1. I'm usually down on dark-mode but this looks clean as hell
2. The JupyterHub integration looks nice! It was mentioned in the article it was the "tip of the iceberg" I'm wondering how hard it would be to integrate with a tool like Observable.
It's certainly possible, I guess the bigger question is whether people would be comfortable having a database do an automatic data transfer into a public tool. In the case of this Jupyter integration, it's a Docker image that's running next to the OmniSci database, so it's all within the same network
This is a good point. There are lots of interesting possibilities with Observable, especially using the OmniSciDB open-source project for analyses that people intentionally do want to share
Mike Bostock's notebook here is a great starting point, showing how to import and use mapd-connector [1] in an Observable notebook and then feed its data into a vega-lite chart:

I'm looking forward to exploring the integration with Jupyter.
