I've been using VSCodium, but I worry about the indirect dependency on MS and that some tracking/telemetry or AI integration will eventually sneak in.
Code::Blocks looks abandoned, Codelite is nice, but it uses virtual folders, which I hate.
I need syntax highlighting and code completion, and KDevelop seems like it fits the bill.
There's also Geany, but I've had trouble getting it to work as easily as KDevelop.

not him but why would i use neovim instead of vim?
i already use vim since years
>>
>>107660004
I mean your choice, vim is fine aswell, any terminal editor which supports lsps, debuggers etc. is. Honestly I don't know the differences between a fully kitted out neovim vs vim, if there are any but I simply recommend neovim as it has a larger community and is way more beginner friendly. At least that is how it seemed to me. One benefit vim has is that it is more often preinstalled, of course bare vim vs neovim there aren't that many differences so you won't feel lost having only learned neovim

vim is so fast and the mode line is great.

and in vim the substitute syntax is taken straight from sed.
what more do you need?

i briefly tried emacs and it felt like a fucking operating system compared to vim.

Yeah no. You can say kike, nigger, any other casual racism on blue boards like always. But as soon as you say anything negative about Indians/Hindu rape rats, you get banned instantly. I have seen this image posted without anything except "why is this allowed" and the Indian Hindu rape rat jannies always remove it and ban the OP. Go ahead, try making the thread yourself. Even on Reddit, you will see occasional negative news about pissrael, but 100% of ALL negative news about India is censored and removed- just compare the daily news reported by India, to what you see if you search "India" on Reddit:

Kikes only want Indian Hindu rape rats. Even blacks have fallen out of favor as half of them are getting redpilled on the jews and how they financed the slave ships (see Candace Owens). The 2 billion Indian Hindu rape rats are the perfect golem for the jews: fanatically loyal to jews/pissrael, love raping white women and children, intensely jealous hatred of whites and muslims, breed like rats (25 million births per year), and can send 30 million to every single country on earth and still have 1 billion left in India.

You are a try hard that lacks the basic ability to see past your own nose. The arch demographic is the stomping ground for tech illiterate youtubers that don't work in tech to flex their linux know how while doing nothing but playing with Dot files while shilling stupid shit in one of the most dangerous repositories known to man. I can list off the sheer number of frauds that have damaged this board like Trust Fund smith, that fat fuck Broodie as well as a whole gaggle of dumb nerds that do nothing but poke at surface level computing with inflated egos.
You are a retard given a playground but you build a system on shattered glass and can't even do basics like security, there are other security routes you can take in linux besides SElinux but your stupid ass has zero idea what it is and thinks that you are immune to exploits just because you're on linux.

Women don't poop, anon.

>>107658302
a 27 inch monitor at arms length at 4k has like 60ppd, which is optimal for human vision. Going higher has little to no benefit. Even if you had a 32 inch monitor, you would place it further back which would lead to the ppd increasing, meaning higher than 4k is again useless. The only place where higher resolutions make sense is AR/VR as having a fov as high as possible is optimal and even the apple vision pro, with its relatively low fov for a vr headset, has like 45ppd at 4k resolution.

MacOS uses 4x scaling.
So if you want a 2560x1440 deskyop, you need a 5120x2880 resolution screen.

What do you want out of learning to program? Do you want to build things? Do you want to tinker for fun? Do you want to automate processes to make your life or your work a bit easier? Or do you want a paycheck? If you want a paycheck, I advise you to join a different field. Not because I think it's going away, it's not, but because you're going to hate it and get burnt out more than you like the money.

Learning to program and properly learning to learn will change your life though. You will begin to look at everything in the world just a little more differently, you will likely start thinking about things from angles you previously had not considered. You gain a lot more than just technological knowledge. If you take it serious you will gain something you can take with you throughout your entire life.

You should start. What else are you going to do this year?
>>
>>107659394
I would argue even if AI continues to get better at programming it will still be valuable to have people who understand code. I like to use AI slop for prototypes and if I wasn't able to figure out what it's doing or have the vocabulary to communicate what to do next to it then there would be nothing to cut through the noise and progress the project.
>>
>>107659342
Very smart. Demand for programmers will increase, supply will drop to abysmally low and the AI hype train will be to blame. Learn whatever you want, the competition will be shit anyway.
>>
>>107659342
for a programming job? very
to make neat little projects in your free time? go for it
programming is fun when you can just fuck around making things with no risk of being fired if it takes you a week to figure a problem out instead of an hour
>>
>>107659342
Go for it, as long as you're realistic about your prospects of getting hired as an SWE.

>>107659603
I would probably leave SICP for much later. Although theoretically aimed at beginners, it was written in the 80s and it was a different time when it came to learning how computers work/how to program. It's rather abstract and uses a programming language that's rarely used today outside of uni courses. Most programmers haven't read it and have never written any lisp/scheme.
CS50 looks good.
