Here's a question to #ActuallyAutistic friends: I hear "a person in the spectrum" instead of "on the spectrum". This "in" is supposed to reflect better the multidimensionality of autism characteristics and reject the idea of linearity (less <-->more autistic). What do you think?

Dear #jupyternotebook users - I'm new to this and I can't believe I have to ask this: is there a way to run all the cells above cell X? And by that I mean all the cells *that are above this one in the notebook*? So something like "run from beginning to line" in RStudio? 🙏.
