Cleaning up your Anaconda installations
If you've been using Anaconda Python for a while, and been creating multiple environments and adding/removing packages, you may have noticed that it's starting to take up a lot of disk space (sometimes tens of GBs).

| Anaconda installation can get big |
One reason is that anaconda environments are completely isolated workspaces from each other with their own copy of Python. So, the more environments you have, the larger the space needed by anaconda. But the other reason is that anaconda keeps a cache of the package files, tarballs etc. of the packages you've installed. This is great when you need to reinstall the same packages. But, over time, the space can add up.
So, how do we clean up this cache and regain some disk space?
