  1. I am really enjoying the Pixi package manager, pixi.sh , made by @prefix. We have been using conda at my work for managing the dependencies of our python application. It involves scientific data analysis so there are lots of dependencies, and it has been a challenge to keep things up to date. Pixi has nice support for cleanly defining the direct dependencies in the pixi.toml file, and then it automatically generates a lock file. There is a command to upgrade all the dependencies too. It's amazing! I'm just starting to use it, but it is helpful so far.
