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 permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 8 child comments replies: [–] protogen420@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 8 months ago (1 child) "got for free" you know your uni is payong for it most likely? with either tuition fees, or even subsidies from those tax payers, in the second case, Matlab is stealing literally the people's money do I have to tell you why this is clearly fucking insane? Do I have to tell you that most universities don't have the fucking budget to pay for corporate slop software that forces lockin into their ecosystem? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] cole@lemdro.id -1 points 8 months ago 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! permalink fedilink source parent [–] Valmond@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 point 8 months ago (5 children) "I got it for free" "500€ isn't that much" You're digging that hole you put yourself in deeper. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 5 child comments replies: [–] cole@lemdro.id -1 points 8 months ago (4 children) Hey, I think you aren't really understanding my stance here.
