not only likely… i read somewhere that make more money with linux stuff on azure than with anything else they do can’t find the source rn tho

So, of the two JavaScript, because motivating them to program is more important than anything else if they have no prior knowledge. javascript has great tooling and faaar less hurdles to get something going then C. Personally i’d go with TypeScript if it has to be anything in this family of languages, because making them think of types early on is helpful when moving to anything more than little web apps. If any other languages are considered, i’d go with python with type hints because it forces you to format your code somewhat readably (believe me, i know that it’s possible to write unreadable python code) but is really low on boilerplate, has great tooling (at least third-party, use uv) as well as stellar IDE support and allows for multiple different paradigms to be explored.

forbidden oreo

this is the way

even on this joke list:

NixOS Erasure!

¯_(ツ)_/¯

yes but also superior beings who cannot connect to their erstwhile siblings anymore

Meanwhile NixOS users

thank you

i expected this sooner xD

and the g in gnu also stands for gnu

i mean maybe some distros will add something, i don’t know. and i don’t care because i don’t have to. shit like that is deinstalled faster than an llm can print an emdash.

hmmm love me some bonciles torky

everybody on the internet is a javascript user! do you even develop, bro?

this is fucking gold 🤣

i use nix so i’m of the chart! did not have a system break in a year even when on unstable

ok call me “no one” then, you someone

where’s nixos on the graph?

I have to say the immutability isn’t what got me. It’s that i can propagate changes to all my machines (i have three, with different configurations of work and private users) without fuss. i have one git repo that contains the Config and all i do is git pull && sudo nixos-rebuild switch after i login and it’s done. reinstalling is also somewhat trivial and once the installer is done everything is as i want it to be. which is just bonkers to me. i love it to bits. before i had a super brittle system of dotfiles that regularly broke. nevermore

rebooted, restored, invincible!

There are no dotfiles! There is only the Config!
