Most of the high paying ones do yes. Not everyone gets to live in a top 4 or 5 metro.

If you haven't noticed a doubling cost of homes plus a double interest rates means many people are upside down and will need to sell their home at a loss. Even ghetto homes that cost $900 a month in 2019 now cost $1900 a month due to higher interest rates and sellers who are stubborn

When the recession hits next year your friend won't have a problem. I remember 2009 like it was yesterday when developers fought tooth and nail for $25/hr coding jobs or 55k a year with no benefits!

Shoot I remember a colleague putting an add for a Cisco CCNA certified network engineer for $10/hr and he had over 80 applicants and 7 we're qualified desperate for any job.

I bet today he could hire a laid off Facebook, Twitter, or Intel engineer who is going thru eviction and about to get his car repod for under 100k.

Since when does it offer performance and reliability improvements in gaming compared to WIndows?

DirectWrite is sweet and will give console like performance in instant loading times. Nvidia is also experimenting with it's own CUDA AI IO driver for professional server work loads.

The IO stack in 11 supports it. Windows 10 it does not. It explains why much faster NVME sticks vs SSDs do not offer quick booting which 11 will solve in loading game architecture.

Windows 11 has much better container and VM support and GPU access in WSL for machine learning and other things that 10 lacks.

Yeah like we still use Basic because it just was there from the beginning and of course Python was a fad ... wait.

Languages that suck like Basic tend to get replaced over time while some have a niche like Python. Java found a niche too as the 1990s COBOL replacement for large serverish environments. C is terrible and what caused DOS/Windows to suck and even Unix to a lesser extend due to memory problems, buffer overflows, pointer management and other issues.

  Fine with your kennel was only 10K in size in 1970s Unix and only ran on 3 types of devices but it is not manageable to where we are today. Unix guys are so afraid of change that we still have xorg and lots of other out of date stuff.

Rust as a simple low level language with safe memory handling is a Godsend in the 21st century

All the insults we give towards Windows apply to Unix equally. The bad design is from C and it is madness in the 21st century to be dealing with memory management and keeping track of these these things in a non safe environment. Rust is a Godsend

I have a team in Bangalore with 15 years of Rust experience

Cringe. I never liked Cygwin as it just translates posix to win32 calls in the worst ways where you get the bugs and quirks with both platforms.

Wsl you get a package manager which is a plus with a full distro to get up and running and no compiling needed and trying to get some dependency to work. There is always VMware workstation and hyper-V as ram, ssd drives and 8 to 16 core CPUs are plentiful now as an option too!

My name was created being an a MS hater troll being juvenile in 1999. A typical Unix fanboy who liked FreeBSD/OpenBSD and Linux second who threw hot grits down your pants back then for anyone who disagreed (only old timers would understand that reference)

There are no MS Fanboys. Most of us grew up and enjoy computers but hang out at layer 7 the app layer of the OSI model and stopped autistically obsessing on operating systems. Call us broken Stokeholm syndrome who just numbed out to get work done?

I gave up in anger over Linux 12 years ago and also seeing Windows 7 being a somewhat meh competent OS finally with fonts, hardware acceleration with smooth scroll, and abunch of small things which rock as a simple desktop OS. My ex-wife thought it was bizarre I always reinstalled Linux and switched distros when her Vista worked fine?

12 years later I didn't have an answer. I still don't. I did try Linux again last year when I got a 3080ti to learn machine learning and wow what a cluster**** with the Nvidia proprietary drivers. Linux mint 20 was a no go and Fedora Cinnamon misrendered fonts in Firefox after waking up from sleep. Linux developers are too incompetent to make a real desktop after 20 years. In 2000 macosx had hardware acceleration. Wayland after 12 years is still not ready?! Xorg is atrocious and was designed for 40 year old smart terminals not as a desktop framework.

I could go on and on. Maybe developers reading this should look into the mirror and not be mad at those of us who switched back to Windows as our main OS?

Ill stick to wsl to run Linux apps tyvm

Speaking of modern computers have you Googled AMDs 7950x and 7900 CPUs? You can get 12 - 16 core 32 thread monsters for $3500! It's 2022 virtualize what you need and use the cores for the OS of your choice.

Your encodings could be finished in 2 to , 3 minutes easily on a 7950x beast! Hyper-v is available on Windows 11 pro which can run wsl 2 and real full operating systems. VMware workstation while not cheap is there and gnome boxes qemu on Linux can run Windows but probably not audio workflows well.

Wsl is a must for any IT professional in the past 5 years. You can even install your favorite distros with it. It beats crappy cygwin any day as you have a real package manager from a distro

You need to install optional updates aka preview. Then the store will offer you the full thing in addition to Windows 10 22h2 not 22h1. The article was not clear about this as last months regular update does not have this ...yet .

Also if you want to bypass the store you need to install the virtual platform feature to enable the wsl 2 bit. If you installed your distro already you will then need to convert it to wsl2 via the command line with the wsl /?.

SystemD and Unix sockets have been around for awhile now in wsl2 and my hunch is you have wsl1.

That's hyper-v not wsl2. People confuse them as wsl only offers a container and subset of the full hypervisor set. Hyper-v encapsulates and swallows the host as a VM itself. Wsl 2 doesn't go that far. Hyper-v on Windows client not server, purposely limits GPU access so Microsoft can upsell Windows Server.

Google bcdedit vbox and hyper-V? Also bcdedit and friendly name description? Basically you need to copy your UEFI boot entry and give it a name and a startup argument to not run the hypervisor similar to Grub?

At startup you will be granted a menu to choose. Android studio also now supports AMDs hypervisor as well as a Microsoft now and is no longer tied to just Intels HamX

Yes.

Google bcdedit box and hyper-V and follow Scott Haslemens website that is the first hit? He works at Microsoft. You need to use bcdedit to copy your boot entry and assign it a no hypervisor argument.

Then Google bcdedit description friendly name to rename your current entry to something like Virtualization Enabled and you can name the copy Windows 11 pro or virtualbox. It's a hassle but necessary
