Linux vs Windows (why doesn't this work?) #shorts #linux #windows

Did you know this? I'm thinking of creating a lot of Linux shorts. You want me to?

[repugnant]

I've noticed that Linux is more OCD and really requires you to pay attention to detail.

Windows' file API is intentionally case-insensitive by default, but you can toggle a flag to enforce case-sensitivity. Note that NTFS format is actually case-sensitive!

Unfortunately this is one of the reasons that causes cross-platform build problem - A Windows dev might not realise its include path doesn't work in Linux!

I’m learning about the basics of Linux in school right now. You always seem to post things relevant to what I’m learning as I’m learning it

"the quieter you become the more you hear"

The thing that suprised me the most is the in Windows if you type "cd desktop" in command prompt it moves you to "Desktop", but if you do it in powerShell it moves you to "desktop" (still lower case), but when you type "dir" you can see that it is indeed "Desktop". Great videos! I love them 👌👌

[robindeboer]

the worst part about windows being case insensitive. Change the filename of a file in a git repo to be lowercase when it was uppercase and watch it not actually update anything when you git

[ryanwalker]

press tab when trying to find paths, makes it a bit easier to confirm if a directory of file exists if it auto completes.

Linux and windows is case sensitive in the API and low level instructions but high level instructions convert to the correct format. In the old day of 6Bit or 7Bit byte format, you only had upper case characters and MS want to backward compatible with this.

this is one of my biggest gripes with Linux. Honestly I wish all OS handled this like Windows. It would make engineering software compatibility SO much easier

Or you could add "shopt -s cdspell" to your bashrc, and Linux will helpfully autocorrect your cd command for any one of: A) wrong letter, B) missing letter, C) extra letter, and D) two letters swapped. Append "nocaseglob" to that line, insert a "*" character literally anywhere in your <path-to-file>, and you get the full case-insensitive experience, albeit at the price of having to mash the shift key again.

[WilburJaywright]

I remember being frustrated, trying to rename a file in Windows because I accidentally capitalized one of the letters.

[mgusa]

Yes! Absolutely. Shorts are great. I need to watch all of your videos. Excellent stuff, major motion!! Thx!!

[NiceforaPapolonias-gr]

WOW I gonna try and share to them. Thank you for the information.

[meow-mrp-nya]

wdym linux lmao, that's just something with your shell, i am sure you could find or create a shell that isn't case sensitive, or one for windows that is

[HashtagTech]

Sir how can i get zero device and i have to say u doing great job

[PlayerNerfed]

Mean I appreciate they make you be specific considering you can completely brick it in Linux by mistake if you dont know what your doing.

[ErkanVural]

Absolutely a fantastic channel! I love your videos and shorts keep up the good work man!

[raajputsingh]

Something we can try is make a desktop (lowercase) directory in windows and accessing it via cli

[MikeMeadors]

I knew this ages ago. Linux does this to make hacking more complicated but also because they got so many handles on their commands. Lower and upper case letters do differently.
