That said, LLM coding changed my life! I am 10x more productive at work thanks to AI coding tools - you should totally listen to the IT teams' arguments and make your own informed judgement.
Had an old laptop with win xp and tried out Ubuntu instead of moving to vista which was terrible.
I still dual booted Windows 7 for many years on my main PC but at some point that was too bloated and I moved permanently to Ubuntu and later Arch.
As a programmer I got to experience the evolution of almost all tools support going from back then "Windows install instructions, Mac install and Linux - you're on your own" to now: "Linux, maybe Mac.. and Windows, just use our Linux VM"!
My wife is in the same boat. But it's more like 2 weeks, 2-3 days to migrate and the rest to get used to the different OS. After that you're good forever though (at least until you see new shiny distro come out)
Lots of anti-ai people in this thread it seems. I get it - personally I HATE the fake image generation! But I have to agree with you in terms of coding that using LLM's correctly can offer huge benefits.
Modern harnesses are getting more and more sophisticated and your milage varies depending on how well you use them (like any complex tool). At the end of the day it's still up to the developer to take the code and make sure it's correct - no different from before where we used to copy code from Stack Overflow or other examples and modify them for our own use.
One thing I have to add - I honestly don't understand why anyone would use Claude or chatgpt at their ridiculous prices when DeepSeek exists..
I would suggest a different approach. Think about what you want to achieve with programming. Look at the languages which can be used to do this task. Choose one and try some tutorials, I recommend freecodecamp it helped me a lot.
I can't really comment on zig and go but I think they are pretty serious languages tbh.
I switched to Catchy from Manjaro a few months ago, no regrets. Been using Linux for +10 years and it's the best distro so far.
I'm not a gamer but installed steam and lutris since it's so easy to do and it was seamless, works out the box.
But for me as a developer the real gain was their AMD support. I can confirm that my laptop is genuinely faster now. If you have have AMD processor, just look up CatchyOs enhancements.
Prickly pear fruit. Looks like an exotic dangerous adventure but after you avoid the spikes and get inside it's actually pretty bad. Recommend eating only if choices are eat this or die of thirst/hunger (eg. if you are lost in the Namib desert.)
Outside of coding I don't find it that useful..
Chicken sold in supermarkets in America
I fixed the headline for you

Not a bot I promise..

They didn't mention battery life once, and it doesn't even have a torch?
I heard about the web usb thing, it's also going to be a game changer for me (I haven't tried yet, hopefully it works)
Yeah opera used to be the one. I'm STILL pissed that they deleted all of my notes
You can try it is not that difficult
You won't like it though

Arduino programming is basically C++ with helpers so yeah you learn a lot!!

100% agree about JS but it's hard to avoid.

Python scripts, on the other hand...
I found out this doesn't apply to celeron laptop from 2016 with 4 GB ram so all good.
Local AI js API checks pc specs before downloading - cos it wouldn't work anyway 😁
You can ask the Duck Duck Go AI Assistant instead 🤣
It's like the fruit version of preparing a pufferfish!
Yes I'm answering the 2nd question if you look
