I'm on mobile and missed it. My bad for the spam.

Thanks! I want to bring this up as a discussion point when I get the chance at work.

I can't find a date on this letter - is it recent?

1.5M is a laughably small number compared to the value that financial institutions extract from just having PyPi available. I know my company, not financial but still large, has containers hitting it every day. How do we get these groups to fork over even just a small amount?

As someone who is 12 years out from completing a PHD in chemical engineering, this hurts to read today. Because it's so true.

I was a great student who became a middling researcher. I come from a privileged background - my younger sibling has already achieved greater success than I ever will, largely from choosing to follow the family business. I've poured tons of extra time outside work into honing my software and ml skills. While I do like what I do, and I am respected at work, that doesn't translate into promotions, success, or justification for dragging my poor wife all over the country. What a fool I was.

Ugh. I didn't need to read this today.
