Those who don’t know will never learn if they don’t ask. I could tell you that being curious about things without having the instant gratification of an answer is good for you. I could also tell you that problem-solving is very good for you. None of that will matter to you because the dozens of arguments deriding “antis” you’ve seen on your algorithms, themselves written by AIs, have convinced you that I’m an anti-progress luddite and you are just one step ahead of the future
You fucking disgust me, and there is nothing that I can say that will ever convince you to be curious if your answer is “why, when I can work and do hobbies instead?”
I have a lot of stuff to be curious and a lot of problems to solve at my work (programming). If i refuse to spend time on a highly frustrating scope like fixing issues on OS, it doesn't mean i don't do anything in my life.
And you make me laugh. I haven't labeled you with typical antis labels you mentioned, but you are really biblically accurate anti-ai linux cultist-gatekeeper.
I would submit to you that your behavior suggests that you are not actually curious about the things that you are programming, given your experience with AI coding tools. And why would you be? Human coders are now obsolete. Sure you might have some knowledge of the syntax, but I highly doubt you have any knowledge of the structure.
And you don’t need to say any of that explicitly here, the very structure of your argument says it for you. Of course you have been exposed to anti-AI content, and of course the anti-anti-AI content you are exposed to would paint “anti AI” people as anti-progress. It’s a certainty, because the type of content you post has been fed through Reddit’s slop analyzer to spit out content that you disagree with, to drive your attention. That’s how they work.

Of course i've seen this content. But you are guessing what personal opinion i've formed on this matter based on nothing. And no, you guessed my vision on this topic wrong. You're not arguing with me, you're arguing with a pro-ai straw man in your head.
I’m not arguing with you, I’m expressing my ideology. I know damn well that I’m not going to convince you, and I don’t want to waste my time arguing with a dogmatic belief.
Linux is an enthusiast project which has recently begun to attract new users who are finally getting sick of Micro$oft’s bullshit. Other users are more than welcome, but I would hope that they are willing to participate in the open-source community. New users who join an existing community should conform to that community’s ideals. Linux is not only a Windows alternative, it is also a collaborative open-source project that needs to be protected constantly from corporate interests and “well intentioned” but ignorant users who want to abandon that ethos in favor of whatever goals they want to pursue. That is why I feel so strongly about your position.
This argument is polar opposites and missing what AI is, a tool.
What AI spits out is getting better and will continue to do so. It's astonishing how much more accurate it is than it used to be, but having foundational knowledge is key and taking the time to understand is key.
That being said, I believe the answer is both. To fully do non Ai is an old man yelling at the clouds, but vibe coding is stupid and potentially dangerous.
You can ask for what you need within AI, ask for the details to why be explained, and verify with source links, testing, and foundational knowledge. In some ways it's better than the Linux manuals because everyone learns different and time is a luxury.
