Derick Rethans<p>📼 I've made a new video, demoing a new feature coming up in Xdebug 3.5: Skipping lines, files, and directories while debugging: <a href="https://youtu.be/hYmCjrBwNNg" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">youtu.be/hYmCjrBwNNg</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://phpc.social/tags/php" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>php</span></a> <a href="https://phpc.social/tags/xdebug" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>xdebug</span></a> <a href="https://phpc.social/tags/debugging" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>debugging</span></a></p>
ari<p>something is eating my RAM and it's pretty stealthy. <br>My used memory is about double of what it should be according to process usage. This is with <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>linux</span></a> 6.16, gnome, browser and mailer running. </p><p>If I start a VM with 16 GB allocation, it runs into <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/OOM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OOM</span></a> pretty quickly. If I start said VM with 12 GB, it also OOMs, just slower.

Raphael Wimmer<p>So, my new standard procedure when helping students will probably be:</p><p>- always explicitly ask them whether any code or assumptions are based on LLM chats<br>- ask them to explain concrete details and show me the datasheets and API documentation they referred to<br>- if it turns out they have built a complex system but no clue how it works: politely refuse to spend any more time and ask them to come back when they can answer certain questions themselves.</p><p><a href="https://hci.social/tags/ChatGPT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ChatGPT</span></a> <a href="https://hci.social/tags/learning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>learning</span></a> <a href="https://hci.social/tags/debugging" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>debugging</span></a></p>
