rust compiles to native code, so barring some horrific implementation issues, i'd bet my money on it being roughly equivalent.
you're absolutely right about that last point. my fully-spec'd t440p (4910mq, 16GB, 1080p IPS, t450p trackpad, backlit, quectel eg25-g for WWAN, the whole 9 yards) cost me less than $300 to build -- a similar machine from minifree would've cost nearly double that for worse specs. though, it should be noted, that that price gets you more than silicon -- they offer support over IRC, some sort of warranty, and i think other shit too.
in my experience, practice, practice, and more practice. but "just git gud m8" isn't really helpful advice. if you don't have half a decade on hand, i can make a few more practical recommendations.
a shell that can do argument autocomplete is your best friend. personally, i use zsh + ohmyzsh + fzf + fzf-tab, but i'm sure there are other configs, and i've heard ohmyzsh is a bit of a nightmare, though i haven't had too many issues.
so let's say you're running the one rsync command this month, and you forgot the args, just tab-tab and you can search through the arguments with fzf.
weird -- they work for me. ctrl+c sends SIGINT, and ctrl+v iirc isn't treated specially. i figured sending SIGINT with kill would then preform a copy, but it doesn't. fuck. now i have another puzzle...
is this the part where i get to smugly use i3? :P
i love backwards compatibility as much as the next guy, but at some point, if there isn't enough of a community to backport fixes, there probably aren't many using them. if a tree falls in the forest, you get the idea.
