I blogged a thing, would love to read your thoughts! https://dev.to/astrojuanlu/python-packaging-is-great-now-uv-is-all-you-need-4i2d

@Juan Luis that was a nice read. Towards the end of the post you mention the below for `conda`: "it might be time to stop teaching it to beginners and deem it an advanced tool". Can you expand a bit on that? (Why is that, what features does conda offer to advanced users, etc.)

thanks @George p! Jannis, from Anaconda, reached out about that. here was my response:

I'm very proficient with conda and I keep using it in specific moments (e.g. for installing old versions, or old Python versions, or installing libxyz to then compile a Python package from source). But for beginners (and looks like for some experts too) it's difficult to predict when a ``pip install`` gone rogue will override the conda-installed NumPy and break the world, which is why I find it increasingly hard to justify when teaching beginners.
