My friend. I am a professional programmer. I get paid to read code. I even enjoy debugging code, no matter who wrote it.

I will not slog through pages of AI slop that you can't explain or understand.

I say this not to put you down. If you want to go down this road, AI can bootstrap you. It can legitimate help you learn and grow if you are willing to engage and think and understand. But you simply can't dump a wall of script in a random sub, claim complete ignorance, and expect "the community" to swoop in and save you.

Break down your problem. Ask specific, targeted questions. Use AI? Sure. But understand what it writes, or you'll end up... Well, exactly where you are.

Ask again once you have a question. Good luck.

It added that Microsoft “is not in the business of facilitating the mass surveillance of civilians.”

Isn't that the whole point of Windows 11? Mass surveillance of your userbase? 🤔

Fair assessment. But that doesn't mean we should dismiss it when it comes to light. Shout about it, don't dismiss it.
