Void pointer should be avoided anyways. Even I find them rare and I mostly work in embedded RTOS

Lol I love the unfiltered shade

To me it’s similar to buying illegal animal products and showcasing it for public awareness

“It’s not to support the poachers but to raise awareness”

Maybe I’m too entrenched in FOSS political vision, but why devote these tremendous efforts to improve products of a company like Apple. I don’t understand the motivation behind Asahi linux, except “just because it can be done” ie academic purpose

Fair enough. For me, scripts are small reusable programs performing a very specific (sometimes trivial or common) task. Eg: making a wav file from PCM data, modifying byte sequences or formatted text in a particular way, etc. I mostly program in C so I have written most scripts in C. Need not necessarily be grokkable as long as its application and scope is clear

I do not get your point?

A script is more about the program rather than the language. You can write a script in assembly or C++ or whatever

He might’ve graduated years ago. My experience (also from India) was Ubuntu/Mint is the most likely OS you will encounter in academia here. In school, we were taught about OSes (just GUI programs from Windows and Linux). And during engineering where basic programming is taught to all, we were encouraged to use Ubuntu and even our computer lab had Ubuntu or Mint installed on all computers.

Depends on how old the HDD is

Not officially supported but it works just as well and might be more well documented than Ubuntu, regarding support and issues

why not both

Its not an entry point into programming at all. From the preface of the first volume,

The following chapters are not meant to serve as an introduction to computer programming; the reader is supposed to have had some previous experience. The prerequisites are actually very simple, but a beginner requires time and practice in order to understand the concept of a digital computer.

Its a long path but one you can take at your own pace. Good luck

I disabled the caps lock key all together

What about the issue where people try to install new version of python sometimes try to uninstall the “old” pre-installed version on a linux system and thus borking the whole s

Definitely not me, anymore

You joke but one time after a fresh install I genuinely forgot to update (the linux header files or something) and some of the device drivers weren’t working

Time is relative in hell

Ok but why my graphics driver act up?

Watch out, using the door requires you to be in wheel group

Not much. There used to be this fear of Microsoft copyrighting Mono for reimplementing their stuff on Linux. For that reason, Mono was avoided by linux app developers. But since MS had acquired the company that made and developed Mono and they have also open-sourced .NET and everything, this does not mean much.

But to its credit its alphabetical
