Most of the useful information is at the top of the page, in the Links and Materials menus. I occasionally post here, as well, and those post are below.
Anaconda Install
With the recent release of Anaconda 5.3, along with default Python 3.7 support, I’ve reinstalled my Anaconda distributions and would like to note down the extra packages I find useful.

[Read More]ROOT Default Compression in 6.14
There was a new compression algorithm in ROOT 6.12/02 that was faster than the old ZLIB default, but nearly as good as LZMA. It was called LZ4. In ROOT 6.14/00, that new algorithm is now the default algorithm. Which means that a file saved in ROOT 6.14 does not work in ROOT older than 6.12/02, 6.10/08, 6.08/06, or 5.34/38! For example, if you are using ROOT 6.06 on LxPlus, you are out of luck. The following are some suggestions for ways to fix this. (Note: once ROOT 6.14/02 comes out, please use that, as the suggestions are better there!)
