This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Also: assuming you know what the easy bits are before you actually have experience doing them is a recipe to end up training incorrectly.

I use plenty of tools to assist my programming work. But I learn what I'm doing and why first. Then once I have that experience if there's a piece of code I find myself having to use frequently or having to look up frequently, I make myself a template (vscode's snippet features are fucking amazing when you build your own snips well, btw).
