Oh “Vergissmeinnicht”, beautiful (“vergiss mich nicht”, german for “don’t forget me”)

I like the fact that Blueprint is being adopted. One step closer to stabelization. (:

I recently started a small project using Blueprint and Python. Still early days; nothing to go into detail, yet.

What is TAS?

It is cute, isn’t it?

I am using it, too. I whish the vim-mode was a bit more complete.

I wonder if showtime has yt-dlp support and could potentially replace mpv.

I wish the floating zoom controls would fade out more. Other then that, it is better than Evince.

I rather use the r-base plot functions for everything in R. It is more flexible especially when you need to tweak the visuals.

Great design. Cute implementation.

At which level are you currently? I am level 2.

I wonder whether gnome-tweaks can already be replaced by Refine.

You’re young. I switched jobs and profession twice already. For me, it was the other way around and back again. Came from programming (10 years) then Linux adminstration (2 years) and decided to do Geography. Studied it and the programming skills helped me there, too.

There is always something you can take with you to the next job or profession.

I wasn’t lucky to get a job where I can use my Geography studies so I am now almost 2 years in web programming. I did not have much experience in the field, but I found a place where my Linux adminstration knowledge is useful and I improved web backend programming skills (PHP) on the job.

Soft skills count, too. Reliablity, ability to work in a team. Recruiters look for those things.

And btw. I got my Linux knowledge initially only from personal unpaid studies and projects in my free time.

I bookmarked this one, because I didn’t get this one and hope I will understand it in the future.

I used that combination, too. But I have settled for only the useless gaps extension for now. PaperWM was behind Gnome version too long and now I have seen there is Niri getting better and better. I will switch someday, I guess. It has the same concept as PaperWM, but is a scrollable/linear WM from the ground up.

Documentation is usually a doc folder inside the repo or just a README.md for small projects.

I guess, I have too many (new) songs in my playlist. Would I otherwise get in a programming tunnel easier?

Yes, I know, there is music for programming, but it is all new to me, hence too exciting and I get distracted. I have to test things.

Our dev stack could totally run on Linux, but management wants standardization for security reasons. We have a mixed environment of Win10 and Win11 and our scripts to setup and update the dev environment produce sometimes unpredictable results even on the same version of Windows. <_<

We’re not even using WSL2 to speed things up because we don’t get enough time to adapt our scripts to configure docker to use WSL2.

My next move will be asking to get Fridays off, because they denied my whish to use Linux. If they deny my part-time request, I will look elsewhere in 2025.

That was me 2 years ago. Now, I am wondering how I got the work done until now on Win11. It just takes longer and compensation for overtime helps. And by compensation I don’t mean money; I get my time back, working less on other days.

I will ask for a 4 day workweek. Every day without Windows is a good day. (:

Same here, but in a small company a non-functional windows machine can be a pain although you get paid for overtime.

And, even in Europe companies exist that do unpaid overtime. Worked at one for almost 3 years, all Linux, but I had to prepare for work on weekends. It was not worth it and it did not have anything to do with missing Linux skills. It was just a very demanding job with too much travel time. I hate unpaid overtime.

So, it is easier to blame Win11 that s*** itself again when work could not be done in time.

Do you have a guide that makes this possible?

And what do you mean by using vscode remote ssh session? Does this vscode instance is started from the WSL via some kind of ssh- Y?
