Yeah, if that’s the only reason, changing your shell is overkill.

Such as?

I don’t use Wine.

Love seeing you guys bitch on every software launch for a Linux release lmao.

Yeah, no. I don’t want any Windows software. Everything I use is free/open source.

Inkscape and Krita are not capable of professional work.

How so?

Are you a programmer?

I started gaming after I switched to Linux, so all of my gaming is Linux-based. It helps that I use emulators for everything, and Linux has excellent emulators. When I built my new computer and discovered I could emulate a Switch at a playable speed, it floored me.

I still have a soft spot for Kubuntu, but I had to move to Arch because I wanted my software up-to-date. It really fucking sucks when a new version of something comes out and you have to wait for somebody to get around to updating the repo. Sometimes it would take months.

I don’t have any problem using those. A lot of times, your can just say “search”, and people will know it’s a web search because it’s implied.

Yeah, and then I still use ddg to search Google (with !g).

~95% of the JS code you see on the Web has semicolons. Apparently, a lot of programmers think it’s worth that extra keystroke to avoid these types of bugs. I agree with them. The difficulty with programming isn’t “Arrgh, there are too many keystrokes, my hands are tired!” It’s “Arrgh, HTF did this bug get in here?!?”

Programmers who care about best practices. Here are a couple of scenarios where not using a semicolon will bite you in the ass.

Microsoft is an abomination (true).

Reflexive MS hatred is just as dumb as any other kind of reflexive hatred. TypeScript is free and open source, so what’s the danger?

Typescript is an abomination.

Why? (I’ve only used vanilla JS and jQuery.)

That’s only the tip of the iceberg.

Which is a fine decision if you have a programming language to do silly stuff on a personal geocities page

And that is, of course, what it was designed for.

JS is brilliant considering that it was created by one dude in 10 days. Nobody thought it would become nearly as important as it has become.

Not if it saves time and effort. The less time I have to spend writing and debugging code, the better.

That’s what machines are for, after all. To make work easier.

Bias is a problem, but it can be ameliorated. I don’t agree that because AI can be biased, you should never use it.

Creating ai would just be making some sort of copy of us

I don’t know any humans who can munge a ginormous data set like an AI can.

However, reproducing human intelligence in a computer would be interesting in its own right.

Well, yeah. If you can get a machine to do the job for you, then you should.
