  • If you’re in the position to do so: try getting a job as a software developer for a year before going to college. If you’re able to demonstrate you’ve already worked on your own projects, you will be taken more seriously than cs majors fresh out of college who’ve only seen code in home work assignments. Do this to get to see how software development works as a career and see if you fit in it.
    You don’t generally need a degree to be a programmer and in this field, experience is often more valuable than a degree. What college can offer is connections and the opportunity to find your actual calling.

    Maybe not “the people” who are doing the oppressing, but it worked when appealing to the individual.
    Society is a bit of a bitch… individuals hold their own beliefs, but when paired with other people, their beliefs get washed down and a singular belief takes hold.









  • You’re installing a headless system right? Ubuntu and Debian are going to have very similar if not downright identical day to day operating procedures, including installing and setting up new things. Ubuntu is going to have software packages coming from a different repository and they may be newer (though this rarely matters) and the initial install may be different. One is backed by a for profit corporation and one by a large open source community. Whenever you need help, guides for Debian will probably work on Ubuntu and vice versa.

    For home self hosting use, it boils down to you own philosophy. In practice, it won’t really matter… they’re both really similar.

    I proudly use Debian BTW.


  • They often do criticize these movies based on what the movie is trying to say. They’re not comparing them to movies in other genres.
    Superhero movies are often formulaic, predictable, overly rely on CGI, have shallow stories and plots. Logan, The Dark Knight, Spider Verse etc. were praised by critics for not committing the same mistakes other super hero movies do. The criticisms describe what kept the movie back from being a truly great super hero movie, not what kept it back from being Citizen Kane.
    And even after all that, they’re still subjective opinions. You don’t have to agree with them on what a better super hero movie looks like.
