    That was extremely rude! In the United States as a coworker you would have gotten in serious trouble for this comment.

    I disagree in my culture nothing I said was out of line or even odd. It would be like me getting upset at you for expressing things you find odd in your culture.

    Nope just pointing out cultural differences. In the United States saying "Fag" in public would likely get you killed. In fact, I felt uncomfortable writing it.

    This whole thing has been on topic. It's about AI how did you expect it was going to go?

    You are adding geography, a parameter that has no influence in the phenomenon. AI would have probably not done it. Perhaps the reason is that you expend too much time at work with top engineers and do not have contact with normal people.

    It is normal human behavior. Stupidity is normal. Psychologically it is projection. If these people feel stupid because they see some people being more intelligent than them, then they do not acknowledge the cause of this bad feeling in them, in...

    When you create a jail with poudriere, it copies the host's /etc/resolv.conf. Looks like you may have created those jails when your host's /etc/resolv.conf was a bit dodgy. You can set an alternative file it should copy to the jails (at creation)...

    It must be a European thing, you don't really see that very often in the United States, we would view someone with that reaction as possible having a mental illness.

    I have very frequently the experience that some people get offended when they meet someone more intelligent than them. I can imagine that people acting that way, and so stupid to also personalize AI, do get upset.

    So how do I know they can write good documentation? Because the ones who do now have a job. Good docs aren’t harder than coding, we only tell you that to make you feel special, so you keep doing the job we don't want to do.

    Excuse me that I am impolite, but is this answer perhaps mere comforting? Of course, and I know a little of troff, but only a little. To do the work, it would take a lot of time, also for redacting the text, and hence I would not do it. I said...

    tembun replied to the thread Shell keybindings.
    It should work in FreeBSD shells/bash as well as in any Linux distro, because keybindings syntax and functionality are determined by the library that is used to deal with user input. shells/bash uses readline, no matter the OS. But for instance...

    I presume -x means remove all current bindings for the key sequence. You probably want to use -r on FreeBSD. You can find the documentation in editrc as directed from sh. The manpages for shell builtins are don't actually document their syntax...

    Without looking at link: `roff` isn't guaranteed to render properly on a BSD OS because BSD uses the `mandoc` program (a parser) to render `mdoc` macros. All the AI generated manages I've seen are full of mistakes so I would be careful. AI may be...
