There's been a bunch of work to get kernels to load correctly.

Steps

1. Install latest jupyter extension into VS code
2. Install python extension into VS code
3. Go to settings and pick 'daily' for python.insidersChannel
4. Wait for python insiders to download
5. Close VS code
6. Start a terminal window
7. Create a new folder
8. Create a python virtual environment in the same folder : python -m venv mytestEnv
9. Open the new folder in VS code
10. Go to 'New File..' and pick Jupyter Notebook
11. Add the following to a cell

import sys
print(sys.executable)

12. Run the cell
13. You should be prompted to pick a kernel. Pick the 'myTestEnv' you just made
    
14. You should then be prompted to install ipykernel. Install it. This might take a while.
15. Cell should then run

Verify you get a path that prints out that matches the mytestEnv.

Just FYI for other testers: you need to do something to cause the python extension to activate for this to happen.

Another note: looks like you need to have python 3 installed, not 2.7.
