Now that the dust has settled, was RTFM (Reading the Effing Manual) a good thing? Did it ever help you out? LLMs have rendered RTFM moot and there's a new generation of "programmers" who won't RTFM, ever. Do you think they'll be worse programmers?

Reading the manual is still required if you want to understand the code your LLM generated.
>>
>>107684288
You still have to read the fucking manual if you want to properly understand something, assuming the fucking manual is good instead of being just code in English like the python docs or cpp reference.
For example the .NET docs will beat an LLM at explaining .NET concepts but I wouldn’t even think about reading the python docs, just ask Claude.

RTFM came from a time where software was generally quite well documented anyway. It stopped being relevant about a decade ago when code became features first docs optional.

Windows has a layered storage driver stack. At the end of the day, pretty much everything goes through the SCSI driver at some point - the miniport driver right at the bottom either passes through, or translates, those commands to what the hardware interface expects.
>2
It's not any sort of revolution: command sets for pretty much all interface these days are heavily inspired by SCSI, hence why pushing I/O through the SCSI layer has always worked so well. It does lower latency however, hence why random I/O is showing the best performance improvements under this "new driver".

A lot of ARM platforms use UEFI now. UEFI is the main reason one would want to stop using x86. Because the ISA itself is fine, best there is actually. So now you have ARM problems and you're keeping the UEFI problems.

>>107682024
Might as well just get a dock for the usb-c port, since that's the actual solution to the problem that framework is pretending to solve.

Any version of Windows since 1995 has been more polished, production-ready and user-friendly than any Linux distro ever made. That's obvious to anybody who has installed both of them on the same machine.

Are Linux users just lying about their distros being a better experience than a Windows installation?

why are so many programming "help" groups like this? like, somebody will specifically opt into helping people, and then get frustrated when they dont do exactly what they expect. it constantly feels like im testing everyone's patience whenever i ask for help and its even harder trying to just learn everything myself, especially considering all the weird semantic differences in both the language itself and guides.

like i can imagine a full script in my head but i wouldnt know how to translate it into the language im currently using. and on the offchance that i *do* get the help needed, usually its just "oh just use the blah function", so its not like i just Dont Know How To Code or anything i just dont know the shit thats specific to the engine, and its not like i can just look it up in a glossary or something because the words can be totally different from language to language, like how "object" in one language can be "entity" in another, and object in *that* language refers to an object in an array or something, so theres just a huge language gap that i cant really cross without the help of others, which sucks because working with others sucks
