Running notebooks with Python 3.8.3 causes Assertion errors

Python 3.8.3 の新しい kernel から、リンクされた circuits_advanced/1_advanced_circuits.ipynb を再現し、その後 ipykernel/kernelbase.py と tornado/ioloop.py の traceback の位置を調査してください。Notebook が動作する Python 3.8.2 または 3.7.x と比較してください。互換性の原因を特定し、その結果としての fix または依存関係の変更を検証できれば完了です。

Since upgrading to the latest python release 3.8.3 on my system I have had issues running a notebook, specifically: https://github.com/Qiskit/qiskit-tutorials/blob/master/tutorials/circuits_advanced/1_advanced_circuits.ipynb Running that notebook when you run it from scratch on a fresh kernel it hangs on cell 8 and the jupyter notebook output logs multiple assertion errors:

Downgrading python to 3.8.2 (or 3.7.x) fixes this. I've also confirmed it on other platforms (I run on linux, but mac users running 3.8.3 have had the same issue). I assume this is probably a bug in python or tornado, but I lack the domain expertise on the stack to be sure.
