Meanwhile Nim:
echo "I am still worthy"
let a = r"I hate the ugly '\' at the end of " &
"multiline statements"
for x in 0..9:
if x == 6: echo x
echo x # this is error in Nim, but not in python. Insane!
assert false + 1 # this is an error (python devs in shambles)
assert true - 1 # see above
Thanks for coming to my Ted-talk.

Ubuntu: 😮why?
For a lot of people Ubuntu is the linux. Canonical is just good at marketing. For all it worth, Ubuntu is not the bad choice for average user who’s not into ricing and not bothered by bloat.
Manjaro: haven’t you managed to kill it yet?
I’ve been using Arch and Manjaro for couple years each and in my experience they both break regularly. But, for some weird reason, Arch Linux is praised, when Manjaro is shamed upon.
Mint: ex windows guy?
Aren’t we all?
The most stable rolling distro.
I believe for many companies, developers work on giant codebases with many hundred thousands or even millions of lines of code.
With such large codebase you have no control over any system. Because control is split between groups of devs.
If you want to refactor a single subsystem it would take coordination of all groups working on that part and will halt development, probably for months. But first you have to convince all the management people, that refactor is needed, that on itself could take eternity.
So instead you patch it on your end and call it a day.
