Advanced Programming in the #UNIX Environment
The objective of this class is to learn and understand the interfaces, libraries and concepts we cover as well as to actually write code. This requires struggling with code, to work your way through your problems rather than copy together AI generated snippets and pasting errors into a prompt.
Below are my updated slides on the use of AI in this class, and this is our policy:

Advanced Programming in the #UNIX Environment In this class, we use #NetBSD as our reference platform. In addition to our shared shell server, here are some ways you can install NetBSD: - put it on e.g., your laptop: https://netbsd.org/docs/guide/en/chap-exinst.html - use VirtualBox: https://stevens.netmeister.org/631/virtualbox/ - use UTM: https://stevens.netmeister.org/631/utm/ (Video instructions: https://youtu.be/hCqfmuG5Acc ) - use or create an AWS image: https://stevens.netmeister.org/615/netbsd-amis.html - create your own NetBSD #Linode: https://www.netmeister.org/blog/netbsd-on-linode.html
