Bad parser error message

This caused me a fair bit of confusion: `SIMULATE Date_of_Launch,longitude_radians_of_geo,Apogee_km,Power_watts,Launch_Mass_kg,Dry_Mass_kg,Anticipated_Lifetime,Period_minutes,Eccentricity,Inclination_radians FROM satellites_cc Perigee_km=34672.7886686 LIMIT 7559` => ``` bayeslite.exception.BQLParseError: simulate missing limit Syntax error near [Perigee_km] after [SIMULATE Date_of_Launch , longitude_radians_of_geo...

Multistate conditional sampling is inaccurate

3

[Conditional draws from each model are given equal weight](https://github.com/probcomp/crosscat/blob/4f75431b06978c77fc1c8e9c559af0f68101316d/src/utils/sample_utils.py#L320). This is inaccurate. Models should be drawn from the multinomial given by the total probability of the conditions.

Crosscat hyperprior grid on variance parameter is broader than it needs to be

9

Crosscat adopts a uniform hyperprior over the parameters of the Normal Gamma prior distribution on the Normals (see [footnote 1, p. 8](http://arxiv.org/pdf/1512.01272.pdf).) For the "variance" parameter, this is done by...

Known issues when used with multiprocessing module?

9

In my hands, line_profiler is failing to record information when `multiprocessing.Pool.map` is used to call the functions I'm targetting. I can probably put together a minimal test case, but I...

Exporting to ipynb format

It would be super-handy to be able to round-trip an ipython org notebook to the .ipynb format used by ipython notebook.
