Installing Linux (Ubuntu 20.04) on an external portable SSD and pitfalls to be aware of

<p>If you are a software developer, you have probably come across the dilemma of choosing your operating system. This is a big decision to make, since each operating system comes with its own pros and cons, and you will be stuck with them for quite a while. For people who are just getting into coding, below is my personal opinion on pros and cons of each operating system.</p> <p>Why programmers tend to prefer Linux is because a lot of open-source code (especially in the research stage) are developed on it. This doesn&rsquo;t mean that it is better than Windows or Mac necessarily, but it is definitely more accessible because it is free and open-source, so many research labs, companies and cloud computing providers run Linux on their remote clusters.
