Excel mostly, csv wasn’t much of a standard and thus it’s horrible to work with. We can fix that with a parquet importer and exporter!

Friends don’t let friends use csv in 2024. Excel needs a good parquet importer and exporter today. Ya hearing Microsoft? Quit pissing around with recall and build something useful!
Nah, just back to Gopher and 5k baud. As an aside: Gemini is pretty awesome
What would you replace it with? There are lessons to be learnt from the web, but to “fix” it is much harder
openSUSE worth a consideration. More frequent releases than debian, but still pretty conservative
Only older people. I know of none under 50 using it still. Most use kg from my experience these days
This deserves an hour of reading. My first pass is a criticism too sadly. Addition is too trivial, and every example is pure - this needs a rubber meets the road example to really spell out the benefits.
Philip Wadler story for you though: he taught me first year at uni and his first lecture he rips open his shirt and proclaims himself “Lambda Man!” - Haskell was a fun first semester
Okular
Pandas. Python’s only killer library imo

When does systemd stop? Linux without it is increasingly looking unlikely in the future. Are we not worried about it being a single point of failure and attack vector?
This isn’t a moan about the unix philosophy btw, but a genuine curiosity about how we split responsibilities in todays linux environment.
Me. Outlook on my windows work box is hard to beat imo. Personal? All android’s default and web-ui
It’ll be a cold day in hell before I give up my ~/.vimrc
why do you recommend other tools over things which are tested and will last way longer than whatever the current fad is? The best part of Jenkins is it’s ubiquitousness - writing code that will run forever is not to be sniffed at
You know what’s a hard pill to swallow for Jenkins haters? It’s likely older than your career, and is going to outlive you too. Like bash, and C, and gnu-utils.
Want to appear godlike in any org? Learn a tiny amount of groovy and read the pipelines pages - https://www.jenkins.io/doc/book/pipeline/
Jenkins is battle tested, Jenkins is likely already in your org, and replacing it for anything else is almost not worth the time from a strategic perspective. But it isn’t perfect, testing it in particular - a pain in the ass
So here’s the best tip: skinny Jenkinsfiles. When you use a sh: have it run a Makefile command, or your build tool command. Keep them short single line things. Don’t rely on massive ENVs. Dockerfiles for most stuff. Dynamic container agents in the cloud are actually good. Learn to use archiveArtifact, integrate with test report plugins. Learn about parallel pipelines.
Seems fine with anarchy to me
So Konsole rocks. Yakuake a great addition. But I’m a big KDE fanboy
Alacritty is also pretty fun, combined with openbox / LXDE
But for the $dayjob it’s Windows Terminal which is easily the best thing Microsoft has released in decades when combined with WSL
He ain’t wrong. Replacing X11 wasn’t a great idea and not invented here was all over Wayland, especially with the Mir proposals. SystemD also gets this accusation but people seem to like working in it/with it, and so doesn’t get the level of criticism now.
It will be really interesting to see if Wayland maintains momentum over the next few years, or if it’s own tech debt will cripple it. Ideally we want to see if we can bridge the Android divide in the GUI space imo, which Wayland may have more potential to do
