Amen!

I believe they want to divert all their resources into one huge Fortnite like success story. Something that can bring them a reliable recurring revenue stream.

I’ve had both installed on my machine without issues. Jumped back and forth until I decided Gnome wasn’t for me.

I prefer KDE. It works well out of the box and offers a good amount of customization. I tried gnome for a bit and didn’t like it.

What I like about Linux is that it’s easy to switch between DE. Just try out a few ones until you find something you like. I can recommend looking into Cinnamon (the DE of Mint).

Not the bees!

Gex saying ”it’s tail time!”

2 layers of abstraction is the gold standard

Why should I want simplicity? I want to make unnecessarily complex programs to gatekeep those pesky junior programmers.

And Sony managed to blunder it all away.

You’re my soda pop

Windows pretends it’s friendly, but in reality it’s just there to sell you Copilot 365 subscriptions.

I don’t want to miss out pressing the purchase button myself

Anything that isn’t the bootloader is just bloat

No one is going to take IntelliJ from me. Tab completion master race!

Margaret Hamilton: Discovered chaos theory and then wrote the software landing the first people on the moon

Next you won’t be able to own computers yourself. It’s all going to be rented through sky high subscription fees. Technofeudalism intensifies.

This is what’s most important. Allow for experimentation!

What works well for one team might not work well for your team. What worked well for your team 1 year ago might no longer be what you need now.

99% of the time it’s just a basic todo list

Have you noticed how every LinkedIn bro is talking about their vibe coding workflows, but no one is showing what they’ve made with vibe coding?

Writing “iteration” sounds absolutely perverse!

I like it to make it clear when the for loop is about iterating lists and when it’s not. For example, the iterations in Monte Carlo algorithms doesn’t correspond to items in a list.
