I vote for this feature too. It would be perfect if I could hide some of the icons placed by topicons.

I have not changed the worker but looks like you were right the example worker returns numpy floats: ```python In [1]: from hpbandster.examples.commons import MyWorker In [2]: worker = MyWorker(run_id='0')...

I changed the worker to return floats: ```python from hpbandster.examples.commons import MyWorker as MyWorker_ class MyWorker(MyWorker_): """A worker without numpy returns""" def compute(self, config, budget, **kwargs): res = super().compute(config, budget,...

still, it did not finish: [logs.txt](https://github.com/automl/HpBandSter/files/2971734/logs.txt) Here is the python file: ```python import logging logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG) mpl_logger = logging.getLogger('matplotlib') mpl_logger.setLevel(logging.WARNING) import argparse import pickle import time import os import hpbandster.core.nameserver as...

Would you agree to a change similar to https://github.com/dask/dask-jobqueue/pull/501 ? Because right now it's not possible to set walltime as None without changing the configs.

That's what I thought too but we're getting errors. See: https://gitlab.idiap.ch/bob/bob.ip.binseg/-/jobs/245823 ``` File "/scratch/builds/bob/bob.ip.binseg/miniconda/envs/bdt/lib/python3.8/site-packages/bob/devtools/build.py", line 239, in get_rendered_metadata return conda_build.api.render(recipe_dir, config=config) File "/scratch/builds/bob/bob.ip.binseg/miniconda/envs/bdt/lib/python3.8/site-packages/conda_build/api.py", line 42, in render metadata_tuples = render_recipe(recipe_path,...

This happens when conda-build is not installed in the base environment.
