Ephemeral conda environments

I just wrote a simple blogpost talking about the frustration of installing conda for a single usage only.

I liked the idea of a "disposable conda environment" and if this sounds good to you, read it here (2min read):

#conda/#miniforge vs. #uv? What floats your boat? Fight!

Or in other words is there still a use for #conda that I don't see?

Today I learned that the conda package manager for python supports preprocessing selectors in its environment yaml files to add/delete lines for certain platforms.

A prime example is the installation of pytorch via the following environment.yml:
```
dependencies:
- python
- pip

For #Rstats users who manage environments with #conda, Anaconda is deprecating their R channel:

I'm disheartened to see this because of how valuable conda is and can be for R environments, especially in academia.

Conda ≠ PyPI: Why Conda Is More Than a Package Manager | conda.org Part 1 of the 'Conda Is Not PyPI' series—why conda is a multi-language user-space distribution, not just a Python package manager.

Conda ≠ PyPI

Conda isn’t just another Python package manager-it’s a multi-language, user-space distribution system.

In this 3-part series, we explore the fundamental differences between conda and PyPI.

Using #Linux software is easy, just typing a few words, like Granny's 3-line cake recipe.
Except it only works in Granny's kitchen using her utensils.
Setting up #Playwright on #Python on #Conda on a #RaspberryPi feels like building a replica of Granny's kitchen on a narrowboat so I can bake a cake.

I don't get why Python interpreter management (i.e. downloading and making available a whole Python interpreter) is so hyped for the new #uv tool? That happens in every #conda environment for over 10 years now? Maybe I'm missing something?

I never imagined getting used to a new #HPC infrastructure would be such a pain.
I got used to cli, ssh access, bash scrips before, but suddenly everything is handled via a GUI, everything is containerized.

AND ALL MY WORKFLOWS ARE BROKEN!

I don't even manage to set up a simple #conda environment.

I suspect I'm not the only one who was blissfully unaware of recent changes to #conda licensing. One claim in the
@fulcrumgenomics.com article is that academic users are only exempt from a paid license for the Anaconda repository 'when using it to teach a class', which would be deeply problematic..
