Create a bootable Windows USB using macOS

For some reason, it is surprisingly hard to create a bootable Windows USB using macOS. These are my steps for doing so, which have worked for me in macOS Monterey (12.6.1) for Windows 10 and 11. After following these steps, you should have a bootable Windows USB drive.

1. Download a Windows disc image (i.e. ISO file)

You can download Windows 10 or Windows 11 directly from Microsoft.

2. Identify your USB drive

After plugging the drive to your machine, identify the name of the USB device using diskutil list, which should return an output like the one below. In my case, the correct disk name is disk2.

Two ways to integrate Django with Jupyter (JupyterLab)

⚠️ This gist was the first time written in 2018. It was tested with django==2.2.x. It's likely to be relevant for the newer versions of django and jupyter, but I did't check that.

2023-03-15: checked it for python == 3.11, django == 4.1.7, jupyterlab = 3.6.1, django-extensions == 3.2.1, jupyter-server <= 2.0.0

Using Django project in Jupyter or JupyterLab

New Tab + T
Close Tab or Window + W (same as many mac apps)
Go to Tab + Number Key (ie: ⌘2 is 2nd tab)
Go to Split Pane by Direction + Option + Arrow Key
Cycle iTerm Windows + backtick (true of all mac apps and works with desktops/mission control)

Big list of http static server one-liners

Each of these commands will run an ad hoc http static server in your current (or specified) directory, available at http://localhost:8000. Use this power wisely.
