inform topics I should cover in more depth in the article. :)

Prerequisites for Flask

I've been learning and working with Python for a couple of months now and want to branch out into web development using Python and Flask (because it's easier than Django). I've started to dive into the basics of HTML and CSS. What are other prerequisites for learning Flask?

Learn SQL before sql alchemy?

I’m learning flask but I struggle with some concepts of sql alchemy. As a beginner, would you recommend learning SQL before?

My first flask app - an expense and budgeting tool - Tendie Tracker.

Hi all,

I spent almost 3 months working on a replacement for my expense/budgeting Excel file and yesterday I went live with it! It's called Tendie Tracker and is hosted on heroku. I wanted to polish it up and have it 'portfolio worthy' so I also made a domain and used Webflow and some other tools to give it a professional polish.

* Landing page: https://www.tendietracker.com/

* Heroku app: https://tendie-tracker.herokuapp.com/register

* Repo: https://github.com/eddyharrington/Tendie-Tracker

Let me know what you think. I'd especially appreciate eyes on my code or repo structure. Or even suggestions on what kind of things I should learn next for Flask. I'm eyeing the mega flask tutorial and Harvard's web dev course that transitions from Flask to Django.

Thanks in advance.

How to start Jupyter Notebook again after Ctrl + C?

Hi,

I'm new to learning Python and just got Jupyter on my Mac. I read that the way to exit out of Jupyter (really slows down my computer!) is to do "Ctrl + C". However, how do I start Jupyter again? Typing "jupyter notebook" in terminal doesn't seem to work anymore. I have to terminate terminal, open that up again, and then type "jupyter notebook". I'm using Python 3.8.3 btw.

Also, any thoughts on the Python courses on Lynda? My school

Thanks!

REST framework

could somebody explain in simple terms what the django REST framework is, and examples of what types of projects should use it, and which ones do not need it.

Order of steps taken while building a Django site

If you were building a small, basic social media website, similar to Facebook but stripped down a whole lot, how would you approach the project?

Assume that the models/tables are already laid out on paper and you have mockups for each html page.

In what order do you create/build/work on the following items?

* views
* urls
* models
* html templates/pages (and forms - although maybe those are separate)
* user authentication
* password change/reset
* creating various app folders
* admin panel and superuser
* static files
* polish up and complete any fancy css that you may want

I'm trying to come with a general set of steps, or a recipe if you will, to follow.

Any Django Admin themes?

Other than the only one I can find (Django Suit), is there a place where I can find other Django Admin themes?
