Reminds me of my first day of a computer programming class. My teacher told us to write down instructions on how to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Then he would follow the instructions.
βPut the peanut butter inside two slices of bread.β Heβd grab the jar of peanut butter and put the whole jar inside two slices of bread
βGrab a knife and scoop out the peanut butter.β Heβd start stabbing the lid.
Beautiful analogy of what itβs like to deal with technology
that's good, but real computer programming is more like
Error: file "PeanutButter.h" not found
Exit status code 1
That's because you're a noob and forgot to add this at the end:
If work == false:
fix(yourself)
What language is this capital I If acceptable and how do I purge it from my brain.
English and you purge it by invading Britain and forcing them to speak a cool language like Italian or Spanish
Pssst if the company's realise it's that easy then they wont need anyone to fix it
"Yes. Of course I have one exit status code. How do I look at it?"
I remember seeing a video where somebody did that with their kids! https://youtu.be/cDA3_5982h8
I thought it was hilarious. But you're totally right, in the comments everyone's talking about how they're programming class had that same thing :)

Modern operating systems question you and ask you to input βno-preserve-root, unfortunately
Problem is:
I have no idea what I asked it to do!
For example I was creating systemd services and stuff because it is actually fun in comparison to init.d back in the days. Now I usually just copy paste tutorials and adjust it until my stuff works.
But my boot time somehow got longer O didn't noticed it at first, but when I finally digged to the problem it seems that for timed Services you don't want the Service to be installed(or even able to be instlled) and only enable the timer.
No tutorial told me that.
To be fair I didn't read the documentation on systemd. But who does?

Pls?

"I can actually control and issue commands by myself instead of relying on shady installers and other type of automated-related stuff?"
"Whoooooa, whoa now buddy.... that is too much."
I got a new pc so I started messing around with linux on the old machine after 10 years or so from last using linux. The pc has an i7 from 2009 16g ram and gtx1060 and a ssd for os. Running popos. Going in and playing some steam games natively made me very happy with experience on that machine.
Havenβt you ever done exactly what a client asked and they hated it?
I have been tinkering with NixOS and my god is that true.
Does exactly what you want it to do*
*Until you encounter a broken or buggy package, then you have to fix it lol
"Yes, do as i say!"
