You might think that this is different with apple - it is not.

What do you mean? This service from google is for android devices and hence google devices.

This is what apple has done for years but nobody complainted

Slack is crap and matter most has mimicked all its worst parts.

Lua is used as built-in language in more and more apps. I use it on a daily basis for configuring and extending neovim

I need it for normal desktop use. Email, coding, browsing (no gaming)

I need it to be completely without fans due to the location where I need it.

Yes i would say 1000-1200euro tops for the budget with option to add more ram later. Would you think i3 is enough? I am not too familiar with the newer generations

Even having it there tells le that privacy is not a primary focus.

What a joke - calling itself privacy first with one hand while offering openAI integration with the other

It just javascript - the bloat part is Implicitly there when talking about js/TS.

+1 for Joplin. Works really great and has some good plugins if you need to extend it.

I prefer ISO layouts. ANSI somehow just seem inefficient to use. I habe layers for CODI g so I have my brackets/braces on the hometown along with other relevant keys. Long live custom keyboards

Not sure what you mean about your apples and pears comparison thing. Around here we have two levels of engineering - diploma engineer and civil engineer and that’s also the title you get.

Due to some countries not understanding this differentiation, we use the more common B.Sc for Diploma and M.Sc. for civil. You can then specialize in different areas like software, electronics, AI, health tech, and many more. So basically we have all the engineering courses + the special courses on top.

I hold an M.Sc. in software Engineering and it is not just a “software developer” but an actual masters degree from an engineering university. It’s a civil engineering degree with focus on software and systems that runs software (e.g embedded systems). It is a protected title by law in many countries. I think Americans started abusing the software Engineer title a decade or two ago and hence many think it is just a title anyone can use as they like.

Blocking stack overflow and start coding in C

Switched a long time ago - it’s just soooo much easier and I never have any problems

Want privacy? Don’t play games with internet requirements. It’s that easy. All of the other games are sucking whatever info they can get their hands on. It is not about anticheat - it is about money and data=money
