Apparently Anaconda is ActiveStating people and this may very well prove to be a significant issue in the dominance of Python in certain data science fields. Bioinformatics is a very good example of a field that got addicted to Python and the reliance of Anaconda is coming back to bite (the post and the responses raise the prospect of nightmarish scenarios for other environment managers like conda-forge/buoconda). The immediate solution for dependency management is to dockerize everything, but many tools require individual docker containers. If you have to combine more than one of them, chances are that your path will not be a rosy one.
