IF there is documentation, IF it is even covered in documentation, IF documentation is using the sameish keywords, IF documentation is accurate and IF documentation is up to date.
I see this is not your first rodeo!
AKA not nix/nixos.
I mean, it’s fine. And if you can’t find something the NixOS subreddit is usually pretty helpful
what’s wrong with nixos?
I recently switched and the documentation is both extremely necessary (no other distro is even a little similar to setup) and TERRIBLE
I’ll be honest. I just followed a video tutorial
Looking at you, Texas Instruments
Bro what? TI has like… the best docs. What are you talking about? They have the Microsoft C# docs of the semiconductor world. Clear examples, every little detail, well organized. Darn near perfect example of what to do
Not really. I haven’t worked with a TI mcu for a while so I can’t talk about their mcu docs, but their sections describing data exchanges between the IC and your mcu usually has a lot of ambiguity that needs to be clarified through trial and error.

30min of fighting with an LLM can save you 10s of boilerplate
Hey, 8 hours is a whole day well paid and if I fix it in 5 min I don’t wanna start allocating virtual memory for the next problem
How about 8 hours troubleshooting while trying to find the right documentation.
Jokes on you, using AI I got that time down to 4 hours trying to convince it to create working code, and 3 hours of debugging.
Never ask it to do regex. Holy fuck, thank God I was just doing it for funsies as a test of local LLMs. I got it to go into an infinite loop trying to figure out what I asked.
I don’t blame the LLM, regex is a write-only language.
