Ironically, if we had data for Antarctica, I wonder if it'd be damn-near 100% with all the researchers there.
Researchers probably run windows or Mac, but I’d guess the admins who maintain their infrastructure probably run Linux for themselves and on the infrastructure. And probably various tools that control things like core samplers and shit.
I use Linux. I'm a researcher, not IT. Many of my colleagues use Linux.
And anyone in academia who uses a data set knows python. Sometimes a lot of python.
