There are teams where I work that are basically using Excel as a database and SharePoint as S3 in automated processes… But at least no one is going to DIE when those things fall over!

Personally, I have also had great experiences with the HP line of business laptops - Probooks and Elitebook.
Allow me to reveal my age by saying… No, duh!!!
The only possible way Microsoft can be this bad at naming things is if they are actively doing it on purpose.
2K of RAM? Time to port over some Atari 2600 games!
Came here to upvote for the exact same reasons.
I always run GE at this point.
This is what I came into the comments section for…
Yeah, I was going to cheat and go with “the entire Star Trek franchise”
And… I pretty much already speak entirely in Star Trek quotes.
Yeah, ujust is pretty cool!
At work, we’re a Windows shop. So mostly Docker (desktop) via WSL2. But it depends on the project. Sometimes it’s just NodeJS in Windows itself!
At home, mostly tools like nvm and Python venvs to handle multiple projects with potentially overlapping/problematic dependencies that I want to isolate from the base system.
Either way, initial testing happens locally with Docker compose, sometimes minikube depending on the project.
With Bluefin-DX it’s a lot of the same concepts but the included tools get you there a different, and honestly easier and more convenient way. But I have learn how to use those tools!
Bluefin-DX is great! I’m still figuring out how everything works - there are a lot of tools included that are new to me, despite being a cloud-oriented developer.
It’s a very different way to use Linux, from how the OS is constructed, to the container-first nature of the default applications and intended workflow. But I’m really enjoying learning how to use it.
I’m a programmer! I use Linux and Windows. In fact, I’m now in my second job in a Microsoft shop (and no, neither were/are .NET…). And I’ve had exactly zero jobs where I was issued or allowed to use a Linux machine.
Almost 10 years into my own Linux journey, I’m feeling the pull to Debian.
I’m just hanging out in denial right now on Pop OS.
Thanks, I’ll look into that. KDE is awesome and it would be fun to contribute in some small way.
I’m a developer, but my career has been very web-focused. What languages would I need to learn to contribute to KDE apps?
The Bioneer on YouTube has some pretty good body weight/minimal equipment routines that I have found to be helpful.
I’m a millennial. I’ll be 42 in two months. I am lucky enough to own a home too.
Yes, please!
Whether you use Windows or Linux, the Windows key is the foundation of many useful keyboard shortcuts. You know, hold it down plus some other key.
Whatever your preferred OS, look them up! You may find a few you would like to start using.
But yeah, on my work computer which is a Windows machine, I often use it to open the start menu and start typing the name of the app I want to launch. It’s faster than clicking on an icon somewhere if your hands are already on the keyboard.
