I started lemdro.id. Pretty cool domain name, right?

  • I think if you can't admit the obvious problems with the DPRK then there is no conversation to be had here.

    China, I understand. North Korea? I do not.

    I certainly do not think that calling me racist out of the blue is helping your case, either.

  • you're losing a lot of nuances here, just want to add for other readers.

    there was and are good reasons for why code wasn't accepted

  • I think it's worth acknowledging that we're in a bubble here. The world outside does not reflect our opinions here in large part.

  • I liked it

  • MDM on MacOS still kinda sucks compared to Linux or Windows. I mean, it's fine. But they genuinely have work to do there

  • this MacBook is going to have 10x the battery life of your used laptop, and weigh less.

    plus, it's brand new so it has a warranty and doesn't require people to spend time searching for a good deal.

    this is an excellent product launch at a good price and it is gonna sell like hotcakes

  • this has been well covered by now. just cause it works in product x, doesn't mean it was implemented correctly in product y

  • Hey, you seem to think I actually like this situation - but I don't.

    I actually fully agree, but the reality is that the original post is not representing anything meaningful for moving people off of Matlab -> Octave. The tweet is over-dramatic and also written by AI.

    I think it's worth being critical instead of falling into a circle jerk here. Octave has a ways to go before it can kill Matlab. I'd love to see it happen!

  • it's hard to hide that kind of thing in open source software, and grapheneos is open source. I'm not sure this is a valid argument here

  • yeah, I don't think people really understand what I was saying.

    I love Octave, I hate Matlab. but the price isn't high enough to cause companies to shift in any meaningful way (especially in aerospace).

    The twitter post feels like an AI written fever dream of Matlab dying (it isn't x, it's y).

    Grad students have license provided by their university, research lab, or company. Doesn't mean I like it...

  • agreed!

  • I think it's a little insulting. When I was a student I got Matlab free through my university.

    At a job, your employer pays for Matlab if they expect you to use it.

    Frankly, I hate Matlab. But it is silly to act like the cost of an individual license is much of a factor, that cost is so little compared to your salary most companies do not care
