Not in Canada. Over the counter hearing aids are only a legal thing in the U.S.

I mean… yes those are true? lol.

It’s great for getting a feel for how things are done, imo.

But yes a crutch you should gradually stop relying on.

Surely an unpopular opinion lol.

Python is a great first language.

Bring on the chunked 🤘

There’s not much to it. You just use the determinate installer. Works great.

For simple use cases… Linux can actually be a lot more hands off and just works.

It’s actually pretty great for the grandparent use case.

I’ve been with Fedora for awhile now because I like the project and how it pushes things forward. Changed to Silverblue and never returned.

Now I’m using Bluefin because I like the little tweaks on top of Silverblue. Would recommend.

Have you checked out Aurora?

Bluefin, very happy. Nice toys on top of an atomic Silverblue base. Love the concept.

:q!

People need programmers to make boring things. Often boring things make more money than programming stuff for science.

We need both. Programming is a tool.

Just the parts with leaders that hate freedom.

You can still use either.

Python has never been a big language for app development… no idea why you would call it old school.

To answer op, Swift for iOS; Kotlin on Android.

I tried it and it didn’t work well for me (can’t remember why, it was awhile ago).

Looks great. I’ll probably wait for a flatpak and try it out.

I’ve already automated Restic with bash scripts and systemd timers but… used to use Vorta with Borg and did like having a GUI.

In the long run, I wonder if rust will spawn a family of new memory-safe languages.

I do with Mobius and it’s usable. I have a Synology NAS always there at home to sync to though. (Mobius syncs 1-2 hours per day in the background but it’s dynamic and not predictable thanks to Apple).

If I didn’t syncing between iOS devices would probably not work very well.

Yes instant syncing with iOS requires you to open the app if you can’t wait. I’ll often open Mobius if I’m working back and forth to make sure it syncs instantly.
