Any version of Windows since 1995 has been more polished, production-ready and user-friendly than any Linux distro ever made. That's obvious to anybody who has installed both of them on the same machine.Are Linux users just lying about their distros being a better experience than a Windows installation?

There's a lot of web browsers out there. But which one is the best one to use? I'm sure nobody has discussed this before.Points for speediness.
google chrome
Edge.
>>107640162All browsers suck equally.
>>107640162GNOME Web
>>107640162They are all Chrome, Firefox, or Safari under the hood. That's why Ladybird sounds exciting, it has an actual new engine.
/dpt/ - Daily Programming ThreadWelcome to the Daily Programming Thread. What are you working on, /g/?Previous thread: >>107575071
>>107639948>Programming language deals with *combining* computing operations.also, combining stuff is what languages in the formal sense (in the purely syntactic sense) (regular languages, context free grammars) are all about combining stuffsyntax is different than semantics but in programming languages semantics are coupled with the syntaxin PLs you can syntactically nest expressions as much as you want and when you do the compiler will combine as many primitive operations as needed in order to evaluate that expressionIn other words, programming is all about combining primitive operations that will get executed by real hardware in the end, directly if the language is natively compiled or indirectly if it is bytecode interpreted, and formal languages are all about combining strings so they are the perfect to tool to express the combination of primive computing operations that overall makes a program.

>>107640009>you should have a permissive parse actually, the semantic passes have more hope of emitting descriptive error messages than just syntax errorsI completely agree. There are 2 kind of minimal syntaxes: the highly composable and permissive one, and the unnecessarily restricted one. I assumed it was the 2nd one for some reason.Sometimes the badly complex grammars incorporate semantic rules directly in the grammar rules. For example in C, where you can't put function or type definitions in function bodies. That's bad. The grammar become complex and bloated for no reason because all this stuff is not hard to deal with during name resolution.It can also be useful to have a very permissive syntax for macros or for the type system.For example, you might want to pass a conditional statement/expresson or a while loop as argument to a macro call, in order to construct a function definition. For that you need to parse while loops as expressions. This mean you can write non sensical things in the language such as 2 + while (1) { ... } that will parse correctly but this is trivial to reject a program like that by the type checker if you assign the type void (or similar) to while loopsConcerning types, it's useful to be able to put arbitrary expressions in grammar rules relating to types so that you can maybe have dependent or refined types later. Or for compile time stuff, debugging stuff, reflection stuff, etc..
Want to use modern C++ features like Modules? Nuh uh can't include "non-importable headers" from common librariesWhat's "non-importable"? IT'S IMPLEMENTATION DEPENDENT. No one knows.C++ keeps stapling shiny new abstractions onto a language whose foundation is still “whatever your compiler feels like today.” Every new feature “works unless it doesn’t.”It’s not a language design so much as cardboard layer cake. Why don't you use something else? MPI. The alternative would be Fortran.
only problem with c++ i had was being unable to install third party libraries and frameworks
c++ is c + classes(raii) + templates + lambdas + overloads + namespaces. most of the compile time magic is for the standard library. the largest issue with c is the lack of generics and namespaces, and c++ provides this. the only thing i dislike about c++ is that types are implementation specific, which is also an issue with c. i have never found the header convention to be bad, so i dont get why retards want modules. a header is just a list of forward declarations, its not that complicated. also c++ 17 is all you need, and that is why g++/clang only fully support to up c++ 17.
>>107640031>there is little distinction between the two in practiceeven with completely different styles you have same or familiar idioms and syntax and such. I never worked in such codebase so I wouldnt know though.>there is little distinction between the two in practicea c-style c++ codebase is practically unusable in a rust-style c++ codebaseis this even c++ specific or a multiparadigm language "issue"? you get this with any language that is not totally pure I assume.
>>107640103do modules decrease compile times by avoiding compiling the same code in different TUs over and over? I remember if you included a header with method implementation that's what happens.though, methods inside headers are not idiomatic I guess, are they?

I had a question if anyone works in healthcare IT. I currently work as a receptionist and have done medical billing in the past. I'm looking to get an associate's in health informatics and get RHIT certified, so I can move onto jobs like becoming a revenue cycle analyst/specialist, or working as a health information technician. I am planning to pursue a bachelor's in the future, but I want to get my foot in the door first before pursuing it. is it worth it to get the associate's so I can get certified as an RHIT?

>>107637469
>>107638100I just want a stable system with AB updates because I don't trust any distro maintainer on Earth not to fuck my shit up at some point, regardless of the distro. This is the best solution I've found to the problem. Fedora, one version behind, AB updates, containers trivial to create and use OOTB, SELinux configured (to a degree) OOTB and layering so I can use the Fedora repos when I need to (mostly for installing a browser). Just about everything else I do from a flatpak, which I just backup by a list so I can restore them from an xargs command whenever I backup my system.That's why I use that system. It meets my specific needs and I've been using it long enough to understand its pros and cons.>>107637350>its literally perfect for a usecase like thatI could use Nix to do what I do now, but for running a desktop it just seems pointless to me. I don't need identical desktops across multiple systems or anything like that. It can be perfect for something like this, but it's a different philosophy and overkill for what I need. Nix is individualistic, creating and deploying your own system deterministically. The atomic Fedora spins are to keep lots and lots of unrelated computers using the same configurations to a degree most people on /g/ find annoying. But it means that the guy who's testing your bug report probably has almost the exact same system as the one you're running. And that you have almost the exact same system as the guys maintaining the distro.Two tools that do a lot of the same jobs differently, but have strengths in different areas.
>>107637404It's 13 months of support with a release every 6 months. The mainline universalblue/bazzite/bluefin stay a version behind Fedora so they get 7 months support (from the Fedora repos). I think there are also some universal blue spins based on the CentOS stream or maybe Alma/Rocky Linux that would be the equivalent to a LTS, but I don't know if they're still doing that or they were just testing the idea out.
