    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 recently switched and the documentation is both extremely necessary (no other distro is even a little similar to setup) and TERRIBLE

        I mean, it’s fine. And if you can’t find something the NixOS subreddit is usually pretty helpful

        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.

          People tend to say this about everything. I read someone’s about Qt Documentation and that is after having learnt to do with Qt in 1 month using solely the Qt Creator’s F1, that I took over 3 months with STL.

    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.
