The discussion though was about a specific OP asking if they can fix their
problem. One solution being suggested is to fix a deeper problem and simply
make their code work with a recent version of python 3.

The OP has not replied with any explanation as to why they are using
Python 2.7 and has not said whether they have any existing code that
only works with Python 2.7. It is unclear at this point whether there
is any reason that they shouldn't just install a newer version of
Python.

They are seeing a warning that explicitly says "You can upgrade to a
newer version of Python to solve this". I don't know whether that SSL
warning is directly connected to pip not finding any versions of numpy
but with the available information so far that seems like the first
thing to consider.

It is entirely reasonable to start by suggesting to use a newer
version of Python until some reason is given for not doing that.
