I’m in the same boat. I was a kde neon person for a very long time, but I eventually got tired of some weird issues I was having that I couldn’t find a fix for. tried fedora on a bit of a whim and everything just worked. Nvidia drivers were a breeze to set up, gnome is very nice out of the box and doesn’t take the configuring I’m used to on kde, and even just having gnome boxes pre installed is super useful and I get to skip the virtualboxes setup. very impressed with it overall. never going back

an entire section on race conditions I see

don’t get discouraged. sorting algorithms occur frequently in interviews, and yes you use them a decent amount (especially in languages without built in sorts like c) but they are one of the harder things to visualize in terms of how they work. I’d say avoid anything recursive for now until you can get selection and insertion down pat. check out geeksforgeeks articles on them, but also don’t be afraid to Google willy nilly, you’ll find the resource that makes it click eventually.

in terms of efficiency, it does become a little more difficult to grasp without some math background. big o is known as asymptomatic notation, and describes how a function grows. for example, if you graph f1(x)=15log(x) and f2(x)=x, you’ll notice that if x is bigger than 19, then f2(x) always has a higher output value than f1(x). in computer science terms, we’d say f1 is O(log(n)), meaning it has logarithmic growth, and f2 is O(n), or linear growth. the formal definition of big o is that f(x) is O(g(x)), if and only if (sometimes abbreviated as iff) there exists constants N and C such that |f(x)| <= C|g(x)| for all x>N. in our example, we can say that C = 1, and N>19, so that fulfills definition as |15log(x)| <= 1|x| whenever x>19. therefore, f1(x) is O(f2(x)). apologies for just throwing numbers at you, (or if you’ve heard all this before) but having even just the most basic grasp of the math is gonna help a lot. again, in terms of best resources, geeksforgeeks is always great and googling can help you find thousands of more resources. trust that you are not the first person to have trouble with these and most people before you have asked online about it as well.

I also highly reccomend grabbing a copy of discrete mathematics and it’s applications by Kenneth Rosen to dig farther into the math. there’s a few other types of asymptomatic notation such os big omega and big theta, even little o, that I didn’t mention here but are useful for comparing functions in slightly different ways. it’s a big book but it starts at the bottom and is generally pretty well written and well laid out.

feel free to dm me if you have questions, I’m always down to talk math and comp sci.

edit: in our example, we could also pick c =19 and n = 1, or probably a few other combinations as well. as long as it fills the definition it’s correct.

white women really need to get their shit together. downright embarrassing

at the very least it can become a states rights issue and go to the supreme court, but with that in shambles I unfortunately agree

mine in PA. most of them are sent to a name I don’t know anyone by…

idk how weird this is in terms of everything else in this thread, but peanut butter and pickles on toast is great

only time I ever bought gift cards was when I worked at restaurant. each Christmas theyd give us employees 20% off gift cards. id buy a bunch of them (usually like 500$ worth). then when a customer paid in cash, I’d pay with my gift card, and pocket the change. I always told the customer what I was doing and made sure it was ok with them, it was a chain so most people were just kinda thrilled they could help me beat the system.

no that’s not true at all. you’re supposed to talk about it, to share your stories, to go to therapy, support groups. to make online spaces to discuss and heal and grow. same as women. unfortunately, the only time I ever see men share their stories is when it takes away from a women’s experience, which is disgusting as has been happening more and more on this app.

terminally online men try not to take a picture of a random sign in an otherwise unrelated article personally challenge (impossible)

thanks for being one of the reasonable ones in this comment section lol. and it seems you’re doing a pretty good job of trying to enact change. keep it up, it’s a team effort :)

sorry to hear about your story as well, hope everything is going well for you now.

jesus man, not everything is about you. sure, not all men are sexual predators. easy enough to agree on. but the point is that all men have had opportunities to call their peers out on creepy behavior, whether it’s catcalling, looking down on women, sexualizing them, etc. and failed. each of these 50 plus men in this story could’ve reported this as odd, or talked to the women and made sure she was ok, or hung around until the drugs wore off to double check, and didn’t. each of them were given an opportunity and they took full advantage of it and of her. so yeah. all men have failed women at some point, and each of your MANY comments in this thread are honestly just another example of that, taking away from this poor women’s story to wage your personal crusade.

imagine taking this story, about where a woman was systematically drugged and raped for OVER 10 YEARS, and going “ah yes but what about the men?!?”. I truly feel for the men in the comments sharing their stories, and I hope they continue to share and raise awareness, but Jesus y’all not the time

the hero we need

interesting. I actually haven’t had any throughput issues yet but if I do I will definitely keep that in mind

yep!

I run jellyfin on bare metal because it makes it easier to debug imo, but I do use docker for caddy and some other little applications (like a tomcat instance for example)

my servers run alpine! it’s incredibly stable even for hobbiest use

why is the password ******* lol
