Go with generics has definitely surpassed Python for me. Python is good for prototyping but the package management story and the "feel" of the language has ruined it for me. I used to love Python, until I used Django professionall

It's not a GNOME project. You've even listed one DE that supports it and has nothing to do with GNOME. It's just that KDE is late to the party and it's now scrambling to polish their Wayland support for the next 5.24 rel

Screen tearing on X11 on NVIDIA has been a known issue since forever, unless you, yikes, add some options in your xorg.conf. And display scaling != font scaling. You don't fix scaling by making your fonts bigger, everything, including

awk is one of those underrated tools I always wanted to learn. I still remember when I started working as a sysadmin at 19, the greybeard UNIX guy taught me how to vim, and he told me awk was as important as knowing vim, pointing to some hu

zstd at compression level 1 can do ~2GB/s per core, and as time goes on and processors get more and more cores, compressing data by default is a valid proposition. In fact, if you install Fedora 35 on btrfs, zstd:1 is enabled by defaul

At gunpoint, I'd rather code 12 hours a day than play LoL or CS:GO 12 hours a day. Because programming is less exhausting and my code doesn't insult my mother on VOIP. And I say that as a gamer and esports enthusiast.

Define proprietary. You pay, they provide full HTML (with Tailwind styles) for all of their controls, that's the point. Worth the money IMO.
