Novice programmer here.
I'm in a software dev course and the teachers recommend mac because they're more programmer friendly.
From my experience microsoft is a massive hassle to get anything done. I was trying to start a web server to test my webapp and it took me like 4-5 days of messing around and I still didn't get it to work. I ended up installing xampp and my webserver was working within 30 minutes of downloading, configuring, testing etc.
So for me open source (Linux) > Microsoft.
And apparantly Unix and Linux are very similar.
Also, you can only develop applications for ios/osx on a mac. You can also develop for windows and linux on a mac. Either in vm or dual boot. Same cant be said for windows and linux developers on a mac as macs are proprietary and locked down.
I like the hardware, mainly the keyboard and screen, but Mac OS X is replaceable.
Using mac over linux to get shit done. People would spend too much time ricing their setup for optimal experience instead of working if they were using linux. OSX provides everything you need and it just works.
>>54178608
Laptops are an old shitty PC format with a small screen and gimped hardware which is one generation behind desktop.
OS X is a the gayest possible OS. Everything in it prioritises UI and design so much it's vomit-inducing. You can see that when their dev team gets together it all starts with Ive showing them what the final product should "look like". Bleh.
You can stuff that shit in your ass.
>>54178585
What a fucking joke. That to me sounds like a conflict of interest if ever I've seen one.
Also you would expect something a bit more professional from him. That's something I'd do but I acknowledge that I'm neet and also an idiot.
>>54178648
>>54178541
>mac is more useful than gnu+linux for programming
Spotted the web "developers"
Unix environments are literally made for software development and are far better than Windows for example. Not only is OS X Unix but it comes with everything installed: ruby, python, perl, java, ssh, etc. You also get XCode for free, one of the best IDEs and the one that you need to make apps that generate the most revenue. The screen is very good, the trackpad and keyboard are excellent, and the battery lasts all day. Everything syncs to your phone automatically and you can even take calls on your laptop if you want. Default apps for the stuff you need like email are actually usable too.

If you have to ask why web "dev" isn't real developing then you are probably a web "dev".
What the fuck do you need some special OS for webdev, you pretentious faggots. You don't compile anything, you faggots. You literally don't need any special snowflake machine or OS to do webdev, you can do it on any OS or machine with desktop capabilities, that can run a text editor, a browser and a crappy local webserver.

- os x is unix-y
- developers don't get compensated or rewarded for spending time tinkering with a linux setup
- everything works sensibly out of the box
it's not that complicated. people aren't sending a principled message out into the universe when they buy and use shit; they're just buying and using shit that lets them get the job done faster/easier.
>>54178783
Why do you keep samefagging your post?
>>54178718
>>1) Why do you associate developping on mac with web dev?
Because webdev is seen as easier or less complicated than other forms of software development. It's basically another way for inseecure trolls to feel better about themselves by belittling others. Kind of like the "X is better than Y because I use it and you have to be smart to use it".
2) whats the problem with web dev?
Nothing, don't listen to the trolls.

webdev only? No, MacOS is POSIX and SUS compliant so it exposes the standard Unix system calls

>>54178624
You pretty much hit the nail on the head. OSX is the only option for iOS development. Developing for anything else tends to be platform-agnostic (unless you are a C# guy)
OSX is a heck of a lot easier than Windows to work with when using tools designed for Unix. Linux can be a nice option too depending on your hardware and your particular needs.
>>54178650
I'll agree that Apple is a shit company, but unfortunately their competition is even worse. RHEL or any other corporate distro can be just as nice if someone else is setting it up for you, But it won't always be compatible with your non-work-related applications

Sarcasm is hard to detect on here, but Apple is famous for solder joints breaking and GPUs frying on almost every generation of Macbook Pro after ~5 years. Compare failure rates to similarly priced toshiba or dell business machines. Not to mention failure on charging cables or rapidly dwindling battery life (which can't be replaced mind you). I've owned 3 MbPs, and each one started shitting itself after 4-5 years. My partner's windows machine is happily chugging along to obsolescence.
Apple makes very pretty computers but not very reliable ones.
OSX is the only valid reason to buy a Macbook. And it is definitely valid.

Show me the competitor with similar GPU performance who reaches greater hours of use on a regular basis.

2) Used for Word documents and Excel spreadsheets.
Yeah, entirely comparable.

Show me evidence that Apple batteries degrade at a faster rate than your business class laptops.
>(which can't be replaced mind you)
Apple batteries can be replaced, just not by the average consumer. Personally, I'll take the portability and enjoyable usability of a Mac over the oh-so-neat ability to swap out a battery after four years.
>I've owned 3 MbPs, and each one started shitting itself after 4-5 years
That's a good lifespan for a device that you're using hard.
>My partner's windows machine is happily chugging along to obsolescence.
Neat, so you can keep loading twenty meg websites and waiting five minutes for the conservatively spec'd CPU and GPU to draw them. What a life!

The *extremely* healthy market for used Apple products says you're wrong. Your opinion-based rant has nothing on the free market.

>>54179481
Computer engineers use Windows/Linux for sure, but as a dev who's used Windows for 15 years and Mac OS X for about 2 months, Mac OS X is undoubtedly superior when it comes to programming in terms of tools available, speed, and the general workflow environment (virtual desktops are much better on Mac, touchpad capabilities are strong, nice font rendering on editors are a tiny bonus)

>Sarcasm is hard to detect on here, but Apple is famous for solder joints breaking and GPUs frying on almost every generation of Macbook Pro after ~5 years.
I've never even heard of this. My MBP is 5 years old and runs all day long. A friend has my prior MB aluminum, 8 years old, still going strong. I also have a G4 TiBook, 14 years old, runs fine.
The only thing Apple is "known" for is shitty thermal paste on the CPUs. I think someone in China took one of the joke videos posted on /g/ seriously.
>Compare failure rates to similarly priced toshiba or dell business machines.
You have stats for that? From a reputable source? Post 'em.
>Not to mention failure on charging cables or rapidly dwindling battery life (which can't be replaced mind you).
My 5yo MBP still has 75% of its battery life. And I can replace the battery at any time. Apple has been soldering RAM and SSDs into their thinnest notebooks, which I hate, but I think you can replace the battery on any of them.

OSX was never Unix, and never will be.
It is UNIX compliant, which doesn't really mean much with 0% marketshare.
Enjoy your thread.

Keep your toddler meme OS to yourself. Just because our license lets anyone use our code doesn't mean we want anything to do with you or your spaghetti code.
>>54179526
>Doesn't change the fact that I've had to reflow the solder on my Apple machines a lot more often than my similar windows machines. They simply don't have adequate cooling for the amount of heat they generate, and over the years it shows.
I might actually give you that one. Re-paste the CPU and install speed fan and you will improve reliability over the long haul.

Sorry you're stuck with us.
Rhapsody
Rhapsody (like NEXTSTEP and OPENSTEP before it) uses a licensed version of BSD. This is to say, Rhapsody is using a pre-4.4BSD Lite version of BSD (where the restricted parts were removed). This limitation was one of the reasons that Apple created Darwin.

BSD is a fork of Unix dumbass.
Who the fuck is this trying to bait? Nearly all programmers use windows PCs and have linux vms. Especially if you are an engineer that messes around with shit like c#.
Some engineers at my company have macs but they are in the minority.
Source: I work at a big data company in silicon valley.
The only people with macs are idiotic women in HR and marketing.

Retard You can't read.

Calm down rajeesh, Microsoft didn't meet its quarterly earnings this last period, we must cut back on the online marketing.
Your average brogrammer is too stupid to use unix, too autist to make git work for windows and too trendy to be seen with anything else.
