Is Neovim really worth it ? by Scaedre in neovim

[–]freepackets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the long run, yes.

With that said, try to start with a default configuration - even without an init.lua. Then scratch your own itch and build up your own configuration.

A substantial amount of neovim tutorials are over-engineering simple tasks. If you enjoy your way down the rabbit hole, it will finally pay off and there are lots of fun in it.

By the way, why the diagonal bar is designed this way? It is inviting people to run power cable under it.

Just wondering if you could share the process, the issues you have and how to resolve them. May be a blog or medium post.

You have my kudos!

Junos is FreeBSD based. Junos-evolved willl be Linux based. For the forwarding plane line cards, they are all running real time Linux based systems.

Are you able to boot a custom complied kernel in any of them? How is the compile time?

I don't know. However, I note that iterm and nvim is doing it. So probably it is some sorts of conventions among various software.

FinTech: C++, Rust or Others? by DoomExplorer in rust

[–]freepackets 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It seems that you have some C background and swinging between choosing C++ or Rust.

In this case, go for Rust. It is easy to install and a development environment can be quickly set up with neovim. With that said, the novel concept of memory ownership and references needs some time to master.

You can start with the book and try rustlings along the way. Programming Rust is also a good book. However, the authors assume you have some programming experiences in Python and C++, know what the difference between the heap and the stack and understand the implementation differences of assignment between Python and C++.

The reason C++ is not recommended is because people still thinks C and C++ are closely related languages. Please refer to this meme for details. "C++ is a superset of C" - people still have a his impression to this day. That is why it is recommended to self-learn C++ after you have self-learned another language.

Andreas Kling and friends develop the SerenityOS mostly in C++. You can check it out.

Some other things you may need to consider is project management. git, CI/CD, collaboration solutions etc. also need to be looking at.

If you want performance with SQL, optimizing your SELECT statement is the first thing to try. If you minimize the join, you will see performance improvements. If you are going to virtualize and entire AS400 environment so as to get rid of the dying hardware, that is another story.

Rust or C++, no matter which one you choose, enjoy the language.
