  • I definitely think they should help their families out. Helping them select an alternative service is helping out.

    Being on the hook for endless tech support while getting blamed for everything is not helping out. It’s also not healthy for your relationship with your sibling, and it’s not a good use of family holiday time.

    A partner is different. You already share a lot of infra, and since you presumably spend a lot more time together it’s not likely to impact your relationship as much unless you go full Pat & Mat do IT.





  • I can’t really think of anything that’s less frustrating than sh and ticks all your boxes. You can try TCL but it’s bound to be a removed show. It was painful to use two decades ago.

    Perl is a step up in terms of developer comfort, but it’s at the same time too big and too awkward to use.

    Maybe a statically linked Python?

    My recommendation would be to use a hard disk in a single computer, and to use a single operating system for a single computer.

    Then you pick the most capable, fastest, native FS that fits your bill.

    If you need to transmit data between computers, use the network. It’s that it’s there for.
