A bit of an aside, but CS and software engineering programs should be based on FOSS to the greatest extent possible, with proprietary software only being used when necessary. The idea that CS programs would use Windows or macOS by default is pretty horrifying to me.
- shepherdjerred 4y agoIt depends on your view on the program. If your goal is to produce graduates who are successful in the workforce you'd be doing them a grave disservice by having them use FOSS (e.g. a Linux-based OS).
- howinteresting 4y agoMy CS program was almost entirely FOSS and I turned out OK in the workforce, as did most of my classmates.
