Hide in a cave for an eternity then. If no one knows I exist, then I live forever.

Chilling after a long day of programming. Piano music helps to destress from the work.
When writing BASH scripts:
- The
.shextension isn't necessary. - Using
/usr/bin/env bashis better than/bin/bashas not everyone has their bash located in bin. - Try to use local variables when you can. If you use global variables that won't be used anywhere else, unset them at the end of your script.
- Don't use
set -euo pipefail. It will only cause more issues down the road. - Functions are your friend. If your repeating code, put it in a function.
These are some of the tips I learned while learning bash.
Fractals, or any type of recursion.
The results can be beautiful. My favorite part is knowing some type of formula makes up the image.
I just spell every acronym, so "lmao" becomes "l-m-a-o".
I'm sure removing the root user will prevent all escalation exploits. Can't get root if there is no root!

Nintendo Switch
Mario Odyssey was fine, but I didn't really see the use for a portable slab compared to a pocket-size device like my phone or the 3DS. Also, this was the first Nintendo device that felt completely soulless. At least the Wii U had some charm to it.
I haven't booted bare-metal Windows in years. Since then, I've only ever used it in a VM with no network connectivity, so no updates.
Programming and Linux. Oh boy, what to pick...
Terminal text editors: VIM vs Emacs is the main debate there. (There are others but these are ones people argue the most about)
Linux Distros: Arch, Debian, Mint, CachyOS, ...
Init Systems: Systemd vs OpenRC. Honestly, probably the most toxic debate on this list.
Programming Languages: Python, Shell, but the heated one is C vs Rust
A non-exhaustive list of ones I couldn't think of a category for:
- Tiling vs Floating Window Managers
- Chromium vs Gecko-based browsers
- Bash vs Zsh vs Fish
I love computers and Linux, but man, the amount of toxic in-fighting and gatekeeping is a real turnoff. Just use what you want. At the end of the day, we are all nerds doing what we love.
Hello, World!
Depends. If N = 1, then 1P = P. Otherwise, no.
For quick edits in the terminal? Sure.
As my main IDE? No way. I'm too used to GUI IDEs like VSCodium and PyCharm.
I just find it easier to navigate with a mouse. With just keyboard, I find I overshoot the block of code I'm looking for, whereas scroll wheel gives me more control.
