Went with Plasma first - did not go well. I simply cannot get comfortable with it and general look and feel is not working for me (I prefer defaults and I avoid much tweaking and any 3rd party customization). I settled on Cinnamon, but it was close tie with GNOME which was actually quite refreshing experience for me.
So, to each his own, but I just do not see KDE as "the sanest" default.

Maybe Crystal, Free Pascal even.
This is only personal observation, not direct remark to your case. I've just seen similar scenarios too many times.
On the other hand - I've played with Arch since early beginnings, but last time more than 10 years ago. Although minimal, simple and straightforward, I have never been able to grope that rolling-release core philosophy.
Anyway the question for HN - is it too "late" for a person to consider career change in 33? To clarify, I am not in IT business, my formal education (and job) is in business administration, however with recent and important changes in my private and work life, I am considering to bite the bullet. Initially, I considered back-end development, but actually Linux sysadmin might be more appropriate for me.
It is great encouragement that time investment is never lost if it is something you love and enjoy, even when no one else has benefit of it.
But then, why this tutorial? Why write an adventure game using a general-purpose programming language? Because doing so can be entertaining, challenging and educational. The programming language C may not be the most obvious choice for writing a text adventure; it's nothing like LISP-based languages like MDL and ZIL. But while writing my own humble text adventure, I learned that C fits the bill quite well.
I am pretty sure that most of people can use it as domestic media consumption device (it really is perfect use case), however when it comes to work, people I meet in my business use it for it’s compact size and battery life (great for travels and portability in general), as well presentation-wise possibilities.
Most of modern heat pumps (air to water) can work without issue all they way to -15/20* C.
