wxMaxima is pretty good, depending on what you need it to do. I can do something likeload("plotdf")
plotdf([x^2-4*y,-y^3*(x-4*y*x)],[x,-10,10],[y,-10,10]);
to make something like pic related
It can also do symbolic differentiation and integrals and shit. For examplef(x,y,z) := x^3*y^2*z + (1/(z+x)) * 3*y;
f[xx] = diff(f(x,y,z),x,2);
that f[xx] (xx being the subscript) would be equal to the second order partial derivative with respect to x.

Honestly, Mathematica's plots are fucking ugly and inflexible. Mathematica is great for arbitrary precision math and symbolic stuff, and I use it myself like that, but for plots and data processing it is utter shit. Python with numpy, scipy and matplotlib is far easier to use (even though matplotlib is one of the shittiest library in existence, filled with inconsistencies and frustrating classes). And even if you prefer a somewhat polished GUI to go with it, I still would prefer MATLAB a thousand times over Mathematica for this purpose.

What do you mean? It's the only proper functional term-rewriting language in any common algebra system. Once your notebooks break 100 lines and include anything nontrivial all other systems become useless.
>>54409726

There's a refresh button. Also just script it, if you need it. The scripting api is there for a reason, cuck.
>>54409726
>potatoshop takes so fucking long to start that it needs to have a feature to refresh fonts when you add them to your system
I can count on a quadruple amputee's fingers the number of times I installed a font when I had an image editor opened.

this.
>>54409744
what does that have to with what I said?
when I'm testing out new fonts in a project I can just install them as I go in Photoshop, GIMP requires a total refresh which can take fucking forever depending on how many you have installed

It's probably not really about the language itself, but more about the fact that it is so much different from any other common language just for the sake of it.

I honestly don't know what the exact possibilities of Mathematica are, as I never seriously tried to do anything serious with it, but everything I've tried with it seemed terrible, stuff like changing fonts, having finished templates for plots, adding multiple subplots and more advanced stuff seemed horribly inaccessible and cumbersome. Alternatives are way easier to learn.
>>54410070

It's true though. A placebo would do literally nothing. Both f.lux and redshift do something, so by definition they are not placebos

No, a placebo acts on the placebo effect and gives you a cure when in fact there is nothing being done to aid you. Just like a pill is something you can swallow, f.lux and redshift are things you can notice. If you couldn't, you'd not get the placebo effect.
