I once tried to learn C++ but so many things just sucked:
The syntax, headder files, 1000 ways to do the same thing, the ((meta-)meta-) "build" system(s) and overall the feeling of the language:
It is like someone had continuously updated his hobby project without concerning other users.

I want to learn a modern language instead and chose Zig out of Rust or Zig as Rust seemed gay-coded to me.
Is it a good decision to learn Zig? Will Zig stay?

No they removed that. Also, the zig compiler has never successfully built the full version of itself. It can still only be bootstrapped.
>>
for low level languages, you benefit heavily by being (very) familiar with C semantics. This applies doubly so for meme languages because you will eventually want to interface with C libraries due to sheer volume
knowing about some of c++'s warts also helps, because features are often motivated by what went wrong in c++
>>
>>107645788
Zig is just so superior, but you should learn and master C first.
>>
>>107645966
>I have heard that Zig has growing adoption in new languages.
zig is growing (barely) because it exists. there is hardly any new (non-meme) players entering the game. maybe a couple of currently pre-alpha projects will grow into some relevancy...eventually. otherwise, for people looking for something new and almost ready for v1.0, zig is all they got.

It's 2025 but I still need a mail for some basic stuff. I want to say goodbye to my Hotmail account due to Microsoft's bad choices, looking for something more private. Protonmail seems ok, but a bit of a meme (not sure if that matters). Tuta is similar, but in Germany which makes me raise an eyebrow. Mailbox.org is located in Germany too, but you have to pay even for the most basic plan.

Are these the only choices worth considering? Any thoughts on Atomic Mail?

/hsg/ is about learning and expanding your horizons. Know all about NAS? Learn virtualization. Spun up some VMs? Learn about networking by standing up a OPNsense/PFsense box and configuring some VLANs. There's always more to learn and chances to grow. Think you’re god-tier already? Setup OpenStack and report back.

>What software should I run?
Install Gentoo. Or whatever flavor of *nix is best for the job or most comfy for you. Jellyfin/Emby/Plex to replace Netflix, Nextcloud to replace Googlel, Ampache/Navidrome to replace Spotify, the list goes on. Look at the awesome self-hosted list and ask.

>Why should I have a home server?
De-botnet your life. Learn something new. Serving applications to yourself, your family, and your frens feels good. Put your tech skills to good use for yourself and those close to you. Store their data with proper availability redundancy and backups and serve it back to them with a /comfy/ easy to use interface.

why are so many programming "help" groups like this? like, somebody will specifically opt into helping people, and then get frustrated when they dont do exactly what they expect. it constantly feels like im testing everyone's patience whenever i ask for help and its even harder trying to just learn everything myself, especially considering all the weird semantic differences in both the language itself and guides.

like i can imagine a full script in my head but i wouldnt know how to translate it into the language im currently using. and on the offchance that i *do* get the help needed, usually its just "oh just use the blah function", so its not like i just Dont Know How To Code or anything i just dont know the shit thats specific to the engine, and its not like i can just look it up in a glossary or something because the words can be totally different from language to language, like how "object" in one language can be "entity" in another, and object in *that* language refers to an object in an array or something, so theres just a huge language gap that i cant really cross without the help of others, which sucks because working with others sucks

issue might also come from people who are into programming.

most people that are into CS were bullied when younger, and now that they are a bit older and have some "knowledge" they can feel powerful about, they just love turning into dicks all of sudden.

their truth is the only valid truth, and they love to force it to others. it applies to programming, it applies to dumb things such as OS selection, and you see it everyday here.

chances are the geniuses won't be in these "help" groups.

"Help groups" and "communities" are gay and full of grifting faggots that don't actually make anything. That's why they do that. They're just posting the law and the current fashionable framework or meme technique. They care nothing for experimentation and learning by doing and screwing up. You know, like a computer *scientist* would and not just some faggot cult member. Do yourself a favor and delete reddit, do not redeem discord and unplug /g/ unless for memes.

>>107647419
Code optimised (for performance) is not always good code for readability or maintainability or robustness for example.
Now one thing that is true is that different areas have different requirements, and gamedev is often the type of programming that cares much less about traditional maintainability and much more about just pure optimisation and also writing it and getting it to work fast. This was especially true on older platforms and consoles were performance was at an extreme premium (and is somewhat less true today on modern engines). So if you're writing game code for esoteric or retro engines then fair enough, it's gonna be weird and that's fine.

For almost anything else though the requirements are usually different. For a user-facing or desktop application, making the code easy to read, understand and expand with new features is much more important. For a business application, the biggest importance might be correctness, so making the code verbose, explicit in all its preconditions and invariants, and heavily testable. Etc. "Weird" code is usually considered trash code in those environments.

If you're a gamedev it changes the context a lot compared to the above.

Arch Linux is the only version of Linux I can get to install on my laptop. Debian, Ubuntu, Mint, Fedora, RHEL, OpenSUSE all crash by the time they can even start the install process. Granted my laptop has a pretty terribly-supported iGPU but even generic Windows drivers handle it fine so I don't know why it's so hard for Linux. And I don't know if that's even the problem. Has anyone else ever had inexplicable problems with certain distros? I thought all Linux used the same kernel?
