You learn so much more doing it yourself instead of having AI write code for you. When I first learned how to admin an Apache server I had 0 understanding how it worked, but with some effort I'm now confident enough to do a simple setup on my own. I did follow along with tutorials and examples configs, but I made sure I knew what each part did at least on a high level. The reason I'm confident in this is that I know how to read the docs and how to troubleshoot issues when they happen.

When you let AI do all the work you don't learn the inner workings of a system and are only hurting yourself. If you want to use AI use it for writing some boiler plate you've already written hundreds of times or taking simple functions and converting them to another language. I use AI for basic and repetitive tasks, which is something it's great at. I don't use it for making large design decisions since that will (not "if", but "will") bite me in the ass later on when something breaks. Examples of good uses of AI (in my opinion): generating a list of US states in JavaScript, take a function that converts a strijg to a date object and try to translate it to another language, use it as a tool to bounce some high level ideas off of when you're at a development block.

In that same vein I've seen pibling for aunt/uncle.

Wait the truck hobbles itself if a non-critical part isn't working?

It's more the TV won't be at eye level so you'll naturally hunch your back which tends to be poor sitting posture.

Am I actually agreeing with MTG on something?

Can I ask what quirks/off behavior you see (genuinely asking)?

According to this source https://www.etymonline.com/word/daylight#798. It seems to refer to an old figuratove usage of the term daylight to indicate a clear space between two objects. That makes sense applied to the methods use in "daylighting" intersections since it's meant to create a visible gap for better visibility.

Welcome to Windows 11 it's gotten real bad. Even though I would rather just stick with what works Windows 11 has made it so Windows is no longer "what works" in my opinion. If this tech stuff is too much maybe look at a Steam Deck? A lot of my friends have one and they run great. It does run on Linux but everything should be setup for you. Edit: nevermind the steam deck I forgot you had already ordered a laptop

The hard drive was just trying to turn itself into a much trendier vinyl record.

I've got a manual pump that fits nicely under my top bar. I would rather have something that can pump air without a consumable like a cartridge. Not too sure about the quality since I only tested it once, and thankfully I haven't had a need for it.
