Choose Nixos and get both!

[-] ShadyGrove@lemmy.world 23 points 4 days ago

Choose ~~Nixos~~ Guix and get both!

[-] lambda@programming.dev 1 points 2 days ago

What is guix? I'm aware of nixos. Are they related?

[-] ShadyGrove@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

They are very similar concepts, but Guix is configured using Scheme (specifically GNU Guile), instead of the crazy nixos language.

[-] lambda@programming.dev 1 points 5 hours ago

Do you have a good comparison? Like maybe two files that do similar things?

[-] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Guix is the superior version if NixOS. It is less bloated and more performant while also more stable.

At least that is what I think it is. Never heard of it before. But I love Guix it is my personality.

[-] meekah@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Lmao 10/10 username

[-] WalnutLum@lemmy.ml 16 points 4 days ago

This guy guix it

[-] QuazarOmega@lemy.lol 12 points 4 days ago

Why yes I am a ~~geek~~guik, how could you tell?

[-] wer2@lemm.ee 4 points 4 days ago

I'm working on it. Just waiting till Christmas.

[-] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 5 points 4 days ago

I might give it another try. Third time's the charm. I'll wait for you guys to have a decent wiki tho.

[-] KSPAtlas@sopuli.xyz 3 points 3 days ago

wiki.nixos.org is pretty good

[-] pimento64@sopuli.xyz 33 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

TempleOS and HolyC are all a computer needs

[-] insomniac_lemon@lemmy.cafe 36 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Yes, but also I don't have much programming experience or even viable beginner project ideas. Also interested in polygonal art but lacking a project doesn't help with that either.

So add in other issues and it really ends up as

Content Description: a cartoon of a man opening a tiny door with 7 cute germ plushies stuck in the open door, they cannot fit through despite pushing

[-] ICastFist@programming.dev 6 points 4 days ago

Here's a project for ya, make porn out of polygonal art

[-] insomniac_lemon@lemmy.cafe 4 points 4 days ago

I mostly do untextured low-poly stuff so I'll think I'll leave that one to the brofessionals. It doesn't seem like a good starting point.

[-] Irelephant@lemm.ee 12 points 3 days ago

While you're here, have you heard of lapis, the lua web dev framework? I like it and that means that you have to too!

[-] iii@mander.xyz 30 points 4 days ago

Languages without a GOTO statement are so passé

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 24 points 4 days ago

On the hardware, it's all GOTOs

[-] Irelephant@lemm.ee 8 points 3 days ago

COMEFROM is much better

[-] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 8 points 4 days ago

I like some of the latest cutting edge stuff like Lisp and Scheme

[-] ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

GOTO is overrated. On Error Resume Next is where it's at.

[-] KickMeElmo@sopuli.xyz 7 points 4 days ago

Oh good, then Lua's in the clear.

[-] blind3rdeye@lemm.ee 2 points 3 days ago

But in Lua, goto is just a table with a bit of syntactic sugar.

[-] KSPAtlas@sopuli.xyz 3 points 3 days ago

Haskell, where you can't even goto because it doesn't really work that way

[-] akkajdh999@programming.dev 2 points 4 days ago

Become a gopher

The duality of linuxmemes and linuxsucks strikes again. 🙃

[-] pewgar_seemsimandroid@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

don't forget the ! it becomes a mail link without it

[-] Ephera@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 days ago

Hmm, it didn't turn into a mail link for me on the Lemmy webpage, so I left it, but yeah, I guess some clients might make it a mail link...

[-] pewgar_seemsimandroid@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 3 days ago

i think i blocked the community anyway

[-] danhab99@programming.dev 18 points 4 days ago

Choose nixos

2 birds 1 stone

[-] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 8 points 4 days ago

Does gdscript count? It mostly just feels like python tho

[-] stickyShift@midwest.social 2 points 3 days ago

GDScript is actually pretty good - it's similar to what TypeScript did for JavaScript, but for Python. However, IMO it's still worth using C# for larger projects

[-] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 5 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

I don't speak no computer only ungabunga.

[-] yetAnotherUser@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 days ago

I don't speak no computer

So you speak computer?

[-] TheFadingOne@feddit.org 3 points 4 days ago

Sure, I'm happy to introduce you to our Lord and Savior BQN

[-] someacnt@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 days ago

Is there any other obscure programming language than haskell though?

Are lisps obscure?

[-] rikudou@lemmings.world 2 points 3 days ago

Nix. The idea behind it is excellent, but the language sucks.

[-] iopq@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

Idris is the obscure version of Haskell

[-] ICastFist@programming.dev 2 points 4 days ago

Gforth and spread the word of Reverse Polish Notation into the Void!
