  • I’m using Asahi on an M1 Air I got for like $400 recently. Is legit, super easy install. Don’t have HDMI support, unfortunately, but that’s not the worst thing. I wish I liked more of the hardware of linux laptop manufacturers :( I tried to support various ones a few times but they are all just “adequate-at-best” laptops in terms of battery, keyboard, audio, screen, etc

  • Hadn’t heard of reiverr, you like it?

    I’ve been toying with the idea of creating a file-arr for analyzing disk usage, performing common operations, and exposing a web-based upload/download client so I don’t have to mount the volume everywhere.

    That’d be cool. There’s one that does transcoding and another that does unzipping

  • Unquestionably Golang if those are the two options. It’ll give you a much better base to work with if you are still earlier in your career and is much more applicable to a lot of things.

    Elixir is niche, the syntax doesn’t share a lot of patterns with other languages, and no one is hiring for it. Also few people know it.

    I want to caveat my answer with that I personally really like elixir, and would prefer to work with it myself over golang for some types of problems. Actor patterns are really cool.
