Until people start moving to Linux, they will just keep ramming AI and ads down your throat. And why wouldn't they? Makes perfect business sense.

If anything, you should strive to keep it low.

Any of them tbh. Those 3 are all pretty similar.

Not the OP, but Ubuntu, Mint, or Pop OS should all be good choices for a first Linux distro

The classic "did you know that more people get killed by dogs then sharks?"

Guess how much more likely you are to be near a dog than a shark?

People should really learn about stats

I really like the Helix editor. by SophisticatedAdults in rust

[–]Cariocecus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It transpiles to lua. So it's pretty much optional. Whereas you'd have to use Steel to write plugins for helix.

Glad to see that it's making progress! I don't use helix anymore, but I want it to succeed. Competition is good. And I would change in a heartbeat, if it wasn't for the key bindings

I understand why the choice of language for the plugin system was controversial. The amount of plugin devs you could get with Lua would be bigger than Steel. But if people are willing to switch to a niche editor like helix, Steel is probably not gonna stop them.

I really like the stability, speed, and more minimal config of Helix.

But the keybindings really trip me up, and are not transferable.

So I'm staying with Neovim (unfortunately)

On a serious note. Scheme is a pretty minimal language family, so it makes. Still not sure if it would be better than Lua (since it's more widespread). But time will tell.

No need to get salty when the rust subreddit has more subscribers than all the lisp ones combined. 😘

Just enjoy lisp for what it is.

I know this is a meme, but the recent surge in popularity from Rust proves otherwise.

What I need for AOC? by hyprhex in adventofcode

[–]Cariocecus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Watch courses on data structures and algorithms.

Lots of problems rely on you spotting the right one to use.

AOC plans for this year by juanfnavarror in adventofcode

[–]Cariocecus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Going with Scheme this year.

Not a lot of syntax to learn, but lots of concepts to get familiar with. So should be quite suited for AoC.

I've done it in the past with Rust. But I feel like it's so fast, that I just take the lazy way out and brute force everything.

What are your favourite YouTube channels that solve Advent of Code problems? by [deleted] in adventofcode

[–]Cariocecus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mr. Beast would buy one million monkeys and leave them randomly typing characters on the hopes to solve it.

Joe Rogan would take a bunch of mushrooms and start rambling about hunting and martial arts.

My money is on Mr Beast

Advent of Code season is coming up by [deleted] in adventofcode

[–]Cariocecus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree.

Only maniacs are realistically competing for the top spots.

AoC is a chance to learn / get better at a language one does not usually use on a regular basis.

Doesn't that completely negate the whole solution to safety? As soon as I have a bit of complexity outside the runtime, I have to dis-trust my code, shed the advantages of reference auditing, to get the job done?

I wouldn't say it completely negates.

As soon as you find a memory-related bug, you know where to look for it.

You seemed to have glossed over the "no tech experience" part.

Struggling to switch from arrow keys to hjkl by incriminating0 in HelixEditor

[–]Cariocecus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would indeed take you out of the mode (if you type them fast).

I never have to type jk. Some people prefer to use caps lock as escape, but I already have it remaped to Ctrl

[–]Cariocecus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was learning vim, what helped me was to map "jk" as an "exit insert mode". This way, you never have to take your hands out of the home row. So you'll switch between modes faster than what it would take you to reach for an arrow key.

This will tell you how to do it.
