    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.

    It's just so weird to me. I've worked at a few big companies and Matlab was just kind of out of the question at any of them. It was Excel or Python

      I am old and a nerd and I don’t see Perl on here.

      Wait… is it the tiny camel at the bottom?

      Yep. It has no logo of its own, so it sometimes gets identified by the animal on the O'Reilly book

        As an engineer this is extremely offensive. MATLAB is for fucking tryhards.

                Why hate? It allows for easy functional programming with vectorized operations that bind to C for efficiency.

                  I don’t think I like any of them. This is just a job to me.

                  Just saw react in the “language” list and now I’m definitely a nerd.

                    if you have a favorite language that isn't on this, you're a super nerd.

                        What's the difference between a scripting language and a programming language?

                        One is:

                        • a scripting/interpreted language needs an interpreter to be installed on the target system in order to run
                        • a programming/compiled language needs a compiler on the host machine and will run as-is standalone in the target machine

                        /me ducks for cover

                              Most of these are scripting languages. Some are even markup languages. It's like the meme creator didn't even know what a programming language was.

                                  Still a language to make the computer do something. Thus, programming language. Scripts are programs.

                                    Thankfully I suck at that, but holy crap it is prevelent in this industry. The alcohol abuse is cray. Doesn't help when you travel constantly. I don't travel much anymore, but the people who spend 90+% of the year in the field, while having a family, are fundamentally broken. Fun to party once in a while, but when they do this shit multiple times a week, I don't understand.

                                          Couldn't agree more. Field service is one hell of a drug. Money's good, variety is fun, the chaos and travel are fun too, and you learn a lot quickly. The latter often because some or all of the mfg. plant you're visiting needs you to fix your stuff so they can run, and no one is coming to BFE to help you, lol.

                                          But that all wears off, in time, and it starts to take a huge toll like you described. Never met a long term field service engineer with a healthy home life, or with their health in general. I got out because both of mine were crumbling, for real.
