Switch to who?
- KingMob 2y agoGoogle's not that broken yet: https://pixi.sh/latest/ https://pixi.sh/latest/
- sureglymop 2y agoThat (main) page doesn't mention python once, so personally I was immediately wondering if this is an alternative to tools like uv or more generally tools like mise and asdf. It really isn't that clear so could you try to elaborate a bit?
- tasuki 2y agoHah, your comment persuaded me to look at that page, and honestly I also can't tell what it even is. I think it's supposed to be an alternative to `mise` and `asdf`, but it mostly mentions various Python tools? And doesn't seem to have an overview of what's available to install through Pixi? Then I clicked a link and got to https://prefix.dev/ https://prefix.dev/ ... > pixi is a fast software package manager built on top of the existing conda ecosystem. Spins up development environments quickly on Windows, macOS and Linux. Oh, build on top of conda. I am so going to stay the hell as far away from that as possible!
- KingMob 2y agoGoogle works for you too, friend.
- sureglymop 2y agoIn fact, I elaborated in my comment that not even the homepage of the project itself makes it clear. Why would google, an unrelated website make it any clearer...
- KingMob 2y agoThe broader point you're missing is, HN commenters are not your personal AI summarizers. You're literally on the Pixi website, and you know its name if you want to look for forums, feed it into Perplexity, etc.
