Hybrid MI Python: Bridging conda and PyPI Ecosystems

Talk Description
If you've ever wondered why pip install numpy and conda install numpy aren't the same thing, you've bumped into one of Python packaging's oldest fault lines. Conda and PyPI evolved to solve different problems, one for compiled scientific libraries, one for pure-Python code, and the gap between them has caused headaches ever since. We'll look at why the split happened, what's fundamentally different under the hood, and how the two ecosystems are starting to come together.

Agenda:
7:00pm - Opening announcements
7:10pm - Bridging conda and PyPI ecosystems
7:50pm - Q&A
