> There is a (fairly) good book series where it turns out we are living in the matrix and someone finds a config file and effectively becomes a Wizard, and of course problems ensue with details (like flying by adjusting one’s position one feet up every second is just vibrating a lot)
This is very interesting. Which book series is this?
Found it (with the help of AI, naturally). Looks like "Wizard 2.0" by Scott Meyer.

as others mentioned, it sounds like "Off to Be the Wizard". Unfortunately I wouldn't call it a great series. It starts off strong but drags. IIRC I got through half of the second book before stopping.
Sounds like "Off to be the Wizard". The series is called "Magic 2.0"
