@dhh @iamdothash Can’t wait for stable release! Looks so sick!

@mitchellh What a cool idea!

@tawnniee My first MacBook had a touchbar. It was actually pretty cool. Imagine if we could have put Linux on it and used it for waybar?

@Aditya_181105 Curl+bash works great for me. Super simple

@trying_to_exits My first language was JS, and these days I switch between JS and C. It’s a fun time lol

@ritu_twts How can you have a list of IDEs and include Jupyter but not vim or emacs. The horror!

@KaiXCreator Any Ubuntu distro will be easiest for a beginner. You can pick whatever desktop environment you prefer, that makes very little difference in the long run.

@ravikiran_dev7 Depends on what I’m doing. For heavy compilation, 32GB is bare minimum and 64GB makes things much more fun. For web dev though, 8GB is more than enough.

@Samaytwt If you’re a web developer, you’d be crazy for not using chrome or some chromium fork. It absolutely dominates the browser ecosystem.

@Samaytwt Sublime -> Vscode -> Neovim

Aka my descent into madness😜

@adahstwt Curl+bash

@redeemed_zoomer Thats awesome!

@MattWalshBlog @MattWalshBlog completely agree. One small nitpick though…

Booking a flight to avoid a five-hour drive is entirely contrary to my midwestern sensibilities. Midwesterners eat five-hour drives for breakfast 😂

@dhh @dhh thank you! You guys are always doing the coolest stuff!

@code Gotta be terminal😁

@andreiacribeir I really like coding on a Mac. Having an UNIX environment is quite nice, and it’s pretty much a necessity if you want to do any iOS development. The only time I would prefer windows is for .NET or gamedev.
