I've been using bash since the 90's and I'm still a n00b. I'm still not constructing scripts in my head before I write them down. It's still
$ some command $ some command | more commands $ some command | more commands | even more commands
At some point I was making progress and I got to where this was happening:
$ some command $ some command | more commands $ even more commands $(some command | more commands)
Whatever I do, I still start with a very general command and add pipes. I don't know what I want before I see it.
I have recently started to rewrite some of my old scripts to get to the point earlier. It works when I'm writing in other languages, but in shell languages it's hard to get rid of this nasty habit of starting with the most general command and accumulate pipes.
windows users making fun of #Linux's reliability is a total joke. I'm working with windows for the first time in about four years, natively installed on a brand new machine that ships with windows and have only installed a handful of applications, and I can't even count the number of crashes I've experienced.
the same application (Blender LTS) rarely crashes on #guix. it gets dragged to a halt, but it usually doesn't crash. meanwhile, on windows with a much faster GPU, CPU and the same amount of RAM, if I upsample a curve too hastily, it's a goner every time.
@rml Sure, because "doesn't wake up from various sleep states" isn't a problem that has been plaguing Linux since the dawn of itself. You did the same mistake people complaining about energy management in Linux do on Windows: You didn't do your research on the hardware.
@rml It works for you, it doesn't work for you, it's what you see and what you don't see, but here we are, listening to what "windows users" are saying. This "us vs. them" bullshit is really not helping anyone.
SUSE is committed to working with the open source community to develop a long-term, enduring compatible alternative for RHEL and CentOS users. SUSE plans to contribute this project to an open source foundation, which will provide ongoing free access to alternative source code.
The problem with modern distributions is that nobody ever has to deal with their own kernel anymore and nobody learns how to trim one down and build it.
