I’ll probably use my raspberry pi instead of installing a VM.
- osrec 7y agoSure - the only benefit of a VM is that you can mess up the VM's filesystem without worrying about it too much.
- disgruntledphd2 7y agoMaking terrible mistakes on real machines teaches you much more though (by sheer necessity if nothing else).
- osrec 7y agoIt might, but I'm not going to suggest that to someone trying to learn the ropes!
- sn9 7y agoYou should check out Harvard's CS50x on edx. It's probably the best introduction to CS and programming online and teaches you the basics of the command line and C along the way. Depending on the CS program, it's roughly equivalent of the first 1-3 semesters at a more average university, but the quality of the pedagogy is so high that it's very doable for anyone willing to put in the work.
