My brother in Christ that's why you ask questions on stack overflow

[-] [email protected] 24 points 1 year ago

Just so they can close my question I’ve spent an hour writing as a duplicate of an unrelated question?

Or worse: "Nevermind, I got it working"

[-] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

Or

When your issue is the same as the other person's but then the way produced it is completely different.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

at least that way u can compare simiarities and try to find the cause

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Or even worse: 1 result, the source code on github where the error message is thrown

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I had one of those recently with MicroPython. Turns out I am the only person to ever run out of memory on an ESP8266.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

bc ur running python

And then ChatGPT gives you some nonsense that doesn't actually work.

[-] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago

did you ever get a a useful answer from ChatGPT? I never did.

[-] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago

If you ask chatGPT a question which is in any way niche, it will catastrophically fuck up the answer or give you the "As an AI language model" scold

[-] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

chatgpt is utterly horrible at Minecraft commands, it just throws out pseudocode lol

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

My experience too. The few times I've been stuck and decided to try chatgpt, it's been completely unhelpful, at best suggesting basic things that I checked within the first 5 minutes of troubleshooting.

That was the best case. Worst case it'd sprout some plausible looking nonsense that took time to check and dismiss.

yes just need good prompts

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

It takes more time to engineer prompts than to solve the actual problem.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Only for well known stuff. If I can't find anything useful on the Internet, ChatGPT will start talking bullshit. Sometimes hard to catch but most of the time there's a reason why I still don't understand: it was utter BS.

[-] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

Welcome to programming for consoles. No stackoverflow, no google. Only official docs and internal forums.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

at least theres docs

What is this, c/nosleep?

[-] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

To discover a never before seen error. I love that feeling

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

I barely even use stackoverflow anymore since GPT-4 arrived.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

No results from StackOverflow: you’re either doing something really stupid or something cutting edge. ChatGPT is good for determining which of those it is haha

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

As someone constantly doing stuff on the line of stupid and cutting edge constantly, might need to start doing this.

That or add to the wild west of JavaScript and start writing medium articles about it.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Or worse the only google result is to a forum conversation for your core framework that has been open for 8 years and has never been fixed

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Only search result is a post you made 10 years ago asking the same question.
