BASE/tutorial: Jupyter in CoLab; getting started. by Robert Citek.

To borrow from Wikipedia, "Project Jupyter is a community run project with a goal to develop open-source software, open-standards, and services for interactive computing across dozens of programming languages."

The name Jupyter is somewhat of a portmanteau of Julia, Python, and R, the three initial core languages. And one way to get started using Jupyter and experience "interactive computing" is by enabling and using Google's Colaboratory ( aka CoLab ), a free service available via Google Drive. CoLab is not a full Jupyter environment, but there's enough there that you can create Markdown documents, develop Python code, explore data, and even run shell commands.

In this talk I will show how to get started with CoLab and demonstrate some of its capabilities using excerpts from Scott Granneman's "Linux Phrasebook."

MAIN Topic: Locking Down Your Search Engines & Web Browser.

### Presenter: Scott Granneman

#### What SEARCH ENGINES & web browsers are doing for your privacy (Chrome, Brave, Edge, Firefox, Vivaldi, Safari)

(This is somewhat of a "Part 2" BUT WILL stand on its own!
Scott will add a few final comments about Brave but also some other browsers. He'll then go into detail about securing the Search Engine you access from your browsers. )
Web browsers are the most important software on most computers, but if you are not careful, you can inadvertently reveal way too much information about yourself to websites, companies, and even the Web browser makers themselves. In this talk Scott is going to give advice and instructions for locking down browsers, as well as showing you some of the very cool new browsers on the scene. Of particular note, The Onion Browser which utilizes the TOR network so that the IP addresses/destinations/routings of your searches & webpage hits are hidden!
And beyond that, Scott will spend a lot of time covering some brand-new, "not-Google", "don't-track-you" search engines as well.

~6pm Zoom room opens.
6:30~7pm tutorial = Jupyter & CoLab.
~7pm~~7:15 announcements & general Q&A.
~7:15 maybe 7:30 starts MAIN presentation = Search Engine & Browser privacy.
~9pm close. The presentation certainly won’t go THIS long but frequently people like to stay and just keep talking about tonite’s topics or fork off to other open src issues.
