I've been doing Linux for quite a while. I've really gotten into it the last 5 years. I do all our server builds and maintenance as one of my hats. I do really enjoy working with Linux. I haven't done C,C++ in decades. I did Obj-C when the iPhone first came out and really enjoyed it, particularly with the old school memory management. I like being close to the metal.
I've been doing C# for the last 15 years or so and enjoyed it for the first 10 years, but don't like the new iteration of the syntax. It seems like going backwards to me. Let's see how much shit we can put on a single line. That used to be a meme.
An old high school buddy of mine is really into ML and I'm trying to absorb his passion, but it's not quite taking. I hope I can get back into it at a personal level. I do miss enjoying it.
I've been on Macs since 2008 or so because it's close to *nix. I got spoiled by the hardware. Anyone recommend a laptop that is 16:10 and close to the Apple hardware that runs Linux? My laptop of choice was Thinkpad back in the day, but they all went to 16:9 which is annoying AF to me. 16:10 seems to be making a comeback though.
