One of my uni lecturers does the whole “You are out of a job” thing. He’s a smart guy but he’s barley written a line of code in his life. This comes up frequently and everytime I ask him “Get CHATGPT to write fizz buzz in X86 ASM.” Without fail it will crash when trying to build everytime. This technology is very advanced but I find people get it to the the simplest tasks and then expect it to solve the most complex ones.
I wanted to do Gentoo but compile times didn’t count towards hours. And you can’t really get a lot of words from “I waited 8 hours for Firefox to build.”
Last time I checked there’s a difference between enjoying a TV show and having certain fantasies about characters from that show.
It’s not Arch itself that’s the skill. It’s how it’s configured and used for specific purposes that counts to the marks.
We have a word limit and the assignment I’m currently doing assumed you can get a work placement. Which I can’t because no local companies are taking this year (The place I love has maybe 6 tech companies if you are generous). So I’m having to find other ways to display "A knowledge of best practices for tech in a workplace.
I need to pad word count so I needed things to talk about relating to the setup.
When they say “Own it now” they mean own it through Amazon Prime. I don’t like it either but legally that is fine.
Yea but Arch has all of that already. I can’t write about Portage outside of “It builds for your cpu. Which is great but everything is built for am64 anyways so it isn’t worth the wait time” which I did. Sure you could write about use flags but it’s university work and I atleast value some of my free time.
