From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

For aiding programming it beats stackoverflow (thank goldness I dislike SO ...)
But be prepared for it to lie, make stuff up, loose context etc. AI works best if you show it the way. Hold its hand and lead it to where it should go.
Otherwise it'll cry in the corner talking to itself.
Also it cannot create real new data, only glue old datasets together with pva
