I feel like there is no inbetween for tutorials. They ethier think you have only discovered computers and the internet today or that you know every programing language and have a CS PhD.
Sometimes both in the same article!
They'll start by explaining what the internet is before descending into a dense conversation about how to use eBPF to do packet filtering and observability - just who is the audience that needs both halves of this?
Here‘s the kicker: some folks don't even question how cars work, how the lights work, how their microwave works, yet all ot them have tutorials.
Now ask Annie what she thinks I should wear, and watch how those neurons fire up.
I’m aware
it's satire.But this a matter of selective bias. Like, who actually reads the tutorials on how to wash your clothes, and sunglasses ftm.
Are you seriously complaining about women?
Click the spoiler.
That only made it worse. I’ll add misogynist to your already long tag of bad stuff.
? Are you now DigVicŋ me right now, or are you really incapable of reading satire?
🤞your not “White Awakening”.
I don’t know what you’re talking about, and that link is explains nothing.
Based on your post history, everything you say is how you feel and nothing you say is satire. The tag stays.
What part of selective biasing information are you projecting on me, that washing clothes tutorials is considered “about women”? Or that of fashion?
Goodnight—or, afternoon I guess it is for you.
Afternoon. But thanks for the label, ig?
How’s the fash plankton in Michigan going?
I’ve never been to Michigan, so I don’t get the reference. 🤷♂️😴
Just some flamer trying to sidetrack their liberal “praxis.”
Read recently too that
.worldworks with the IDF.gn, labelista.
I think you might be mentally ill.
And what qualifications do you have to assess that from me in the internet?
I was a licensed social worker for almost a decade. And while that didn’t give me the ability to diagnose, I can (could) certainly make an assessment that your behavior online is consistent with antisocial traits—or antisocial personality disorder if you need a label.
What kind of social work, and why ASPD, out of all the neurotypical behaviour I exhibit, while attempting to empathize tf that has to do with tutorializing anything?
Not much of your behavior is neurotypical. I think going through your post history would show you. However, if you see nothing questionable—maybe a slice of narcissistic pd is on the table as well.
Why aren’t you answering which social work did you practice?
And why are you labeling me without proof?
My proof is for you to look at your behavior. Also, an assessment wouldn’t require you to accept the results.
Mobile crisis intervention. The person who shows up to decide if you are a danger to yourself or others and whether you get to spend 24 hours in observation.
What behavior?
So quick assessments to save lives, instead of long hard ones like that of a licensed neurologist in the internet trying to empathize how this relates to tutorial writing 101. Riddle me this, did you also write tutorials for common folks on how to do your job?
