You mean like that’s difficult?

Well that’s one wide open backdoor. More like a back gate, really.

Well yes, the trick is to attach the debugger for the second run.

It’s libadwaita?

This is a job for a tiling WM. Imagine doing this on Window$.

I’d argue that the whole internet has a bot problem.

“Senior backend engineer” tells us it’s likely backend software development, which is mostly platform agnostic. NodeJS, PHP, Python or whatever language you want to write your backend in can be developed on any OS. Even C#, unless you insist on specific versions.
The limitation to Windows as a developer OS was likely not communicated in the job advert or during the interview process and was only revealed when the developer machine was requested.
Going purely on phrasing, Devin seems to be head of IT. So this may be his call to make, but this will alienate some candidates, as we can see.
Software development on Windows is a uniquely frustrating experience. Nowadays it can mostly be sidestepped with WSL, but that still leaves you “using” an OS that you will have to fight frequently.

I really don’t see which part of “senior backend engineer” suggests a Windows shop to you. Devin is the internal IT support person of the company.

What makes you assume it’s a Windows shop?

That’s the recipient using gmail, I think. It shows the inbox tag.

Easy. Download “proprietary” installer (usually just a bash script with a compressed archive appended) and relate it with a quick PKGBUILD. Ta dah, native package for everyone to enjoy.

I get that, but when looking for specific information I don’t have the patience to wait for some slowpoke babbling and going off on tangents. I want information, not fluff.

Why would you even search YouTube for that sort of thing? Videos are a terrible format for communicating informationally dense topics.

Zed always felt fishy to me.

I suggest RFC 2549: IP over Avian Carriers with Quality of Service .

For a better source maybe try Rust?

It is a good distro. It’s just that the documentation is either outdated, inaccurate or inexistent and that the learning curve is parallel to the y-axis.
The community, somewhat understandably, has limited time and willingness to explain the same things over and over, yet for some reason refuses to conclude that rigorously maintaining a wiki is their best bet to combat this situation and will ultimately be less effort than repeating the same explanations.

AI assisted coding is the norm.

That doesn’t mean it’s good.
