Can they solve the same problems as IT pros? Sure! But it’ll take them longer and the solution might be a little weird.
Well the person just wants a solution that works. They didn’t say it has to be the best solution of all solutions.
Vim or emacs? I mean I know they were created a long time ago, but they are both pretty good pieces of software, both highly configurable. I don’t understand people aversion to them, rather than having the false belief that they are too complicated? When in reality they just aren’t intuitive in terms of modern stuff. But they aren’t difficult, just different.
I mean people are going to put their hot takes wherever made them think of it. Just down vote and don’t engage. Unless especially egregious then report them
Depending on your language, your closest analogue is going to be interfaces. C# even has a where clause where you can restrict a generic type such that any type substituted must implements one or more interfaces. You can get quite a bit of trait like working there, from the function input side of stuff.
The biggest problem is, you can’t implement an interface for a type unless you have access to the type. So you’d have to really on wrapping types you don’t own to apply trait like interfaces to it.
And then there’s minor issues like, no such thing as associated types, or being able to specify constants in a definition. But you can usually work around that in a less nice way.
Not that they have much incentive in the first place. As history has shown, developers are quite happy NOT to make Linux ports at all. The market just isn’t big enough to care.
Once upon a time Internet Explorer was a great browser. Until they successfully forced the majority to use it.
Not on Arch it doesn’t. Almost all window managers have a package somewhere. There will be a lot of configuring, but no compiling.
I do tend to check protondb, people tend to have figured out the best options for the most stable performance for a lot of games.
Yeah, this is something I stressed at my place. Your Jeninksfile should set up environment variables, authentication related stuff, and call out to some build tool to build the project. The Jenkinsfile should also be configure to use a docker container to run the build within. In projects at my place that’s a Docker file on the project that ultimately sets up and installs all the tools and dependencies required for a valid build environment that’s just checked in along side the Jenkinsfile.
