What to do when pip & conda overlaps?

I have a reasonable understanding of the difference between conda installand pip install; As pipinstalls only python packages, but condacan install non-python binaries. However, there is some overlap between the two elements. This makes me ask:

What is a rule of thumb about whether to use condaor pipif both offer a package?

For example, it TensorFlowis available in both repositories, but from tensor documents :

in Anaconda, we recommend installing TensorFlow with pip install, rather than with, a command conda install.

But there are many other packages that overlap, for example numpy, scipyetc.


However, https://stackoverflow.com/a/414416/11/11 suggests that it conda installshould be the default, and pipshould only be used if the package is not available from conda. Is this true even for TensorFlowor other python-only packages?
