With the new root protection feature in El Capitan, it’s hard to install pip packages into the system python. Besides, it’s generally considered bad practice to clutter up your system python’s library with packages. Most developers prefer to set up their own virtualenv for python and then install packages into that local environment. I did the same for setting up Jupyter Notebook and everything worked as expected. Well, mostly everything.
Once upon a time, I had a dream. A dream of perfection. A dream of beauty. A dream of peace.
I dreamt of owning a Mac.
It’s not so much about the hardware as it is about the divine experience that is Mac OS X. By virtue of the osx86 community, I’d gotten Snow Leopard to run on my Dell XPS 1340. I used it for around a year (until the monitor stopped working, at which point I stowed it at the back of my cupboard and assembled my own PC), and in that year I was irrevocably changed.
