  • Some time ago I wanted to start learning a functional language and looked at Ocaml and Elixir. Ocaml looked like a quite versatile language but in the end I went with Elixir because it looked like it could open up more new use cases compared to the languages I already knew (Python, C). Massive concurrency looked cool and also I wanted to get a bit into web dev stuff and Elixir has the Phoenix framework for that. So depends on what you want to do with it I’d say and how experienced you already are.

    This reminds me of when I got a Nintendo DS as a kid with Anno 1701 and you saved the game there was a message like “all previous data will be overwritten, do you want to continue?”. It took me some time until I realised that that is not a bad thing and actually intended.









  • I got Canoe and jrwm to show me some windows. But on other WMs I think they just don’t register my keypresses like they should so there a re no windows showing up. Maybe I’m missing some other package or step that is so “well known” that it’s not included in any of the setup guides. In general I think the setup process to a basic functioning system is just more involved than I’ve had on other DEs. And I’m probably not deep enough into Linux and am expecting more from the window manager than it actually offers.


  • I like the concept and tried it on Arch once but couldn’t really get most window managers to work. The screen was just black and there was no mouse movement. I searched for some tutorials on how to get started but couldn’t find any. Do you have tips on how to get a working basic setup from which you can actually try out all the different WMs?
