What is the problem?

The videos on how to install Anaconda are out of date (using resources from continuum.io)

Hi, @maneesha

Do you know if one of the other lessons has good videos we can use to replace these, or would it be best just to remove the video guidance and create a help wanted issue to locate new ones?

Alternatively, we could also just consider removing them altogether an rely on whatever guidance is built into the workshop website template. It seems wasteful to keep juggling this int two places given how quickly video can go stale. What do you think?

[maneesha]

Tagging @sstevens2 who originally created these videos to see if she has any other resources to recommend.

My personal preference would be to remove them if we can not realistically keep them up to date.

[quist00]

That is also my personal preference, so I will remove them but leave the issue open for @sstevens2 feedback since I would still like to know the current best option to recommend when teaching if there is one despite not baking it into the repository. : )

I agree it seems like a good idea to remove them and create an issue if anyone wants to make new videos. I've been hoping to update them for many years and not found the time. The videos are generally so hard to keep up to date that I don't know if it will be sustainable to keep replacing them.

I'd also say we should remove all the videos from the swc install directions in the workshop website as well. I think they are all pretty out of date. I'm out on leave right now though so I'd prefer that someone else put in a PR on that if possible.

Can you clarify, are you suggesting here https://github.com/carpentries/workshop-template/blob/gh-pages/_includes/swc/setup.html for the additional removals?

[sstevens2]

Yes, that is the other location to remove it. Sorry that wasn't very specific.
