Remember when Internet Explorer/Edge was only used to download Chrome. Well, ironically these days I only use Chrome to make video calls.

Saw it today in Germany. Cancelled my sub. Ads is a line in the sand that won’t be crossed no matter what.

ChatGPT, explain it to em like I’m a lobotomized 2 year old.

I mean, we’re talking curl here, I don’t think a lot of suffering of consequences is happening. And man pages are often also not a great resource, throw everything at you, often don’t contain examples. If I’m building an app that integrates curl or libcurl, oh yes I’m reading the doc. If I just need curl to do something quickly, the LLM output is perfectly fine.

I recently watched the 3.5-hour workshop Mastering the curl command line by Daniel Stenberg, the author of curl

I commend the author for watching and subsequently summarizing this into a blog article, but in the age of LLMs like ChatGPT I cannot be arsed anymore to memorize any of the arcane command line arguments of curl, ffmpeg and the like.
