I know nothing about coding and a few days ago I've had gpt building a windows application from nothing. It's slowly going, only problem is it still sometimes gives me code that's for other stuff that I don't have. I've learned to ask "are you sure this works with electrion ect?" everytime.
If I can build a personal complex application from scratch with 0 knowledge beforehand with only a few issues then gpt 5.0 or something near is literally going to allow tech illiterate to do so.
Just my opinion from someone who isn't in the coding sphere or whatever.

@@jackoverton8343 yeah the problem is that if GPT can’t fix a bug you’re cooked.
And it's too dumb, at least the free version. Everytime I tried it the code is buggy or doesn't even compile. Not to mention it violates the GPL @@runningn2life818
@@jackoverton8343 You can do simple stuff with LLMs easily. To do complex things you would need to give a lot of context, you would need to know which is relevant which is not(that is also an expertise). If you give irrelevant stuff, it will loop around it. Most of the time giving enough context is harder than doing the job. I think it is a great productivity tool. Code generation for simpler changes and having a starting code very easily is great. But I think we are at least a century away from eliminating developer role. At best it reduces the need. Developers need to tackle more complex stuff now that is all IMO.

"All OS's suck, you just choose the one that sucks the least for your current task."
NixOS is a real game changer for me. I had to write a configuration once and now I can use it on other machines with one command.
After many attempts, I have finally managed to get my system to run from a nix flake. I feel as though I am at the pinnacle of system configuration, staring down at all the normies running arch installs below. Whats a Gentoo? sounds like a waste of cpu resources. If nix configurations can be likened to distros, then I have the power to build an entire distribution from a single short command. All my settings, my apps, my 6gbs of lutris & steam... they can all be installed from a single git repository on any computer of my choosing. I... No, We have reached the elevator to Olympus and sat upon the seats of the Gods.
No one man should have all this power.
Gentoo is better. Its the OG meta distribution.

@@jjm8907Nah Gentoo can be just as simple as Arch. Its just that you have far more freedom to the makeup of your individual system. This notion of having to spend days optimizing your system is not based in fact.

What are you talking about? I've been using WSL as my dev environment (with vim and then nvim, not that vscode crap) for three years. It's honestly getting better and better.
Tried WSL because I’m too much of a pu$$y to ditch Windows outright, and found it too quirky. There were little things that just didn’t resolve correctly for whatever reason.
As a Android developer it was actually fun to see how JetBrains first replaced Eclipse workspace that was pain in the ass with Android Studio, to later replace Java 1.8 with Kotlin so Oracle can start to copy kotlin features into later versions of Java
Thanks for settling it, once and for all!
JetBrains integration was so smooth that I thought you were going to dunk on it 💀
"JetBrains integration is so smooth" is a pretty common them tbf.
My experience with Linux Mint (coming from a Wndows background) is a pleasant one. No need to make your own drivers, everything mostly works out of the box. I don't even miss Windows anymore.
Had a similar experience with Mint, but now I'm rich so as the flow chart predicts I use MacOS
I am using fedora nowadays because it is extremely compatible with scientific software. But my first Linux was mint. I recommend it for everyone that wants a Linux that just works. Pop OS is also cool

"FreeBSD is superior to all of them, but I don't want that secret to come out.."
FreeBSD is actually goated in some aspects but unfortunately software compatibility will hold it back forever. i know a few BSD devs that run Debian to write code for BSD.
I gave it a try for a few weeks, really didn't see the appeal of it over Linux. The cons outweighed the pros IMHO, though I would use it before switching to Windows or Mac. More adoption and software support would be huge win, but this is the classic chicken/egg problem.

WSL2 along with 1 minute long POST convinced me back to Windows. Running any Linux distro at snap of my finders is just great.
1 : don't, just don't. WSL is far more unstable than anyone seems to admit.
2 : no OS should take a minute to POST on any hardware. I just got a Win11 pro VM to run usably on a gig of ram and a monocore and it still went from complete shut down to desktop in like 30 seconds. Granted that was with debloating, but any linux distro should boot basically instantly on modern hardware unless you're using LUKS or something which can delay boot by a bit.
3 : distrobox is a thing? As are VMs? Citing WSL wrt this is just weird, especially since it only really is even servicable with CLI tools, where distro version shouldn't even really matter, especially not on a user machine, and anything where you absolutely *_need_* that specific distro exactly, WSL couldn't satisfy because it's not a 1:1 version of the distro. The main difference between distros is presets and packages, unless you're specifically testing if something works on a given distro or something you really shouldn't need to change them, like, ever. And if you *_are_* testing app compatibility then WSL can't do that because it's not the 'real' distro. For that work you'd need VMs, which can still be basically instant no matter your hardware since you can save & restore their state.
@@felixjohnson3874 Could be just me but I use it as my day to day production environment and everything seems fine so far. I run AMD setup with 4x32gb so POST time is noticeable and even if I could save just 30sec time staring at blank screen it is still worth it to me. And I need to support legacy SW that requires certain packages that would otherwise cause conflicts so just isolating them in separate instance is a win to me. And also "only serviceable with CLI" does not really hold in 2024, with good x11 server you can run just about anything as good as it would run under native linux.
@taqial-faris6421 unless the newyear got moved to the start of may and microsoft released a complete rewrite sometime in the past two weeks, no it's really not usable for anything except small once offs. And, again, even if it were, these things already exist with far more stability, far more documentation, and far easier management on linux natively. If it's even a remotely modern device and has virtualization acceleration then you can save and restore VMs in their exact last state in a matter of seconds.
I had to completely remake my borg repository like half a dozen times because of how many times a basic bitch ubuntu instance got completely hung. And thats ignoring the filesystem inconsistency and the fact that it even corrupted that external drive on a fucking filesystem level, leading to undeletable phantom files.
Again, it can save you in a pinch, but I'd consider going as far as calling it 'stable' not just overselling it but a flat out bold faced lie and I use Nvidia, Wayland, several Arch derivatives that pull from the stock repos, make liberal use of the AUR, etc. That is my bar for 'stability' and Windows/WSL is so far underneath it they can't even see it.

Amazing video. One of your best yet.

I think you should append "do you like being heavily vendor locked?" to the "are you rich" block of the flow chart of the end
True. If I was rich I’d see it as “sweet I make enough money from interest and dividends to live off of so I have time to dick around on Linux”

To be as performant and efficient as possible, I used FreeRTOS on my PC and programmed each component, such as the compiler, browser, editors, window manager, build system, file system, user authentication, and drivers, by myself.

3:50 - I started programming about 4 years ago using Windows, but over the past 2 years I've been using Linux so much more (though in a dual-boot setup) for coding that I had forgotten Windows uses different slashes
Probably because backslashes in Windows are almost irrelevant these days. Nearly everything accepts both forward and backslashes.
I develop on Windows and I also forgot Windows uses different slashes. I blame Git Bash. It gives me 99% of the convenience with 0% of the hassle.
Same here
Kali and windows
Got to dual boot so you can play video games. It's the best of both worlds, work in linux play in windows.
you can avoid dual booting if you use qemu (or another hypervisor), I used it a while ago when I wanted to play a game that isn't wine-supported or is a bit difficult to setup on Linux/Wine, like "steamworks fix"
Mentioning Temple OS at the end....THAT WAS EPIC!
Wsl is indeed awesome. My only drawbacks for me are: 1) filesystem can be slow; 2) local host address ( especially if you want to make two applications to communicate not as interprocess). There is a kind of a network mirroring feature in the pre-realise wsl version but it never worked for me. If they include that wsl will be perfect for me.
Your style is brilliant!
Thanks for pointing out to privacy issues!
Also the best Ad integration ever) first time not skipped)
WSL2 was a game changer for me. I moved from Mac OS to Ubuntu based Pop OS and eventually to Windows in order to run my favorite graphics editor Affinity Designer (and some games). WSL2 made it possible for me to move back to Windows.
I mean there is little reason to ”move back to windows” if you are already inside it. You would be moving back to windows without wsl, or simply: you would stop using wsl.
I just started using pop os, i think it's better than Ubuntu
Best of all worlds. Apple is not even an option anymore, too much hassle with their own cpu etc. Linux is best for servers but that's it. Too many restrictions and too much work to keep going. Soo we get the use the best of the bad. Windows..
I wish Affinity would be available on Linux.

Real devs use HP-UX.
Have also spent the past ten years or so using all three OS’s and your assessment is on point.
I use OpenBSD, since it has everything you need for a full server preinstalled. Like webserver, ssl cert requester, https proxy, dns server, mailserver, firewall and a vpn server.
thank you. i sometimes run my firewall on OpenBSD but my file server is FreeBSD, and now... i am toying around with NixOS everywhere.
I'd rather just have a container orchestrator and run my web apps and servers on top of that.
Thanks I didn't know about that!
8:11 The final question LOL😆RIP Terry!
Very entertaining! Well done.
If I end up using WSL on windows just to have a Linux environment I prefer just running windows in a VM and Linux as the host. WSL is just a vm that’s running on Hyper-V with some special bindings.

Oddly, I was expecting a Casually Explained outro music at the end of the video.
Because Casually Explained usually drops a humorous nonsequitur in the final second to close a video.
in my experience, WSL just keeps breaking in weird ways and having weird incompatabilities. Running Linux on the machine allows you to make use of the whole capabilities of the system, with windows+wsl you need to deal with windows for everything around your linux system, which was enough of a pain for me to switch back
you have to upgrade to WSL2 and configure to use systemd then no breaking
Works on my machine
WSL2 is also crap, might as well just use VM
Yup, tried running neovim on both wsl and windows, never worked properly. Been on linux ever since. Installing other tools and packages id also such a pain
I agree with the dealing with Windows around your Linux, and that's the part I like. I just can't get used to Mac lack of windows visibility and Ubuntu which is the most Windows-like is still pretty bad UI idk

For the last 3 years, I have been programming on a Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra running Samsung DEX with termux, tmux, vim, git, and lighttpd. Sometimes qemu when Docker contrainers or multiple versions of nodejs are necessary.
I tried that on the same phone, but docker was just way to slow without pKVM.
Yes, I can't imagine using Windows without WSL anymore. It's become an essential tool.
Thank you for the video.
WSL is awesome, but before it, virtual machines were essential tools. I remember in 2012 using a windows laptop (upgraded with more RAM and fast SSD) to run VMWare Workstation with MacOS, to develop for iOS. Worked amazingly well for my use case.
@@soonts… or having to deal w/ VirtualBox. It’s all great software, but overhead was so much (both CPU/Memory and your time). Then we tried to abstract it away with Vagrant to orchestrate the VM’s consistently, then Puppet to provision them consistently, etc… so glad WSL2 + OCI (containers) are a thing now; dramatically simplifies things and speeds them up, too!

it's such a broad topic, there are so many areas of programming and they all are very different. it's like asking what is the best tool for a doctor? for surgeon it is scalpel, for ophthalmologist it is ophthalmoscope
Stupid comparison, whole OS is more of a multitool than just scalpel. Its like asking multiple doctors if they want all needed, and some extra tools for their job in one chasis which can be easily modified but is cumbersome, or do they prefer limited tool which can cover much less of medicine related tasks, but is easier to use and pushes on you GUI to activate certain component
@@avarise5607 In some sense I agree with you, comparison might be not as illustrative as I thought. But I still believe that depending on the type of a developer you are affects your choice of OS. Gamedev on linux? Of course not, as well as gamedev on mac (if we are talking about PC gamedev). Game developers use windows in 99% of cases. Server administration - of course Linux. Can you see what I mean now? There is no OS which can fulfill needs of all different kinds of developers. However, to be objective, it's necessary to mention that some areas of development are independent of the OS, for example AI or web development.
I have pondered about this dilema for ages, but that flowchart seems about right.

As someone with Windows Home Edition, it's truly mind-boggling when you need a thing that it just doesn't let you do for whatever reason. I accidentally made my main user not a real user, because I had to switch myself to the admin group, and then back to a docker user. The menu was a RADIO BUTTON, so you could only pick one, and by going for "custom" (which was a dropdown so you could only pick one option) it yeeted me from being a regular user.

You can trick a new Windows 11 computer into using a local account by not connecting to any wired/wifi networks during the initial setup. It will begrudgingly allow you to create a local-only account. However if you connect even once before setup is compete, you'll need to factory reset to start over.
