I’ll make it easy for those of you who have a problem with it. Ask your LLMs of choice what idk… grep is licensed under. And because we all know you won’t read it, ask for a summary of that license. You might miss the important bits so tell it you want to know about the 4 fundamental freedoms. Or you could read any of it yourself, so you understand the reason for the work of your forebearers

Feed it the man page… I don’t even. Fuck. Like. Read a license for anything which has a man page and you’d realize how incredibly selfish that is.
Aren’t “the boring gaps” in fact “the important parts”?
Not working efficiently enough is the key. RTFM is a skill and it takes patience and practice. Investing that time is worth it as it is ultimately the fastest way. And you learn peripheral information along the way. If getting the job done now, then do what works for you.
I would however warn against watching video. Watching videos is the slowest way to learn something. Think about how often you watch at 4x only to jump around and miss what you are looking for. Compare that to using a wiki or an old fashion book. Skimming and jumping around is much easier. But once again, do what works for you.

Linux@lemmy.ml•I Spoke To The Developer Of The Systemd Birth Date PR - YouTube
11·29 days agoDeath threats are far beyond unacceptable, but it’s naive to think this policy is without consequence. It can take as few as 3 non-personal pieces of information (examples of personal: name, phone number, street address, SSN) to uniquely identify someone. Say the kind of car you drive, your employer, and your hair color. Together those are form a strong identifier, but now add age BY DEFAULT. Even a weak set becomes unique.
That is incredibly consequential. You could be implicated in a crime you didn’t commit, protesting becomes impossible, and everything you do or say will ALWAYS follow you. The balance between citizen and government becomes irrevesibly skewed. Just because your computer will volunteer your age.
This issue should be the issue we care about the most.

Linux@lemmy.ml•FOSS video editing with as little AI as possible, but matching the look of AI produced viral video?
1·6 months agoNot at all, but there is a difference between creating a finished product and creating a finished product a particular way. If you make a suggestion for how I do something, and it isn’t stipulated to be part of the finished product, then I can do it however I want. If however part of the contract is I do it your way, then that matters. Hope that clarifies things

1·6 months agoHave you ever had a client who wanted something done but had an asinine suggestion for how to do it? Do you do it their way or do you focus on getting the job done? Unless it’s a stipulation, you do it the way that gets the job done.
