Thanks both @KooShnoo@programming.dev and @soulsource@discuss.tchncs.de for your input! I’ve ordered The Book so looking forward to getting started with that.

Amazing thank you, just ordered the rust programming language book.

I’m a self taught JavaScript developer. I’ve got many years of experience but I’ve never worked in a language I use to manage memory in any form. I’ve been having a lot of fun learning rust and learning about what’s physically happening when a program is executed.

I’ve been watching Core Dumped (https://youtube.com/@CoreDumpped) and Low Level Learning (https://youtube.com/@LowLevelLearning) and it’s been so helpful. I have also been watching Let’s Get Rusty which is good for learning rust specifically, but I’m looking for more memory focused or detailed videos or channels talking about why things are happening. Do you know if any other channels, videos or resources that could help me learn more about this?

It takes a while to create your minimal and perfect experience, so if you don’t have the time for that I’d suggest using a ready to go neovim setup. Others have suggests kickstart and lunavim. I’d suggest LazyVim since it uses lazy.nvim which is an async package manager. https://www.lazyvim.org/

I pretty much use it as a replacement for LGBTQIA+, but keep in mind that not everyone may consider themselves queer; it /is/ a reclaimed word after all, so people may have trauma related to it.

I don’t know if this is helpful, but I searched for “trans friendly doctors” and found some good doctors in my area.

Yeah labels also help me, esp since it makes it easier to find people who feel a similar way.

[-] darkregn@beehaw.org 5 points 1 year ago

Non-binary exists, just mentioning that “boy” and “girl” aren’t the only labels.

I share my dotfiles repo between my MacBook and Linux pc so anything that goes in there is run on both operating systems.

Yes there is definitely a lot that can be learned from those different distributions. The community around them is a big plus. While I don’t use anything magical myself, I’m happy they exist for various reasons.

[-] darkregn@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yeah I like the set of plugins it comes with. It’s definitely a well curated distributions.

For me LazyVim is just magic I don’t want to learn, along with preferring to have explicit control of the whole setup. Also migrating to something else takes more effort going from one magic to another magic. I’ve just finished migrating from packer to lazy.nvim and I like that I still have all the git history in my plugin/* files.

I’m very happy with my new “vanilla” lazy.nvim setup now.

I’m looking at implementing lazy.nvim, the package manager, but not LazyVim. Personally I like to be in control of everything and LazyVim takes too much away from me.
