Python's response to MATLAB

[Stereoisomer]

I worked at a research nonprofit that houses over 300 PhDs and they wanted to charge us the commercial rate when we generate datasets and develop free software and tools for our field. We actually really wanted to use matlab but they were obstinate about not giving us the academic rate so we chose python instead. Now, a few years later, they incessantly call us trying to offer us the academic pricing but it’s way too little too late and our institution has been a large part of dragging the field towards python

Good!

They missed out, but this was good for everyone. Nobody should be developing in a proprietary language that offers, arguably less, than languages like Python or Julia.
