I’m a Linux user since 2001, I saterted with KDE 2.2 or something. I stopped using it in favor of Gnome, XFCE and recently fluxbox over the years.

A few days ago I decided to give it a try again and I have to say I’m impressed. KDE has reached a level of sophistication I had never seen before in any other Linux desktop environment. For me the experience is almost on par with macOS and slightly above windows.

Interesting but too complicated for me.

For my own hashmap implementation I followed a wasteful aproach since I’m. It targeting embedded.

I created a structure called a hashmap object. It has two elements: a void pointer and a char pointer. The first one is the data and the second one is the metadata. The metadata is basically a string were the user can put anything, the type of the data, more data, whatever.

Then I preallocate 10s of thousands of hashmap objects. That way users of my hashmap don’t have to think about aollocating and de allocating hashmap nodes, they just insert, delete and search freely. They still have to care about allocating and de allocating they’re own data though.

Any alternatives to this forum? I've never heard heard of this until now and as someone who spends a lot of time making music as a hobby sounds like a community I'd like to be part of.

The way I see it, there’s conflict between her professional goals and her hacking goals.

The way I avoid that is by keeping that separate. But might not be for everyone.

I’ve been an amateur bass player since 2008. My GAS stopped when I took a year of lessons from professional player. I learned that most of the sound comes from good playing technique.

This is good advice. Nowadays I still earn my money from IT but I don’t do any programming. On my free time I’m doing my own stuff at my own pace mostly on Linux and C. It’s wonderful.

I imagine “a lot of care” like this:

Ok, let’s write this veeery slowly, good, let’s check now it got written as intended. Right, let’s check again just in case, but this time slowly and paying a lot of attention… ok looks, good, moving on
