The AI can provide me with informations that I consider to be hints rather than authoritative answers. But I want authoritative answers most of the time, I'm person who want's to be 100% sure about anything, but AI algorithms do not give me that guarantee.

You're not stupid, but I assure you at least 80% of open source code if you want to use it you have to be able to understand the language being used and be able to fix and adapt the code to your needs. Good open source coders are rare so good luck finding their repos and be ready to fix stuff...

I used the AI only once, it was about searching rare grimoires and asking the AI to sort them according to expensivness and rarity. This kind of stuff is hard to find online and the AI was helpful, but otherwise I don't respect, trust or use the AI.

You need Dark Reader extensions to render web pages in dark if that's what you mean?

@Alexzee Linus Torvalds once said that bad coders care about the code while good coders care about data structures. And I disagree with him, no wonder Linux kernel is so hard to understand and to read with his programming logic. He writes quality code, but where are the people willing to read...

@The Duck I suggest you donate books to local library, they'll make use of them and dump what's worthless. This way some people will have use of them and you won't need to dump them all alone.

KDE is the best Linux DE, period. The only thing I don't like about it is that it uses QT which is a horrible vintage UI toolkit.

Every piece of code is bad in the eyes of a pedantic coder. I consider myself pedantic, when ever I clone something from GitHub the very first thing I do is fixing bad formatting, syntax errors, build errors or what ever other stuff that I don't like. The code might be functional and quality...

I'm having same problem with this site pretty often, bad gateway error. Sometimes the error is stuck on cloudflare sometimes on host (linux.org).

All extensions work on Linux just fine, at least all of those which I use work on Linux, I heavily use extensions and they all work. Reason they work is because they're written in TypeScript which is the language of VSCode extensions API, so there is no platform specific code. Those extensions...

lol no! VSCode is cross platform, there is Linux variant as well: https://code.visualstudio.com/download

For pleasant programming you shouldn't care so much about distro and DE, but rather about your development tools and environment. Debian + LXDE will surely save you a lot of resources that can be otherwise spent for development tools. VSCode for instance might consume large amounts of memory...

LXDE is the least resource consuming among all DE's I know of, so if you want to go a low as possible then LXDE But keep in mind that those low resource DE's aren't feature rich like KDE or GNOME

If your PC isn't super duper Debian might as well be good choice. But it also depends on DE (Desktop Environment) which you install, some consume less resources some more.
