True, I myself prefer VS Codium but how many people use it? And some site like Coursera have VSCode on the web and it can’t be changed to VSCodium.
I just hope it’s not yet another electron or DOM based editor
Unfortunately, yes.

I am not saying otherwise. But do we still have a say?
Aren’t we past that point?
VS Code is Electron based and it can even be deployed in the cloud. We are talking about one of the most popular IDEs.
Interesting take!
What about maintainability of large code bases? JS even with TS tacked isn’t so great or at least not as good as Rust.
My bad. I can’t find the actually video but there exits a startup that shutdown because Rust/WASM performance wasn’t any better on top of that it’s was harder to develop with Rust. But as my edit to my previous comment shows things got better for Rust. It’s no longer the case.
IIRC a startup tried to exactly that… It’s wasn’t any faster and is actually harder to develop.
EDIT:
Sorry ignore these videos. I don’t remember which YouTube video it is. But more importantly Rust + WASM got really better than JS these days.
Is Linux officially supported by Apple on their desktops and laptops?
Yeah, C# and Rust, in their own ways, pretty much covered what D lang set out to do.
I see, makes sense.
reference compiler closed source
Is it still closed source? What is the reason?!
FYI: There is a Linux distro that bets heavily on D Lang, Serpent OS.
Unlike full RHEL source code, comment on this matter is likely to be consistently available for some time to come.
Ouch.
You can be sure software {…} will behave the same
never had that issue before, as long as they have the same version and config
Pure:
If you uninstall a software it might still have residues. If you install a faulty driver, even if you uninstall it, it might still permanently mess the system configuration.
But with nix if you uninstall something it’s like it never existed in your system.
Reproducible:
With nix all the apps in your OS are configure using a single or a few config file(s). So if you want to setup another system the same way you don’t have to go hunting for dotfiles.
avoid dependency conflicts
that’s not something I have to deal with on Debian/Mint.
Because you are recommended to use only software present in the repositories. If you are the kind of person who doesn’t need software outside of your OS repositories then of course you might never need to worry about dependencies. Other people are doing the job for you.
But if you want to software not in the repos and even if you want to package it for your OS you might run into dependency issues. Never with nix. It’s more for people who don’t mind packaging software for themselves (and the community) and don’t want to deal with nasty dependency issues.
This is very informative. Thank you!
Very smart on KDE’s part to form the KDE Free Qt Foundation.
A while ago there were some apprehensions regarding qt licensing. Are they resolved? What happened?
Thanks.
The link suggests it might be undone after GRUB updates. Maybe I will just edit the line and at the init level at the boot menu.
Ah, yes. I felt a bit uncomfortable posting here, glad to know linux4noobs exits here; subscribed.
