Definitely will, I appreciate the support :) I'll hop onto the Rust form after I've read the book with some questions.
That looks like a helpful guide to go through as well. I'm not too familiar with compiling/building/making (only the general notions)... In the past, I've abandoned programming projects because I got bogged down in the semantics of the documentation.
Should I stick to drawing high-level flowcharts pursuing a "make this" Occam's Razor type philosophy and just condition myself to abandon unnecessary pedantic details? Just trying to make sure I follow through with my programming project this time instead of getting overwhelmed!
I've had murmurs of Rust throughout my time here... I'll give it a try and attempt to make a barebones application with buttons.
Once I've either failed catastrophically or have created something to be reviewed, I'll report back.
Thanks!
I'll check those out and see if I can get a good workflow going for it.
I wanted my first web project to be a static site since I really only need a blog at this point in time. The use case for my blog really would be to write about chemistry and chemical engineering stuff I think is cool. Having a worksheet repository for my students as well that they could access with some encryption so the access is restricted. I'd love to try the fancy stuff on websites, I just need to get the poison of "JavaScript is spyware" out of my head.
It's pretty disorienting to figure out the "right" way of learning web development after the loads of slander I've seen in memes. Im sure youve seen the same about React, JavaScript, and something about "NodeJS". I wasn't really too aware of software other than doing calculations on data collected from DAQs. Any resources you'd recommend to check out?
I guess I should ask the question, what exactly is all the fuss about surrounding some of the frameworks? I definitely can see the argument about adding more layers of abstraction can obfuscate the underlying mechanisms of the codes thus increasing the amount of potential vulnerabilities. Particular companies and developers turning evil is also. But some of the rhetoric becomes "They'll put a miner for your crypto" "They'll siphon every facet of information about you". The most bizarre I read was how to figure out the outline of 3D objects surrounding the user via the pattern in white noise detected by an interference pattern.
Histrionics aside, is there a good resource that I can read that dismisses common falsehoods that is generally reflective of what constitutes a " good" framework? Thanks for the help!
Any advice on adjusting to a search engine like Searx or enhancing how to use DuckDuckGo since Fennec comes with it?
Is there a gospel-like resource on Search Engines and using particular query delimiters? Just been tough reading some of these documentation pages with legion jargon words
Oh man... I grew up poor and couldn't imagine my car's daily functions spontaneously malfunctioning due to a stupid code you can't control (reliably) as an end user. Having never had money to throw at solutions , I can't imagine how horrible equity will be as time progresses with knowledge and understanding of these things.
I'll check out Mazdas! I'm in the market for a new car, but really anything that just is a "dumb" car. I don't want the infotainment crap and paywalled everything, just let me repair my vehicle so I can afford to live :D
Apologies for the long wait for a response. Been trying to get back to people.
I checked out the Chromebook I have and made a post on the Gentoo form, but don't believe I'm able to do it for my particular model because of how I'm sandboxed in a subsystem of something. Could I DM you and we could chat more about sending Chrome OS to the shadow realm?
I recall hearing something about strain on one side of the battery increasing if you only recharge it wirelessly, but I'm not sure how correct that is. I've been hesitant to use a wireless charger for awhile because of that.
Have you found that phones in the past were getting clogged, scratched or mangled somehow from the cable insertion? I had a Samsung A50 lose its entire screen as it gradually turned purple over the course of 2 weeks. One morning the whole screen turned purple and then pixel death propagated like concentric circles in a lake while skipping rocks.
It was terrible. I lost my ability to log into my phone the usual way and ahve yet to recover the data on it. Got a Samsung S10 for a quick replacement which the screen broke on one drop... The Pixel has been great so far though. Hope you got a replacement. What are you using now?
Thanks for the explanation! I always wondered why would describe hooks so trivially. I'm still bleaching my brain of the Windows habits I developed from lifs-long usage.
I looked a little more into hooks, and am curious if a patch can kind of be like a hook? Where you create a config file that has symlinks to all the executables like you mentioned? Still a noob when it comes to software creation :D
I really like the comparison to drawing and the gap between what I'm seeing in my head and my actual ability to carry out the task! Something hypnotized me when I first got introduced to the world of free software. Initially I started out learning LaTeX to make math worksheets for my tutees because Microsoft Word made me want to violently smash my keyboard. Further rabbit-holing and forum-crawling convinced me that I needed to download Arch or else it simply "wasn't worth it", which is completely wrong in itself.
Never have heard of a LAMP stack, but I'll check it out. I'll try to persevere through frustration and just look at errors as a way of learning from my mistakes. Eventually I hope to have a grander control and understanding of my devices, but this will just come with time. Thanks for the encouragement!
Great source! Thank you very much for sharing, I’ll check it out more 😊
