Congrats to Travis and the rest of the Continuum analytics team on the Darpa XDATA funding!
As someone working to build tools in the same space as Continuum (and perhaps as a competitor), having your competitors (Continuum) be intelligent, nice, interesting folks who really understand the problem domain is pretty darn great.
Point being: the numerical computing / data analysis landscape is going to be seing a lot of great tools emerge and/or mature over the next year, and I have no doubt that 30-50% of them will be coming from Continuum Analytics. [edit: to the substantial enrichment of high level tools for extending numerical within python / and likely generally!]
I can only hope that I execute my tool building work at WellPosed well enough that I can call them a competitor for years to come!
