I landed on oh-my-bash, zoxide and some other utilities. It really improved my terminal experience.
That sounds great but I don’t want to keep the ‘rm’ muscle memory in case I’m on another computer and delete something important. Having to use ‘trash’ instead makes you more conscious when it errors out.
Alias rm to echo and install trash. Saved me many times.
Yeah at this point I’ve aliased ‘rm’ to nothing and exclusively use ‘trash’.
I’d still argue that you’re not the typical “buys computer at a store” user.
To be fair, typical people also don’t swap their GPU.
A lot of people are telling you to not use manjaro and to use endeavour instead. I’ve been using manjaro for 6 years and it’s fine, in the end they offer very similar user experience.
For package management, I do everything with yay now. Just calling it on it’s own will update everything, with keywords it will search and ask you what to install. The only flag you have to know is -R to uninstall.
For the shell bash is perfectly fine, but if you want more features take a look at ohmybash.
I’ve been running it on my work laptop for 6 years at this point and I’ve had no major issues I couldn’t solve.
Having said that, I recently switched my gaming rig over to endeavour and it’s been great.
I’m a scientist that has been coding almost exclusively in Python for the past decade and I strongly disagree.
Python is great at being the glue that holds everything together, and everything crunchy part of the program is being handled by a library anyways.
I code with two terminals, one for iPython and one for vim. And you don’t need anything else. The beauty of Python is that it’s not a language that is so full of boilerplate that you need an IDE to type it for you to be remotely productive.
Overall, Python is a language made to be used by people that need to make something that just works and don’t need to spend years learning programming paradigms and industry practices. Fortran and C are so unwieldy in comparison and everything more modern lacks the expansive and diverse libraries of Python.
It can break if you disable telemetry.
I personally feel like I have to fight Windows more and more to have it behave like I want it to. You still spend time to configure your Linux of choice, but it doesn’t feel adversary.
I was using Atom, but that died. I work with both Python and Fortran, and VSCode works for my usecase, but I’m open to suggestions.
I feel vindicated that Vista and 8 where my favorite as well.
