-.. code:: python
-
- import sys
- Path(json.loads(Path(sys.argv[-1]).read_bytes())['jupyter_session'])

-The way this works is that for each notebook, jupyter starts a python "kernel" process that actually runs the notebook's
-code. That kernel gets a json file with info on the notebook's location on the disk passed through its command line.
-Since we're running code in that exact python process, we can just grab that json file from sys.argv, and read it
-ourselves.
