| 14:44:18 |  ehsteve | Btw I’m pretty close to summarizing my unconference sessions. If you participate in either of them please have a look at my report for accuracy. Thanks. |

| 16:59:27 |  jtniehof | I have my unconference summaries up, just focused on quick "what we talked about" and the recs. Thanks to Dan and Baptiste for note-taking. Further checks to see if I captured things appropriately are appreciated. |

| 17:50:38 | jtniehof | I did some googling and any Python 4 references are pie-in-the-sky guesses. (Also for reference it's been 10 years since python 3 came out and 7 years since numpy had Python 3 support.) |

| 20:39:14 | jtniehof | Drat. We were recommending .data as exposing the fundamental data type (e.g. if you use a numpy array internally it should expose the numpy array) but that doesn't work for is-a data types. numpy already uses .data to expose the internal buffer, so something that is-a numpy array can't redefine that to return a (vanilla) numpy array without breaking the ability to act like a numpy array itself. |
| 20:41:56 | jtniehof | https://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy/reference/generated/numpy.ndarray.data.html |
| 20:48:48 | jtniehof | Maybe change that to .data for composited objects and something else for subclassed...I'd suggest .base but numpy already uses that (to refer to the array that owns this array's memory.) |
| 20:49:08 | jtniehof | .super? |
| 20:49:26 | Cadair | I am not entirely sure you need a .data on an subclassed array |
| 20:49:31 | Cadair | or similar |
| 20:49:58 | jtniehof | It's purely syntactic sugar; it's so if people are used to doing .attrs/.meta for metadata and .data for data they get something reasonable. |
| 20:52:42 | jtniehof | and it can be nice to have something that gets you back to the base class (although I think it should be possible to make asarray do it reasonably without a copy, need to look into that.) |
| 20:53:13 | Cadair | what are you subclassing ndarray for out of interest? |
| 20:53:52 | jtniehof | so we can add attributes/metadata |
| 20:54:17 | jtniehof | (and then we add all the magic to make sure they get pickled properly and such, too) |
| 20:54:21 | Cadair | What library? |
| 20:54:27 | jtniehof | spacepy |
| 20:54:34 | Cadair | subclassing ndarray is a special kind of hell fwiw |
| 20:54:45 | jtniehof | you don't have to tell me twice.....well aware of that |
| 20:54:46 | Cadair | as it seems you know / are learning |
| 20:54:48 | Cadair | lol |
| 20:55:10 | Cadair | I am not sure what to suggest |
| 20:56:18 | Cadair | standarding between encapsulated and subclassed is an interesting problem |
| 20:56:18 | jtniehof | for now I think the solution is to wash some dishes and see what comes to me |
| 20:56:29 | Cadair | always a good option! |

| 17:10:11 |  wtbarnes | Is there a telecon right now? |
| 17:10:42 | Cadair | 🤷 |
| 17:14:29 | wtbarnes | I guess it will remain a mystery then |
