I mean, I agree with you, I’d never pay for a Matlab license for myself if I ever decide to go the private engineering consultant route. Just sharing my experience that yes, it’s used in the professional world.
I’ve had more than one job where Matlab was used extensively, guess my coworkers and I aren’t real engineers.
I’d rather use something else, but if it’s what the group already uses, fine, I’ll do it
Also, I don’t do a ton of true programming on it. It’s a fancy calculator, and occasionally I make a GUI app with it
I am in fact an engineer and a nerd. Or as many of us like to call it, an enginerd
Edit: I wouldn’t call Matlab my favorite though… But yes I use it. I mean, I’m on Lemmy… Like loads of users here, I like FOSS. So I’d say python is probably my favorite
But why the bizarre spacing on the commas…
I’ve literally never heard anyone call it A.P.P. (and I mean that literally literally, not figuratively literally)
Is this a specific cultural thing? A generational thing? Geography based slang? Why would anyone do this.

All I heard was “you’re muscular”, going to be riding that high for a bit. Luckily no rotator cuff tear, probably just a bad sprain, will be back to bench press soon enough
How is it worse on the battery than wired chargers? I’m guessing heat?

Keep trying!
Edit: lick not kick… But kicking is probably dangerous too
I was taught this for panic attacks, except it’s hard to remember what to do when in the midst of a panic attack. Then I’d just get a bit distracted trying to remember which sense came next, mission failed successfully?
This was in January of 2023, right when chat gpt was becoming popular. So it’s possible, but I think it was just a crappy therapist, it was free through my employee benefits. ~6 sessions per year were free, I never used any more, found a real therapist.
Inside every man are two wolves…
Not even kidding. I had a therapist tell me this story once. I promptly found a new therapist.
Ok that’s a new one, never heard of a butt clench back pop.
I can do pretty much every joint aside from hips and elbows. The loudest are my messed up shoulders from when I used to swim competitively. I’ve had multiple doctors tell me it’s the loudest shoulder pop they’ve ever heard.

It’s usually streaming to my local TV, or laptop if I’m traveling. Working on a portable mini lab right now too, travel router + raspberry pi
piranhaconda@mander.xyzto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•That's all folks, Plex is starting to charge for sharingEnglish3·1 month agoYea, I should’ve clarified, was just throwing out a simple option if anyone hadn’t heard of that yet, it was easier than setting up openvpn or something on my router. You can also self host Headscale on your machine if you want to have more control over it.

Whoops, you’re right. I was thinking of proxmox, used to run that for a bit too
Yea I’m running a much leaner Debian on my laptop now. Base OS was very bare, slowly adding only what I need because it’s a 2016 laptop and noticeably slower on some more bloated OSs
So. Funny story. Back when I was incredibly new to Linux, I was trying to move everything from my downloads folder to somewhere else. So I navigated into the downloads directory on the command line and sent something like
“sudo mv /* ~/misc”
when I meant to type
“sudo mv ./* ~/misc”
Yea… That was a fun learning experience and hilarious way to utterly fuck everything on that machine. Luckily it was just an old laptop I’d installed Linux on to mess around and learn, no real damage done
