It isn’t as if they already don’t have to write a UNIX-like app to accommodate their tiny macOS userbase already so porting that to a proper *.deb package should be easy.

#ANACONDA FOR CHROMEBOOK ANDROID#

ChromeOS is going to be the dominant platform for remote learning so the technology providers are going to have no choice but to catch up, and they have their choice of PWA, Android and Linux apps to accommodate these users.

Maybe it isn’t the best approach for getting degrees in medicine or experimental physics but for most careers the ability to attend school while working and most important without spending 4-5 years of your life – and a loan-subsidized $100,000 – in some small college town is going to be increasingly appealing to a lot of people. Also, online college is only going to continue to grow. We have a literal generation of kids for whom Google Classroom on Chromebooks has been a major part of their education and they are going to want to retain that. (I do see that a major lockdown browser supplier is currently beta-testing support for ChromeOS.)Ĭonsidering how dominant ChromeOS has been in the education sector for so long addressing this blind spot should have been done long ago.

In my experience, the biggest issue with online study on platforms other than Windows and macOS isn’t the course materials but the occasional midterm and final exam that requires lockdown browsers and other anti-cheating software. Frankly, that’s what I’m trying to avoid because I have a pretty decent Linux machine hiding in my Chromebook. But it lets me use the Chromebook I have, thanks to Linux support, without splurging on a new computer costing $1,500, $2,000, or more. It’s not ideal, particularly since this is an online, remote program. Here’s a knowledge graph of some of my note topics in one of the apps to visualize how I’m using it:Įven if all else fails in some very specific use cases, I’ve got a plan B: Use the Chromebook for the 90% that I think I can use it for and use virtual machines in the Georgia Tech Computing Center. So they all run just fine on my Chromebook. I won’t say which I’m leaning towards because frankly, it doesn’t matter: They’re all available as either web and/or Linux apps. I’ve already evaluated a bunch of tools such as Notion, Roam Research, Obsidian, and others. I’m one of those people that’s really helped by note-taking. Maybe eGPUs will be a Chrome OS thing by then? Having the larger external SSD storage will help, but ideally, more memory would be beneficial. I’m thinking I’ll see this challenge with my Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning classes specifically. It appears I’ll need MATLAB and OpenCV, both of which are available or can be compiled for Linux, for example. The tougher aspect will be using libraries and applications that chug through massive amounts of data. I figure I should use the next two months to prep for the program as best I can.

I’m currently writing in C code on my Chromebook since I’ll need C skills for some of the classes.

#ANACONDA FOR CHROMEBOOK FULL#

My full stack To Do app with HTML CSS React Nodejs and cloud based ElephantSQL I started out doing Java code using Linux on Chromebooks and later added Python, JavaScript & React, and Node.js. In terms of being able to code on a Chromebook? Well, that’s not really a problem as I’ve already proven. I’ve looked into it but haven’t tried it yet. And I can share that storage with Linux.Įven better: There’s a method to run the Linux container on an external drive with Chromebooks. I still need to format and run a little maintenance on it but it’s showing up in the Chrome OS Files app. However, I have a 256 GB external Samsung SSD lying around from an old project and I already have it hooked up to my Chromebook. I’m a bit short on the local storage as this Chromebook only has 128 GB of SSD storage. So too does the Intel Core i5 processor inside.

And that amount of memory meets the minimum requirement.

#ANACONDA FOR CHROMEBOOK DRIVER#

My daily Chrome OS driver is still the Acer Chromebook Spin 13 with 16 GB of memory I bought in 2019. I’ve already checked the minimum hardware requirements for the program, which are as follows: (Although if you are pursuing a Masters in Computer Science, let me know!) But this could show many people that the ability to run Linux apps on a Chromebook is more useful and powerful than they might think. I realize that most Chromebook owners aren’t walking this path with me. Second, I want to see how far Linux on Chromebooks can take me down this path. But I think Linux on Chromebooks just might get me through the program.įirst, I’m on a budget and would prefer not to buy a new computer just for the Masters program. It might be a stretch and I’m not suggesting that a Chromebook is the best tool for this task.

And just like I did with my recent undergraduate Computer Science coursework, I’m thinking to try using my Chromebook for class. Starting this fall, I’ll be pursuing a Masters in Computer Science at Georgia Tech.
