    Actually think through the design of your program. Have an architectural plan in place. Have the behaviours and interactions planned out in advance. Write the code patterns as examples yourself.

    Consult the AI as a pair programmer after you feed the hard work you did to cover the gaps in your knowledge. VERIFY THE FUCKING SHIT IT SAYS IN THE ACTUAL FUCKING DOCUMENTATION OF THE CODE YOU ARE RUNNING. You should not put random code you find online into your terminal, because that’s how you get rm -r /ed in the face. Same thing here. The AI is no different. It’s not magic, if you don’t know what the fuck you are doing, the AI snippets aren’t going to make you know how to do it, UNLESS you corroborate the information.

    Also, why clone wholesale instead of just forking or joining the actual project? If you hate the communists of lemmy.ml, piefed also exists, and if you’re a nazi, there’s a similar right wing project that spun off back when people were mad at the asian woman in charge of reddit.

    I mean, that’s how language acquisition works. You learn the rough mechanics of the language to get a base level comprehension, then you immerse yourself culturally and amplify your vocabulary and capabilities through exposure and use.

    You can do one of three, for different levels of ease and performance:

    1. Install boxes/gnome-boxes, install the windows os on a virtual machine. Just press the plus to choose an iso file and go.
    2. If you have an extra hard drive, you can install windows on that hard drive, and have to set up grub to recognise it.
    3. Change the partition size of your hd using a live cd/usb version of Linux (you can’t change partition size on partitions that are in use) , make a new partition and install windows on that partition. Add this new OS to grub.

    You will need to do further research on some of the stuff I said, but I gave you the correct things to look up.

    They go down in order of difficulty. Boxes will be less efficient but easiest. The other two have the same efficiency, but the second is a bit more challenging
