surprised to find you werent a big channel already, already a banger and its the just the start! vim + linux + code + random challenges + playing around with unconfigured things and finding arcane and fun ways to do things is totally my jam, instasubbed!
Thank you! Yeah, I have a ton of fun just doin nerdy linux things. Vanilla Vim is honestly so much fun to use once you learn the features and then the features stay relevant even with a totally kitted out neovim config with tons of plugins. Definitely one of my best learning investments ever was reading practical vim. Full disclaimer, I have read that book cover to back, but it's been a while and i've forgotten a ton. I really want to work on my macros this time around. Glad to have you aboard!
@@nathanlaundry I always say that vim is a one of those "metroidvanias" where you unlock things and you can go further where before you simple could not (eg, understand what weird mode you were in, or a cryptic error message, something that you have used 9999 times now has a new meaning and the depth just expands) and its exciting!
Hey folks, I wanted to try some quicker lower editing videos for quick ideas like this. Let me know how ya find it. I'll still be doing the big project + tutorial videos like ZFS Boot Menu and the GlazeWM video, but sometimes it's fun to share little things like this.
I'll admit Bash is syntactically a little awkward, but with a little practice you can get used to its quirks. I also don't recommend going all the way through every advent of code problem and their part 2 problem. Just a handful of the early ones (days 1 to 5 maybe), assuming you've got a little past scripting or programming experience, can build some familiarity pretty quickly. But for the folks who are brand new to scripting, maybe I'll do a follow up video covering the basics and how I'll approach advent day 1.
Thank you! I really appreciate it :D I don't have one yet but It's something I want to do down the road. Before I launch one though I'd want to make sure I can nail the moderation and give people a great community experience. If I'm creating a space for people, it's super important to me that it's friendly, safe, and gives them some value.

nice and helpful content bro, keep going....
Glad you liked it! Thanks for the encouragement!
Also! I've turned off that super annoying windows terminal bell sound. No more of that nonsense in my videos!

Dude, most people can't even do Advent of code in languages they know, let alone a joke like bash

10/10 UA-cam channel man. Any chance you got Discord? It's time to build a community server 🤓!
