I prefer the tau version
Which?
Googling the question. top links is always, always the question being answered by : google it.
Don’t ask a question. Make the title “Hey look at this cool way to do X” and do it wrong, and hope someone corrects you.
Made the mistake of asking for help on a game’s discord (the developers had wiped my save data including premium currency because they migrated to a new account system and I didn’t catch it in time)
Surprised how eager people are to shit on each other even when it’s on behalf of a company that will screw them over in a heartbeat
Arch Wiki: RTFM
That’s why sometimes if i don’t find the right answer i just re-install the whole linux or just ignore the problem
Should check out nixos, every time you update your config you’re effectively rebuilding most of your system from scratch anyway and if you check your config into git you can reinstall without having to re-setup everything
Just use jQuery
jQuery is honestly underrated though. Just about the only JavaScript framework I can tolerate because it’s just abbreviated regular is
That said if I can help it I try to do the bare minimum on the client and have the server deal with the problems in a grown up language anyway

My favorite part is a little after where he says he never said that
Gotta appreciate the irony
That is called the Streisand effect.
That’s not-
Wait a minute. Ha, you almost had me, you sly dog.
Some of the “duplicate” questions that I have seen on Stack Overflow are phrased entirely different than the supposedly “original” one. It’s like they expect me to brute-force their entire fucking search index before publishing a new question. I don’t have that much patience or time.
Unless they’re being rude about it you shouldn’t take that personally, they’re doing exactly that job for you and it’s useful to make easier to find contents for other people
Stackoverflow gets quickly steamrolled by AI.
We’re not 100% there yet, but the writing on the wall is there. Just my opinion, of course.
I’d still chose someone else’s stack overflow question every time over AI. AI is a last resort
That said, I have never asked a question on stack overflow as it’s not exactly an inviting atmosphere
StackOverflow initially had an interesting idea of putting metrics on things, and unfortunately humanity’s penchant for “what gets measured is gamed” was amplified and devolved into a hive of HOA Karens looking for infractions of the rules.
I’ll bet that if you “relaunched” a SO-like system and removed all human-visible “points” or “scores” you could achieve a less toxic environment. The only “ranking” is implicit based on your topical subscriptions.
Then again, you could “relaunch” the “relaunch” and “AlphaGo-ify” a bunch of AI agents to compose the dialogs and threads without any human interaction at all. I guess we’re on our way already to building Culture minds.
Just read the duplicate
that is not the same thing at all
skill issue
