My experience was different: after using Linux for a decade, I had to use a company MacBook for a year, and I was happy to return to my "normal" laptop afterward. Even though it couldn’t run Deus Ex like MacBook.
Mit meinem Kommentar wollte ich auf Schröders Beziehungen mit Gazprom hinweisen. Es ist in der Welt üblich genug, dass korrumpierte Beamte mit „Pensionen“ belohnt werden. Eine hohe faire Pension soll es verhindern.
If I know that’s a tool I will use a lot, I will try to read its documentation. I’ll just look up the basic info for basic tasks otherwise.
Reminds me how times ago I would install a new GUI application and then would just go through every menu, every setting, every dialog it had. This was much quicker than documentation and still gave me an outline of what’s possible.
I guess I’m one of the few here who uses pretty much the same approach with 4 colors as the author, with even another twist. I’m not saying I followed the same train of thought to come to this conclusion, but the names of my constants and functions are black, strings are green, and numbers are blue. The keywords and punctuation are gray to be less visible, not unlike in Python.
The added twist is a nod in the direction of people saying the white background burns their retinas, but there are more background colors than blue and white. I chose a calm light-green one, which I also use whenever I’m reading texts. It’s not exactly the combination with the most points in the scientific readability research, but I remember that the dark background lost that competition.
I attribute to these choices the fact that I notice many more typos in the code of my colleagues than they do in mine.
