Description

I am using a pristine notebook and kernel to run the example from [the documentation](https://ipyparallel.readthedocs.io/en/latest/). Execution fails with error messages.

## Environment
- Jupyter Notebook 6.4.5
- Python 3.8.5
- ipyparallel 8.0.0

## Code
```
import time
import ipyparallel as ipp

task_durations = [1] * 25
# request a cluster
with ipp.Cluster() as rc:
# get a view on the cluster
view = rc.load_balanced_view()
# submit the tasks
asyncresult = view.map_async(time.sleep, task_durations)
# wait interactively for results
asyncresult.wait_interactive()
# retrieve actual results
result = asyncresult.get()
# at this point, the cluster processes have been shutdown
```

## Error
```
