I have another one:
30min of fighting with an LLM can save you 10s of boilerplate
IF there is documentation, IF it is even covered in documentation, IF documentation is using the sameish keywords, IF documentation is accurate and IF documentation is up to date.
AKA not nix/nixos.
I mean, it’s fine. And if you can’t find something the NixOS subreddit is usually pretty helpful
what’s wrong with nixos?
I recently switched and the documentation is both extremely necessary (no other distro is even a little similar to setup) and TERRIBLE
I’ll be honest. I just followed a video tutorial
Looking at you, Texas Instruments

Bro what? TI has like… the best docs. What are you talking about? They have the Microsoft C# docs of the semiconductor world. Clear examples, every little detail, well organized. Darn near perfect example of what to do
Not really. I haven’t worked with a TI mcu for a while so I can’t talk about their mcu docs, but their sections describing data exchanges between the IC and your mcu usually has a lot of ambiguity that needs to be clarified through trial and error.
People tend to say this about everything. I read someone’s about Qt Documentation and that is after having learnt to do with Qt in 1 month using solely the Qt Creator’s F1, that I took over 3 months with STL.
Hey, 8 hours is a whole day well paid and if I fix it in 5 min I don’t wanna start allocating virtual memory for the next problem
How about 8 hours troubleshooting while trying to find the right documentation.
Jokes on you, using AI I got that time down to 4 hours trying to convince it to create working code, and 3 hours of debugging.
Never ask it to do regex. Holy fuck, thank God I was just doing it for funsies as a test of local LLMs. I got it to go into an infinite loop trying to figure out what I asked.
Hey! Riding the Battle Cat in the first panel, then a jet rider on the second!
