Honestly for most things, the actual documentation is the best resource. I needed to learn to stop looking for solutions to my issue on various fora (like SO) and just read the primary documentation from the vendor. Have a look at dev.mysql.com or mariadb.com/docs/server
- apple4ever 2mo agoI do agree, and generally that's what I do. Because then I actually learn instead of fire and forget. In that example specifically, it was a bit of "let me see how this works and how good it is" too.
- Anamon 2mo agoOne of the problems with this is that documentation is increasingly also written with LLMs by the vendors, and now is often so vague and riddled with errors to be basically unusable, if not counterproductive by sending you the wrong way. Microsoft has a great racket going on there. Vibecode shitty, unreliable services, offer wrong information in the slop documentation, then charge an arm and a leg for premium support which, in many cases, will just be an employee regurgitating more wrong AI slop information to you.
