I find working with AI to help me understand way better.

Using Linux as an example. If I search for “give me the size of each subdirectory in the current directory” the stack overflow answer will be “just type du -h --max-depth=1” so you copy and paste it and, voila!, it’s exactly what you want. Except I have no idea what any of it means.

However, I ask chatgpt, and it will explain that du means disk usage, -h gives a human readable form, and --max-depth=1 will only go down 1 level, without showing all of the subdirectories.

So now I’ve learned something.

Additionally, with coding, it’s a lot like rubber duck debugging for me. Just formulating my question will often lead to an answer, or trying to explain what went wrong with the AI solution helps me get to the proper answer.

And doesn’t insult you, and gives you an answer far more tailored to your issue.

True. But if you scream “capitalism!” Every time something goes wrong, it calls into question how much critical thought actually went into that.

Cutting costs to make a profit is capitalism

And socialism and communism are also dealing with limited resources and thus cutting cost is also something that will come up. It’s not like communism unlocks unlimited resources.

Holy shit, it’s literally in the little blurb that this happened previously. You were likely typing in this question right under the answer.

We’re on Lemmy, every evil in the world is the result of capitalism.

Never let critical thought get in the way of our 2 minutes hate. This is about interpreting it in a way to justify our dislike, rather than whether the current thing actually does justify it.

Step 4 literally says to scrub until all of the brown bits are gone. Look at the picture in step 5, does that look like anything is burnt onto it? I see nothing in that says anything about taste.

Also, wikiHow is a garbage source as anyone can submit anything they want. They don’t have to have any clue what they’re talking about.

Here is cooks illustrated, a well respected cooking magazine that tests everything, talking cleaning.

And yes, they say soap is fine. If mild dish detergent is removing your seasoning, it wasn’t seasoned properly.

I’ve always just used the bead test where you drop a drop of water in a dry pan and if it beads up and rolls around, instead of just sizzles, then the pan is hot enough to add oil (although this also works if it’s too hot, but I have a good sense of how long it takes to get to this temp, so I’m usually testing just before and just after it hits this temp). Then when the oil is shimmering, this is the time to add food.

Seasoning is not about taste. You’re just using a dirty pan if it has stuff burned onto it. Your pan should not be imparting any taste into your food.

While oil is necessary, It’s more about how you preheat it and your technique, rather than how you oil it; no amount of oil is going to save you from over crowding a cold pan.

Please expand because the article is about “protest votes” and the top level comment I responded to is seemingly about how the doctor who wrote it should have earned less money. It seems completely non sequitur.

What does this have to do with anything that is being discussed in the article?

There is a kid on my son’s soccer team (East Coast) who is from Cali. I asked him why his family moved here. Unfased he said some forest fire burned his home down and then when they found a place to live again another forest fire burned it down. I guess is parents were like “fuck this.”

Other than untracking tracked files, I see nothing in this graphic that isn’t easy to do with a gui. That might even be easy to do but it is something I do in the cli. Can I get some examples?

I would also argue that the common/basic stuff is 99% of what I do with git. And for this I can’t fathom why people would think the cli is better. Like logging and diffing is just so much easier when I can just scroll and click as opposed to having to do a log command, scroll, then remember the hashes, and then write the command. This is something instantly available to me in a gui.

Don’t get me wrong, if the cli is better for you more power to you. We moved from p4 to git and I did this almost exclusively in the cli so I could use scripts more easily. And sometimes I watch beginners use the gui and I have to bite my tongue because I know it would be faster in the cli.

But, especially for a beginner, i strongly recommend a gui.

I guess to each their own because having to hang a cheat sheet on my wall with got commands seems like the exact opposite of good aesthetics to me.

Why not just use a gui? I don’t need something hanging on my wall because it’s all just easy clicking around. And when I do want to use the cli, it’s very easy to bring up.

Dems weren’t erasing their existence.

There are legit criticisms of their support of Israel. . .but accusing dems of “erasing the existence of Muslims” is so detached from reality I’m not even sure how one would even begin to get one believing that to join the rest of us in the real world.

You were able to leave your job for a month, come back and continue like nothing happened, then were able to resign a month after that…and you are saying you weren’t treated like a human?

You’ll have to explain what you think I don’t understand and how you came to that conclusion.
