please do - I was trying to have pymc3 models running in python scripts and there was a lot of headache to get it right (I still don't think I have got it right...)

dfm commented 3 years ago

@yanhong-zhao-ef: Is this related to exoplanet specifically or PyMC3 more generally?

yanhong-zhao-ef commented 3 years ago

oh sorry I thought this is still an issue within pymc3 as I followed the pymc3 issue trail here! I meant pymc3 more generally

dfm commented 3 years ago

No worries - it might make sense to post an issue on the PyMC3 GitHub or discourse pages in that case.

Re-upping this since @benjaminpope also ran into issues in his JOSS review.
