Many people get it, it is quite normal, I think. The trick to avoid is to practice mental hygiene - don’t let the shit come in. Ponder over things that you can influence, be a kind person and help others. That way you see the world in a better light and it’s good for your sleep. You won’t solve the problems of humankind anyway. And get out of industries that aren’t kind to the elder.
That’s why I included Perl, it is always there. Just don’t code as if you were in the nineties and Perl is a perfectly legitimate language, even more so for shell tasks. Bad and good doesn’t depend so much on the language but the coder.
Why not use Perl or python for scripting tasks? Bash script is terrible imo.
Fzf doesn’t need fish, though. I use it with bash.
See what happens,when this attitude makes it go away!
Good question! I’d say that the fediverse is semantically much more complex and thus allows for more progress. It’s like the difference between gopher and the web.
Stable, in this context, only means, that there are no major version jumps. So, you won’t update from, say, version 3.4.9 to 4.0 if that comes out, but instead to 3.4.10, which provides stability, but no new features. It depends a lot on your usage profile, if this is important to you. In that sense, the AUR usually isn’t very stable – but that can be seen as a good thing. If it is significant, typically, you can find pinned versions, too, just as you are still able to download python 2 (not supported for years, but it’s there, stable).
Why do you assume, they had no such concern? There were seals to ensure authenticity and avoid man in the middle attacks. There were encoded messages, smoke, flags, light and sound signals. Trusted couriers, pigeons, etc …
1993 or so with some Slackware CDs, i bought, because I had no internet back then. Took ages to compile, and never got past the black x on the checkered background when I tried to startx. Console worked nicely though and I loved the bash (?) experience with command history and all that. However, no games, very little software, and I didn’t program back than. It took quite some time to be able to use those things productively as a user.
Personally, I am very happy with GNOME’s design decisions. Most beautiful UI out there!
Nr/nd? Context please…
I have one and it’s very nice.
