Hi team! How's our relationship with Valeriy Manokhin? I saw that he's giving a course on time series forecasting from May 19-June 5 and he's probably going to be using our open-source libraries. Should we reach out and offer some help?

He does not seem to be a fan of Time Series FMs.

I've had a bad experience with him and in general I think he's toxic (his beliefs are more of a religion rather than scientific). He is unwilling to accept any evidence that contradicts his opinions. I don't think offering help hurts, but we should be aware that it can backfire. E.g. he is the kind of person that if we publish some message about a new foundation model or another message he doesn't approve of, he'll use the fact that we helped him against us in a loud, destructive manner.

Fair enough.
