This is great! I love Jupyter notebooks and use them all the time. From
what I've seen around academic publishing and open research circles (and
esp. at their intersections) longform written reports aren't going away. It
looks like some of the more forward-thinking venues are starting to support
a "both/and" model.
Which is wonderful IMO. More research artifacts means better verifiability
and also more opportunities for people to understand your data, findings,
methods, theories, etc. in the way that works best for them.

This is super interesting. Wouldn't it be great if
there were an open
source, central repository for notebooks... hmmmm

I've been feeling this a lot recently too.
Honestly, I'm looking forward
to the death of the scientific paper. It's a weird dance to just get some
results published. It's all too common that a key result will remain
unpublished because the authors haven't been able to *sell *the *story *to
some venue that doesn't directly match their intended audience. I'd much
rather live in a world where results are shared and the story around those
results develops collaboratively -- through conversation.
But with so much riding on *publication* and *citation rates *(namely,
lots of multi-million dollar grants), I don't see the end coming soon.

Not sure if this got shared around, but an
interesting discursive take,
relevant many Wikimedia conversations:
