  • Excellent post. I agree wholeheartedly, especially with having a separate box to play with. I've gotten away with using a separate partition for experimenting but it isn't as good as another machine, plus great computers are dirt cheap these days so there's little reason not to have one.

  • Obligatory mention of file recovery as an option if you get in this situation.I recommend testdisk but there are other more gui friendly options.

    NTFS takes a relatively long time to destroy the data so chances of recovery are good on Windows.

  • It's because people put in the hard work of writing amazing macros instead of baking code reuse into the type system itself 😁 I'm a rust noob and I love the derive macro.

  • Imho desktop Linux is usually set up where a single bad app can lock up the whole system. This is not every Linux system, but I run across it more than I would like. I believe part of this is an optimistic approach to memory management which makes the system run better overall most of the time.

    Windows seems slow as hell most of the time, but killing a process seems to work reliably (not clicking on the hung app takeover UI, using task kill or task manager)

    I don't understand these memes about killing processes in Linux vs Windows.
