Software

General pieces of advice for me

  • Exercising regularly really does help.
  • Use bash for scripts when the script will run less than 10 times in a lifetime.
  • Use python for scripts when you want to be able to edit them.
  • Use PlatformIO for embedded development, unless there is no mature rust HAL for a MCU.
  • Prefer wgpu over platform specific APIs for graphics programming.
  • Always benchmark stuff when optimizing, no exception.
  • Try to avoid web development if you can, its hell incarnate.
  • After some testing, Music actually slows you down, unless you are doing something that requires no thinking.
  • For downloading music,
yt-dlp -x --embed-subs --embed-metadata --embed-thumbnail --add-metadata "https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLNPkZsUXzlEjvQemMGAnBifR4yNFO4dpb" -N 8 -I -1:-10:-1
