I respect that as true, but every console other than XBox is either Linux or BSD based; at a certain point learning to work with alternative platforms is just good business practice.

You can embed scripts in many mainstream distributions of it, and it’s arguable that writing an SQL instruction is in itself writing a concise program for reviewing a database, so it seems logical to me.
Not unheard of. I used to be one.
Yes, she was a stripper. Don’t you judge.
Look, when I said “another Bethesda game”, I was pretty specifically referring to either the Quake reboot, or Prey 2. I don’t know how everybody misunderstood that.
I thought it was obvious, even.
“People like me”? I’m not the aggressor in this conversation, I’m just not taking angry xenophobic propaganda right now.
You know what, you do that. It isn’t my issue, and computers aren’t for everyone.
I can’t tell if he’s being sarcastic, or not, or if he knows whether he’s being sarcastic or not.
The red band is where the real geniuses are. Apparently.
No disrespect, but i must disagree.
My last experience with WSL, about a month ago on Win 11, had it a far cry from GNU/Linux. They don’t even have a shoe-in for udev yet, and as a multimedia guy, that makes it almost unusable.
Allow me to clarify.
C has for, while, and do-while. That’s it.
Ruby has for, while, do-while, until, rescue, inlined conditionals, optionals, and iterators, for what amounts to the same task; not to mention exceptions (something the C standard has repeated swerved away from, wisely) and lambdas.
I’m not saying that there isn’t a time for Ruby, but if you think C falls into the same category then we’re very much in disagreement.
Of recent features, what exactly makes it better for development?
When you’re first writing a line of code, you should already be thinking about how you might refactor it in the future, and preparing for that.
For me the big issue with Ruby—which admittedly has many fine features I would like to see in other languages—is the lack of a general standard for its operations. There are so many ways to get the same basic logic loop done, it feels like a recipe for either unfollowable code or chaos in programming teams.
Props and big up for the G’MIC shoutout. That thing is a BEAST.
Absolutely. I don’t know if it’s the absolute best, but I very much agree for using a high-level language for high-level tasks. There’s a reason they’re designed that way—you’re not burning Hertz, dang it; you’re burning seconds, and you’re burning them either way!
That said, please, please don’t use it for performance critical code.
Not necessarily. They could easily be talking about the monstrosity that is Eclipse.
Well, you probably should.
Do you work for Microsoft?
This whole process just backs up my notion that software patents are generally BS anyway, doesn’t it.
This is officially the stupidest response I have ever gotten on a social platform.
