  • I have shared that frustration, trying to find that balance.

    I try to get some basic wisdom through to them to help prevent something horrible happening later, but I don't want to cause them pain now, either.

    I have taken to asking them to take my hand in theirs, when I think they aren't listening.

    The younger kid appreciates the connection. The older kid practices their active listening skills to make me leave them alone sooner.

  • Damn. I love this community. Lemmy goes hard.

    "My kid can read now."

    "It's never too early to teach them regular expressions."

    Edit: To be clear, I agree. It's just great to be among like minded folks, here.

  • You can make an image of the / drive so it's easier to restore if they break the system.

    That's good advice. I always meant to do that with computers my kids access.

    Although I haven't ever had my kids break a Linux Mint install. I set them up as non-sudo users and that was enough.

    Of course, they grew older and have sudo now, so I should actually think about taking a drive image, now.

  • Teach them to launch Vim, and they can spend their remaining computer use time using Vim.

    Unless they figure out how to exit vim, then please have them come teach me how.

    Sorry. I will see myself out.

  • You could do what my dad did and accidently delete some of the system files, leaving it for your kid to fix.

    Now I assume this thread is full of folks trying to figure out if we found our siblings Lemmy account...

  • Oh, nice.

    I'm always looking for another ChangeLog tool.

    That said, I never leave my ChamgeLogs up to automation.

    My git logs are open to my users for full details, but my ChangeLogs are how I communicate which changes my users probably need to be aware of.

    So far, this hasn't yielded well to automation. But my team is still considering standardizing our commit log messages enough to allow it someday.

  • If a bit too bold in the presence of his Imzadi.

    I figure Riker stopped holding things of that nature back in front of Troi, after he realized that between her empathy and knowing him well, he wasn't fooling her, anyway.
