    My 2018 news is that I am leaving full time employment by Anaconda as of today. I will be working on improving OSS sustainability through non-profit work, and starting a new services/product incubation company to help organizations make better use of OSS and AI/ML. More to come.

    Fantastic project integrating all Python visualization tools into easily composable dashboard -- panel.pyviz.org . This is awesome work from the PyViz team @anacondainc. #Python #visualization

    I've been impressed recently with Chainer chainer.org and CuPy cupy.chainer.org. I like the fact that NumPy *is* the CPU implementation for Chainer and CuPy is NumPy on GPU. #NumPy #Python #MachineLearning #ArtificalIntelligence

    Given I've spent many years actually writing many popular C-extensions for Python, please take note of this strong recommendation!

    Grateful that so many more people will be getting credit for NumPy and its progress. Thank you to the people driving this. We have just started and will continue to forge ahead in promoting community-driven open-source @quansightai, @openteamsinc, and @FairOSS_PBC.

    I donated to 'Help Ray fight cancer' - gf.me/u/ntdbag via @gofundme. If you use @condaforge or the Anaconda Distribution from @anacondainc, you have benefitted directly from Ray's work. He needs our help now. Please give what you can and Anaconda will match it 1:1.
