Kann nur zustimmen. Wenn du den Job wirklich wechseln möchtest, solltest du einfach ein Zwischenzeugnis anfordern. Es ist auch durchaus üblich sich ein Zwischenzeugnis auszustellen zu lassen, wenn die Abteilung, Aufgabe oder der Vorgesetzte innerhalb der Firma sich ändert. Bzgl. der Formulierung kannst du da auch ChatGPT zur Hilfe nehmen wenn dir dass schwer fällt. Aber lass Begründen raus warum du ein Zwischenzeugnis willst. Das steht dir zu. Wenn doch die Frage kommt, bezieht dich einfach drauf das sich deine Tätigkeit oder deine Vorgesetzten in den Jahren seit deiner Einstellung stark verändert haben.

I am not an Arch-user, but I would say so. At least Nix itself claims that their unstable channel is the largest and most up-to-date package repository currently followed by AUR. So yes, I think you can have best of both worlds - a rock solid base system with the newest software via Nix. It even gets better with Home Manager.

The Mac hardware does limit the choice of distributions a bit. Besides that I can highly recommend Debian 12 as a rock solid base system with Nix as package manager to get latest and greatest software. Actually the nice thing is that you can use Nix package manager on any Linux distribution.

The main reason is that there is no single Linux operating system. Linux basically is just the kernel. Every thing else around this kernel, like tools, applications and libraries, is highly customisable and exists in form of various forms of Linux operating system distributions. The fact that these distributions are very different from each other makes it almost impossible to certify industrial products for „the Linux“ operating system. There are just too many variations of it.

Only had the time to solve part 1, but had a lot of fun with it. Here's my solution: d03/p1

Is anyone else like me, but it took me longer to understand what I was supposed to do on day 2 than on day 1? However, here is my solution written in Golang: https://github.com/alexruf/adventofcode2023/tree/main/d02

My solution is not pretty at all, but it does the job: Golang

I have been using Firefox ever since. Never really had a reason to switch to something else.

To maybe give you some ideas, have a look at SimpleX and the Nostr. I haven't looked into it in detail yet, but at first glance these two seem to work similarly.

Actually there’s an idea sparking up on me.

When I was a junior programmer there were some business guys coming up with the requirement to implement their own validation language (similar to regex). I always thought it is totally stupid to invent your own instead of using something that already exists. But it turned out to be great fun implementing it. I had no prior knowledge in implementing parsers and interpreters. But man I was so proud after I came up with my own solution for the problem. It was such fun, that I even was doing over hours. At the end I create my own tokenizer, a parser and an interpreter. Even something similar to what I now know most people would call an AST (abstract syntax tree).

However, I know I have bought the Crafting Interpreters book without having read it. I really should start digging into it.

Yea doing some FOSS contributions definitely was something I always was considering. But then as soon as I was looking for the right project things started to get complicated again. And even if you find a cool project you look into the issue list and imposter-syndrome starts kicking in.

When I had a look on it a while ago they didn’t support Docker Compose. But except this it’s a drop in replacement.
