OldAlias posted:don't take the difficulty of building something stupid like gentoo on the desktop as a point of pride. there are use cases for the os, i know a few shops that use it in production as a server. as previously mentioned you can learn server things with much less headaches on almost any other operating system. if you don't understand much of what you're doing setting it up you aren't going to learn anything, or be magically more wise by virtue of using it. if you want tape together a bunch of components yourself at least use arch, you'll actually finish the install in an afternoon why gentoo over centos or ugh, debian or ubuntu in tyool 2015

well it's not at the core of rhel/centos or Debian/Ubuntu and isn't going to be used in an embedded system so it's maximum potential usage is limited to hyperspergs

linux is great for embedded devices, servers and in VM instances that have the toolchains for them set up shame about embedded toolchains always giving setup instructions for a ubuntu LTS instead of something that actually has long term support like rhel though

my stepdads beer posted:lol what is the point of versions if the major breaking ones can happen at any random point release this is the best part of Qt: it actually feels like you're using a professionally designed API with a thought out architecture and release strategy. this is why its used in a lot of commercial products and other open source frameworks are not

VikingofRock posted:Absolutely do not try to do physics on a Windows machine, nothing will work and you will regret it. Ubuntu is also pretty annoying for scientific stuff because often you will want some up-to-date library but Ubuntu will be stuck with something from 2010, so you'll have to install from source. I would honestly go with Fedora--it shouldn't really be any slower than any other Linux, so the slowness was probably your VM (or your DE). It'll be up to date and secure, and RHEL linuxes are pretty professional feeling. Arch is nice too, but I wouldn't put it on a work laptop because stuff will break and if it happens while you are on a tight deadline you are boned unless you are real good at diagnosing and fixing Linux stuff real quick. i thought everyone in physics was using a mac these days

VikingofRock posted:IDK but apparently every piece of physics software uses it during normal use. you can fix your dynamic links if the authors distributed broken binaries alternatively your build scripts are broken

VikingofRock posted:I should have said "used it during normal use", since it's pretty much all fixed now. Also don't read my posts as an indictment of Apple or anything--I'm just talking about what went on in the physics world and giving an example of why some physicists were unhappy with Apple (even if that anger was arguably misplaced). Stuff like breaking a bunch of physics programs--even if those programs used bad practices--has some physicists leaning towards moving away from OSX and back to Linux, which is what started this whole discussion. well at least then your libraries being hosed up will be expected instead of a surprise
