I’m still in a mechanical engineering world so just saying INT and FLOAT has people running away. Excel is the “safe zone” for them, sadly it means that I’ll just be doing the VBA part and oh gawd please get me out of here…

Can confirm. Was quite unhappy in my mechanical engineering job, had an opportunity to develop something nice in python, was told we’d do it in excel/vba instead, still unhappy.

I remember those questions! As soon as I read high school my mind went from “working for Canonical would be nice” to “let’s justify not writing an essay by reading everything bad about Canonical”.
Lucky for me it was easy as r/recruitinghell was full of post about people doing the whole process and being rejected. Also the CEO had a reddit account and the way he was justifying this process didn’t jive with me, at all.
VM is still windows tho, just one layer deeper.
Freecad is OK but it wouldn’t even be considered in a commercial setting like I’m working in. I work with Catia, Solidworks and Polyworks. None on those run on Linux.
Sadly Windows is still required for a lot of cad softwares.
Just tried both and I don’t know which one made me feel better
One felt like being run over by a train, the other felt I was a legless puppy in front of a kindergarten.
“OK then do me a favor, shut it down, unplug the power for 5 second and plug it back in”
I’m currently trying Fedora Kinoite and from the get go the hassle of getting a proper Firefox+codecs to watch online videos feels like a major step back.
Then you have the issue of installing software in flatpack (is: vscode, texmaker) that are either not fully working of need to have their access tweaked. Atomic distros appeal is to “just work” it doesn’t seem like it does.
+1… Started using Zola and built on top of it to learn scss, javascript, and HTML. All that extra building was not required for a running site but was still a great learning experience.
Some bloggers have experimented and used Mastodon as a medium to comments on their blog posts. Works quite well.

I disagree but you do you.
Edit: dammit you edit your comment a lot for someone who claims to know how to write code properly.
Because everyone knows a function stops at the if-else. Nothing ever happens afterward.
I say ess cue ell for the sake of uniformity because it’s not Mysequel nor Postgresequel and the language changed from Sequel to the acronym SQL in the 70s so not really in the “too new” ballpark anymore.
There’s nothing limiting what a comment should be as far as I know.
As an example of what I mean, I’ve seen in a 10k+ lines python code a few lines of bit manipulation. There was a comment explaining what those lines did and why. They didn’t expect everyone to be proficient in bit manipulation but it made it so that anyone could understand anyway.
I don’t care how much you think your code is readable, plain text comments are readable by everyone no matter the proficiency in the programming language used. That alone can make a huge difference when you’re just trying to understand how someone handled a situation.
The main issue is programming in a specific language limit who can contribute to those who speaks that language. In that sense English makes sense as it is already a widely used language in a work context. It would probably limit those who are willing to use the software as it makes auditing harder.
New employees are responsible of at least 75℅ of documentation clarification and process overhaul.
First thing I’d do is to look at the client (fedora) journal for anything funky happening.
‘sudo systemctl status nfs-client’
Since it’s random I assume you won’t have any timeout in your /etc/fstab but it might be worth taking a look anyway.
Be aware that if the network drops the NFS will be disconnected and won’t auto-reconnect so this could also be the issue.
I don’t know if it plays well with container mounted volume, but looking at autofs could be a solution to auto-remount the share. I use it profusely for network mounted home directories.
