  • You can listen to FM radio with gqrx relatively easily, if you can navigate through hundreds of input boxes.

    sudo apt-get install gqrx
    

    Anything more complicated will require some coding knowledge, unless someone already created a library for that specific thing.

    There is also a ready-made package to listen to GPS signal, unfortunately it needs an external amplifier and a proper antenna, because RTL-SDR is not sensitive enough for GPS.

    Just grab yourself some Linux Mint, and try to ignore Arch and Gentoo crowd here.

    Half of the apps you mentioned have Linux version right in the system package manager. Davinci has Linux version on their website.

    CorelDraw might be a problem, WineHQ lists it’s compatibility for the latest version as garbage, so you will probably need to switch to Inkscape.

    Anyway, I heard about this new company called Linux

    Pedantic explanation about GNU/Linux is coming in 3… 2… 1…





  • That’s exactly the difference. The business needs to sell shit, so your management needs you to get the shit done, just good enough quality to sell it, because otherwise you’re burning them money in salary.

    Take any of your hobby projects, and ask yourself - ‘How do I sell this thing?’. You’ll arrive at all the same problems you are seeing in your company. Good managers will explain this and let developers make their own decisions and take part in business processes, bad managers will just dictate which buttons you need to press on your keyboard.

    Lines of code is a really ancient metric for managers who are totally ignorant of technology, I was just putting it here for emphasis.
