I just need to trust my fingers, you need to trust an algorithm choosing something for you. For me, checking whether auto-complete choose the correct is more work that typing the correct thing, as my fingers type on their own - almost witho

I think it depends on whether you type, or your fingers type (without brain involvement). I didn't say, that I don't make mistakes. It is rare that I make it a quarter of an hour before fucking up... luckily I am good at fixing it

For me, it works with 5+ languages I write (production) code in at least every month... I don't know how it is for others. Also, I really try to minimize complexity and not ending up in the javascript npm dependency spaghetti.. Good co

I don't consciously type... I think, my fingers type... I spend 0% brain cycles on typing (it is pure muscle memory), which why picking from a list (or checking that autocomplete choose the correct) is more brain work...

I made a decision 20 years ago to avoid auto complete and other "in programming flow breakers". Instead, I have multiple phases, writing, linting and such. I am sure that it made me a better programmer as I know a lot of stuff by

First of all, the distro you use doesn't really matter that much in the end. Two distros you definitely should not use from the beginning are Arch and Gentoo. Both are great distros, but way to complex for a beginner. As a beginner be
