- I like to spice up things with gnuplot every now and then. - I have relied on Gnuplot ASCII output over SSH to get me through hard times - My brother in christ you can transfer files over ssh - Ain’t nobody got time for that. 
- Lol I am aware. I just needed a way to quickly scatterplot stuff for intuition. The ASCII output was perfect and I didn’t waste 30 seconds futzing with scp each time I needed to visualize another slice of data. 
 
- That’s hardcore. 
 
 
- Thank god nobody made u use matlab - ✅figures ❌RAM - My MATLAB colleagues were jealous of my Matplotlib because the company didn’t purchase the plotting add-on… 
 
 
- I first used Matplotlib 10 years ago. It was unintuitive and very slowly redrawing the whole plot each time you tried to zoom. - I’m using it right now, and I’m happy to report that it kept to it’s time-honored tradition - zoom is still piss-slow even on my fancy new PC with 12 cores. - Maybe in the next 20 years, matplotlib devs will discover wonders of tile cache. 
- Plotly ❤️❤️ - i have a disgusting amount of the plotly api memorized 
 
- you know you are addicted when you feel compelled to make a line plot from four data points - If they define a function that’s fair. I’m of the firm belief that data are points and models/functions are lines.
