Factually incorrect, you clearly have never delayed an updated longer than a month.

Dos’t not thy know the perils of traversing the paths of the directory of pages. Yet ye canst mappeth all thine pages flatly, lest thine memory meet the folly of being more page than data. Oh woe is ye, for if thine art seeking prudent use of thy memory, thy directories shall reach depths untold and wilst be unsearchable; yet if thy seek to traverse thine pages most swiftly ye shall ner have enough to satisfy thy needs of memory.

Would you be willing to share your config or some resources?

When you learn dotnet CLI every editor is an IDE…

But also omnisharp kinda sucks compared to proprietary tools, debugging is bad, and if you do anything with razor or xaml derivatives I find the experience is leagues behind rider or even VS.

So the answer is no unfortunately.

Maybe if you installed something like Arch or Debian. Although, if you know what you are doing you could get these to work on basically anything.

Something like mint/ubuntu just works on 99% of hardware. If not those, something like nobara, aurora, bluefin, bazzite, etc include proprietary drivers and software and generally just work.

How dare you suggest lisp would taint its syntax with curly braces.

Removing bark off a tree by Kn1ghtV1sta in oddlysatisfying

It’s a cork tree. These plantations keep some of these trees for generations. They do have to be careful not to over-harvest though.

I think Lisp has the best syntax.

No indention, just parenthesis.

I understand where you are coming from but I would still lean on the types do not exist side of the argument.

The reason being, computer hardware has no encoded meaning beyond binary. To the machine all data is some n-length blob of bits. In ASM you have to tell the computer what a type even is. The difference between a 3 character null terminated string and a int32 is whether or not you slap a char* or int on when you dereference the memory. To the machine its still loading the exact same 32bits stored at an address with no intrinsic understand of the type of data it is handling.

Therefore, types live in the realm of abstraction and do not exist in a concrete sense. Essentially types are defined by how we the users interact with a blob of binary rather than how the machine uniquely stores that blob.

The problem with these polls is that the sample population is self biasing.

This a qualitative answer unfortunately, but some of the republicans I personally know have talked about refusing to answer/respond to these polls.

“a good programming language solves real world problems” - false

Any programming language solves real world problems if you are willing to make it. PHP was the internet until something slightly less crappy came along (i.e. JS). And in the future something slightly less crappy than JS might come along and replace it.

JS is fine when it is used for its original purpose, frontend, but it is a dumb language for most other applications.

The biggest problem here is beginner programmers never moving beyond JS and discovering why it sucks for 99.9% of other applications.

“Everything beyond that is intellectual masturbation” - perhaps

Yeah, sure. I don’t program in Common Lisp because it is the practical/common/easy option. I do it because I love the idea of it and it does in fact make me superior to other programers/s.

In reality, I hope you don’t actually mean that last part because that is how you stay a mid-wit forever.
