1625924771920609290 I've been thinking thoughts on some Python packaging debates lately – for example wether to use upper bounds or not. Read about @condaforge vs @pypi on this issue – and how I think that @prefix_dev can provide a more powerful, automated solution: https://t.co/uXqUEworSD 16
1623981696503713792 I wonder if the reason that so many @pypi packages are being backdoored is because Python has become the defacto language for data-science and they are going after the data itself ? If not I reckon it will be. 5
