I hate the shitty threads you people make.
I want to share what has opened my eyes, for other novices like me, who are trying to leave Winslop 11.

This thread is supposed to put you on the right track to making your own decision,
after reading this thread the fog of Linux won't be there anymore,
you will know what you want and you will find the distro that is suitable for you.

> 1. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/1b/Linux_Distribution_Timeline.svg
This old image includes 95% of all Linux distros in existence, study this.

Studying this image alone, is going to help you see through idiotic arguments like "mint is better" or "go with arch" or "go with pop_os" -- most of them have a parent OS.

> 2. Distro arguments are pointless. #1 choice that you must make is what family Linux do you want and pick.
If you studied image above, you will see there distinct few families of Linux, the relevant ones are: Debian, Fedora, Arch.

They're the ultimate big boy poorfag purchase, people who want value will go for a 5070ti and the only reason to get a 5080 instead is if you feel absolutely desperate about getting a """premium""" product to feel superior to your peers while not having the means to go for a real high end card.
I don't remember seeing such a pathetic display from any card owner in the last ten years. Literal jeetgpu.

I enjoy the fact that people who lack a strong understanding of the algorithm vs the medium expect the world will somehow change when the exact same people are still around except digital, because they can;t even mentally engage with the premise; but I enjoy it even more because they'll be committing suicide in the long run and within 60 years they'll all be dead due to their dogmatism...
That's nice to think about anyways, but in reality you faggots just lack self awareness and will "know it when you see it", so as soon as brain uploading is popular and clearly successful (ie the people are the same before and after upload) you'll suddenly have always supported brain uploading and all the arguments you scoffed at before will suddenly become meaningful.

Thank you! I will be sure to keep those ideas on my mind next time I'm trying to build something.
>it's great for quickly getting you details on problems that might have taken a while before but you need to understand that it frequently makes up bullshit so you need to verify its output
How I can verify its output when I don't even know what is going on? I think for compiler errors I should tell it what happened but for more logic related errors, how does that even work? Should I tell it what is wrong and keep asking until it's fixed?

Also would you recommend using an IDE like cursor to really help the AI explore my files and understand what is going on? Or just using the web UI is good enough for most cases?

>try to do stuff yourself and ask for input if you get stuck would be my advice
I was reading on other places and some mentioned about telling the AI not to give the code outright and instead give some hints as to what could be happening. Do you think it's a good way to go about it?

But thank you so much for taking the time anon! I appreciate it!
>>
>>108514120
it sounds like you're thinking about relying on it a bit more exclusively than i think you should. llms are one tool in a large toolbox, not your sole source of guidance. don't be afraid to search google, check documentation, read guides, or seek out discussions as well. if you think you're missing something, approach it from multiple angles so you can get a sense of what you're missing. introductory guides are a great starting point in terms of structure, you might want to start there instead of just outright starting with an llm. but often they'll talk about something that goes over your head early on, so you can ask an llm to give more info in places where there are gaps. don't be afraid to bounce back and forth between whatever tools are available to you, including llms.

>Do you think it's a good way to go about it?
yes. one of the oldest teaching methods is the socratic method, basically asking probing questions to get you to think about thinks you might not have considered and come to conclusions on your own. you don't want it to just feed you the answer, understanding how you got there both teaches you the fundamental concepts which are often applicable elsewhere but also just helps you remember things.

Fair enough. Would've been handy to apply an effect to multiple layers simultaneously.

Getting in the top 10% of CS graduates is easy provided you care about CS
>>
>>108491230
Main issue isn't even that recent grads aren't getting hired. That's part of the issue. But with entry-level jobs, it's almost always that HR tends to hire entirely based on nepotism. You're already ruled out from their pool of candidates the moment you don't know anyone. The entire pool is tossed away because the daughter of one of the seniors or management is also graduating. No, they do not care what her resume has, only the salary of the position. There was never a competition. It was always a free pass for some individuals. You thought Ivy Leagues were hard to get into, and were getting gamed by the rich? Think of that for every job, but on steroids.
>>
>>108514052
And what makes this problem even worse, is that, even when miraculously, you do get thru the filter and are getting interviewed, it's only the people they like more who get thru, which is what the behavioral is for. They only hire people like themselves. So you're not getting thru if you're someone who does not act exactly like the rest, or if you're significantly more skilled and accomplished than others (igniting jealousy). Plus, HR highly favors women throughout the entire process, since both women are in HR, and men in management would much rather work with an attractive woman for obvious reasons, so if an attractive woman is also competing for the same position, say goodbye to the role.

>Getting in the top 10% of CS graduates is easy provided you care about CS

Nowadays that implies a PhD and research experience in AI. It doesn't matter how much you care about CS, being the best you can be at math and statistics trumps any passion for the field itself. Also, being good at traditional algorithms/leetcode is becoming less and less valuable as AI takes over.

Her only claim to fame is organizing DebConf23, an event where a Debian developer literally fucking DIED because basic health & safety measures were not followed.

A much more qualified candidate was hospitalized during the nomination window and couldn't apply in time, yet she has refused to reopen nominations.
