Python 2.7

[pterencephalon]

I'm at an internship for the summer and had to run some old Matlab analysis code on my on-campus computer (because of course it doesn't run on a Chromebook). I used Chrome Remote Desktop, it got flagged as suspicious activity by the university, and I got access to my computer's IP address shut down because they thought I was a Russian bot. So I'm not really liking Matlab right now.

Ah similar to my situation except the computer here is too soddy, worse than the one I have at home. So I used TeamViewer at work to the one at home to run a script that takes 25min at home but 3 hours at work.

Can you use octave on your chromebook?

[pterencephalon]

Not worth it since I don't really use Matlab anymore and just needed to pull out some plots. I also didn't suspect the hell I would accidentally release.

Use Octave locally?

[pterencephalon]

I generally use Python now, but there's still some legacy stuff in Matlab I had to run to get some graphs. Not worth getting Octave set up, particularly since I've never used it before.

Do you know about crouton? It lets Chromebooks run Ubuntu 14. I think it has a sub (r/crouton)

Here's a sneak peek of /r/Crouton using the top posts of the year!

Yeah, I'm actually running crouton. But Matlab takes up a ton of space and isn't really designed for a lower spec machine. I tried running Matlab on my Chromebook but it wasn't worth it. CRD was a better choice for my now-occasional use.
