MATLAB Central has been great community-based MATLAB resources, but you can now access its content programmatically via the public API, and I created a MATLAB function to take advantage of that. You can learn more here https://api.mathworks.com/community
Example:
data = searchMATLABCentral("plotting",scope="matlab-answers",sort_order="created desc",created_after=datetime("2023-01-01"));
T = struct2table(data.items);
T(:,["created_date","title","is_answered"])
Output
Function
function results = searchMATLABCentral(query,options)
% SEARCGMATLABCENTRAL retrieves content of the MATLAB Central for a given
% query and returns the result as a struct.
% The function uses MathWorks RESTful API to search for content.
% The API is rate limited via IP throttling. No authentication is required.
% See API documentation for more details https://api.mathworks.com/community
%
% Input Arguments:
%
% query (string) - Required. The search query string.
% scope (string) - Optional. Specify the artifact. If not specified,
% the scope defaults to 'matlab-answers'.
% Other options include 'file-exchange','blogs','cody',
% 'community-highlights', and 'community-contests'.
% tags (string) - Optional. Specify a comma-separated list of tags.
% created_before (datetime) - Optional. Specify the last date in the results
% created_after (datetime) - Optional. Specify the first date in the results
% sort_order (string) - Optional. Speficy the order of the results.
% If not specified, it defaults to "relevance desc".
% Other options include 'created asc', 'created desc',
% 'updated asc','updated desc', 'relevance asc',
% and 'relevance desc'.
% page (integer) - Optional. Specify the page to retrieve.
% If the 'has_more' field in the result is positive,
% increment this argument to retrieve the next page.
% count (integer) - Optional. Specify the number of results as a value
% between 1 and 50; The default is 10.
%
% Output Arguments:
%
% results (struct) - Structure array containing the results of the search.
% validate input arguments

Congratulations, @John D'Errico for winning the Editor's Pick badge awarded for MATLAB Answers, in recognition of your awesome solution in What to be chosen c so that all elements of matrix B will be a round number. B=A.c; where A is the matrix of non integers. The OP has not accepted his answer yet, but
As with other nominated answers, you provided detailed explanation with examples to show that what the OP is looking for may not be possible in some cases.
Unfortunately, you can only get this badge once - perhaps this raises a question about how this award should work. In any case, we nonetheles appreciate your ongoing effort to help other users in the community. Thnk you so much!

Object Detection and Tracking using Computer Vision
In this event, Matt and Megan show you how to perform one or the more difficult task in computer vision: tracking multiple objects.
They will walk through an example from the new Coursera specialization, Computer Vision for Engineering and Science. The code and video used in the example are available to those who sign up for the specialization.

Congratulations, @John D'Errico for winning the Editor's Pick badge awarded for MATLAB Answers, in recognition of your awesome solution in How to fit a biexponential decay function
You explained the general process of solving this problem and explored several options until he got to the a good model. This is very instructional and would be useful for anyone who run into similar problems.
Unfortunately, you can only get this badge once - so there will be no new badge for you this time, but we nonetheles appreciate your ongoing effort to help other users in the community. Thnk you so much!

MathWorks is hosting the QIT Boston event to discuss Ethical AI for the LGBTQ+ community on its Lakeside campus, hosted by our own Heather Gorr, PhD.
AI is known to learn biases from the various sources that affects our daily lives, and in particular minority groups like LGBTQ+.
Join the discussion to what the impacts are, where the biases come from, and how to mitigate as you develop AI.

We are thrilled to share that more than 400,000 people have subscribed to MATLAB YouTube channel to watch MATLAB and Simulink videos!🎉🙌🥳🎉🙌🥳🎉🙌🥳
The channel started way back in 2006, only one year after YouTube launched. Since then, people have spent more than 2.3 million hours watching our videos. It took us 12 years to reach 100k subscribers, two more years to get to 200k subs, and only 2 years to double that and grow to 400,000!
Did you know that in 2021, there were almost 10 million views to our videos on YouTube?
Thank you again for supporting our community inside and outside MATLAB Central!
Grace Hopper Celebration is an event that celebrates the legacy of Grace Hopper who acted as the inspiration for generations of women in tech. My female coworkers in highly accomplished technical roles will be speaking at the event. Come meet, connect and network with them at GHC22.
Congratulations, Walter, for this amazing run!
You hit 100k points on 14th Aug, 2020. So, these 25k points took just over 2 years to earn.

If you are interested in developing algorithms for robotics and autonomous systems using ROS, there is an upcoming livestream just for you.
In this livestream, Jose Avendano Arbelaez and Ronal George will show you how to build and deploy autonomous algorithms using ROS. Using examples, they will show how to interface with ROS networks using publishers and subscribers, build algorithms for mapping, planning and navigation and deploying algorithms as ROS nodes.
