@aparrish This is a big consideration for us - astronomers tend to use the same packages for decades as languages and fads come and go - we often re-analyse old data, too, so stable data standards help. There's a big cost to redeveloping your entire system every few years.

Good fuck, who is shouting "LOG OFF" at my condo. Vanish not, coward. I will not now or at any coming point log off
@casey ooooh I don't think that's on Spotify
Because I like being incredibly behind on pop culture, I have just started listening to Carly Rae Jepsen's 2015 album EMOTION and it is, in fact, pop heaven
What my daily writing project is teaching me is that I'm an incredibly petty person...which is not at all news to people who know me I'm sure but it is news to ME, as I think of myself as a pure angel above all emotional concerns.
(I know. I'm ridiculous.)

I teach tech and I'm often asked why I don't teach some allegedly time-saving proprietary tool/environment/whatever. the answer is that the risk of that proprietary tool just ceasing to exist are really high, and when that happens, the time I spend developing curricula against the tool goes up in smoke. by contrast, notes I wrote for, e.g., python text processing are just as good today as they were ten years ago. over the long run, I think I save a lot of time by teaching only open source tools.
