Python
  - A directory that contains a __main__.py file can be executed directly by the python interpreter
  - If that directory contains a __init__.py file it can be executed as a module.
  - If using MatPlotLib you might receive a "Python was not installed as a framework..." error.
    - Create a file `~/.matplotlib/matplotlibrc` and populate it with `backend: TkAgg` to solve the problem.
    - Why? Who fuckin knows?
    
Jupyter
  - When installing a Javascript Jupyter kernel following the following page:
