Anon, you will IMMEDIATELY stop using LLMs. Retvrn to Stack Overflow. Retvrn to tradition.(via "Hacker" "News": https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46482345)
there are just no more interesting questions to ask anymore, well besides what's a use case for AI that's profitable
Maybe you didn't notice but they just refused to allow new questions to stay up after like 2019 or so, this has nothing to do with AI, you also literally couldn't ask questions unless you had some stupid high reputation rank and you could only get this if you get updoots on comments so the actual ability of non-dead accounts to ask questions went to zero.
>>107756350The coding bubble popped.
>>107756350there's no need for it now that you can get help from a being that has some empathy.i found plenty of solutions on SO but I would have never dared to ask a question.
>>107756405I've never posted a question on SO but I did provide a few answers. Never had any trouble myself, but it was disheartening to see Wikipedia-y elitism and dogmatism in comments. It's never been anywhere near as bad as Wikipedia, of course, but plenty of regulars were high pricks regardless.
>>107756350Marked as duplicate to "[Solved] How do I scratch my ass?" and closing your thread to further replies.
>>107756350I can immediately find an answer to my sometimes esoteric queries without having to deal with SO smartasses and multiple bad pieces of advice. If I feel the answer can be improved I just prompt further, it's that easy.LLMs suck for most things but making googling shit faster is what they're MADE for.
>>107756350Weird how nobody wants to ask questions to people who neither understand your question, the topic at hand or their own answer, yet answer anyway and are real dicks about it.Truly a mystery.
Um girls, where will AI get the answers to new questions if stack overflow dies?
jannies killing sites. user generated content. all jannies do is remove content and users. the exact opposite of what you want.
>>107756350>selfless nerds give all their hard earned information and knowledge for free to some 3rd party site (StackOverflow)>some kikes then pay some other nerds to replace them>they fork all the data off StackOverflow and crammed it into a bot you can query with English human sounding text >it completely kills StackOverflow and all junior programmer positions LOL
i had a useful, straightforward non-dupe question and it was closed because it went over some mod's headthe first and last time i posted anything there
>>107756350>REEEEEEEEEEEEEEE, your question is "opinion based".>the "community" of autistic bullies have decreed that Stack Overflow is only for regurgitating facts that can be found in the documentation.>but don't ask for links to the documentation. off-site resources are also off topic.
I think I tried joining there in 2010. The faggotry i was exposed to put me off coding completely.
>>107756350Why yes, I'd rather use sources where answers aren't written by people who act like cuntsThe fall of StackOverflow was complete deserved and long overdue.
>>107756350lol, and everyone says llms aren't useful for programming questions
>>107756405It's pretty funny to look up legendary programmers stackoverflow accounts. They're usually asking a really good question and then you get like 20 nobodies calling them a retard for asking that question.
>>107756559>the exact opposite of what you want.wrong, jannies should be removing things, the problem is they're removing the wrong thingsall user generated content sites have the same problem 4chan does and it's persisted from the age of forums and probably bbs; moderation over time shifts from protecting and enabling good content to protecting the sensibilities of the moderation teammoderating is a critical part of a good website, that's why 4chan gets worse every year against all odds
Never>ask question>wait two hours>some fucking retard drops a retarded comment>start arguing with the retard to help him understand what the question is about>SO janny comes in>umm akshually we already had the same question in 2009 so I'm gonna close yoursPlaces like that are only going to be for when AI can't help and that's a good thing
>>107756350stack overflow was the first site i regularly visited that popped up the system level popup asking me to sign in with my gmail on every page of the site i loaded. i learned how to block it, but being so fucking annoying left a lasting impression. i'm fine with that site dying.
>>107757268Everyone says that LLMs aren't very useful for nontrivial programming. Obviously you can let Claude loose at making a swastika clock, but it'll take a lot of handholding to get it to push frontier problems. I'd love to see an AI C++ compiler, database engine or action game state synchronizer.
>>107757268>lol, and everyone says llms aren't useful for programming questionsProofs?
It's easy to attribute this to LLMs given the timing and it's not like they helped but everyone who actually tried to use the site knows the problem is the moderation, it's been a mess since 2016.
>>107761597certainly why I stopped posting on it. A moderator solved a petty spat by deleting all of my comments and leaving the other guy's up. OK, bye.
>>107756548Code repos, bug trackers, docs, ...
Stack overflow was founded by a homosexual jew that literally enjoys penis in his butthole. Much like openAI.
>>107760746https://github.com/jgarzik/vibe99-oldhttps://github.com/stoolap/stoolap
>>107756350SO has the same kind of toxic moderators and users as in reddit that care more about the thrill of exercising their power than actually moderating the site in a way that's beneficial way to users.
Every google result for this gay ass site returns a locked question. They should have auto-banned any mod that locked a question years ago but it's too late now. It's pretty funny to see the litany of copes on "hacker" "news" denying the problem was bad moderation. They're so fucking obnoxious. Real cunts.
>ask question>uhm, SWEATY, it was already answered>check old thread>it's from 2011So many things change in just a couple of years in programming. A bunch of old answers are literally outdated.
>>107756350So the decline started in 2014? What caused it?
>>107765051The locked questions are often 10+ years old. The moderators are all non-programmers that have no clue that information can become outdated.
