Noop, you have to install the man-db package

Is this supposed to be a joke or have we truly gotten to the point where ... coding in a terminal via like hyprland or w/e, without relying on an what is basically an annoying tutorial character from a video game that acts as an assistant...
This is psycopathy?
Having actual competence in one's field?
Oh god we're all doomed, they'll soon be alternating between worshipping us demigods, or burning us at the stake.
EDIT:
Welp, I'm sure thats a good sign, lol.
Pretty sure it's gonna be the stake

I had an internship 15 years ago where I was forced to write C++ with no internet access. I had to use a programming manual and man pages.
25 years ago I was writing code in a paper notebook, sometimes while riding the bus. The only computer access was at college and it was easier to work through the code on paper and then quickly transcribe it once I got on campus.
Yeah, things are a bit more complicated now, but in other ways they are sooooo much easier. The fact that people are using chatGPT to 'program' is just crazy from my perspective.

I can still do this provided that the language is Perl. But the few cases when I actually have to do so are rare, and never in public.
Well yeah, Perl is write-only. Larry Wall asked the monkey's paw for a language that works on the first try. What's onscreen are your raw brain patterns.
Thank god it runs like crap. Optimized C isn't pretty, but any project that compiles proves someone looked at it more than once.

Why not both? Probably worshipped at the stake.

Wasn't that one of the Incan gods?
I think it is some kind of winged puma with the bosom of a woman.

But how do you remember the syntax???

I'm also in this picture and I love it!

If you're using arch, you shouldn't need man pages. Because you use arch, BTW.

IKR, WTF reads manpages. probably boils rabbits in their spare time.

Your English is fine. The same words often evoke different mental images from one person to another. Sometimes I have trouble distinguishing when to embrace literal meanings and when to go with the general gist of words. Thanks for addressing my comment, a gentle reminder for me.
Thank you 🫡

Is psychopatl an Aztec insult I don't know about?

I understood your point fine. I indeed started out with first Commodore BASIC and then into 6502, all using the manuals because there wasn't much else of a source back then.
Thank you, kindly. I've heard that manuals where fun to use (sarcasm). Unfortunately, I am old enough to remember those days, but wasn't fortunate enough to own or even be able to witness such gems in real life.

It cut off the h.

hyprland
what?
I think he means HyperTerminal. It was the predecessor to Putty basically for serial connections.

I'm literally designing some code now and realized that I used DuckDuckGo to find man pages for system calls... from my Arch laptop.

hyprland
what?
Wayland based tiling compositor
