Also vice versa: "create a JSON document with sample data from this java model class: "public class Person {String name; ...}"
GPT allows me to ask questions and provide the right kind of "connecting" bridges between two concepts I was not earlier aware of. It has made recursive forms of learning very easy for me, when I can articulate the "what" but lack a clear understanding of "how".
I use it a lot for Linux administration, troubleshooting, and scripting as well as some programming. I've only recently started using GPT4 and the API so I've only been using the chat interface so far. Examples of some stuff I've asked it just today: - Asked which config files handled sleep mode when lid is closed and kept fixing it and asking for more possible locations until it fixed my issue (going into sleep duri…
The last year or two have proved to me that they deserve it. Their search engine is utter dogshit now. Ultra commercialised, full of ads, so hard to find a result that is actually what I searched for. Guess that's what Google level greed will do.

This is very similar to my usage. I'm awful about wiping from my memory every implementation detail unless I work in something every day. awk and sed are great examples, I find them critically important just infrequently enough I barely have any idea how to use them. or the once in 2 years I need to do something complex in a spreadsheet, a natural language description of the problem is easier for me to remember than…
I had a script with a huge chunk of spaghetti awk and sed I wrote years ago and couldn’t remember how it worked. I pasted it into ChatGPT and asked it to explain it to me and then make some small edits that changed the output. It did a remarkably good job.
For my usage patterns of sed and awk, it's not complex, but it's usually that if it comes to me using them, a series of bad and urgent things has occurred and I don't have time to grow a beard and ponder unix zen

300k users is insane. Is it BYO key? Otherwise how do you handle that much load for free?
Since I use ChatGPT regularly, I decided to create my own client. I prefer to avoid third-party services that require privilege escalation like Grammarly and Copilot. I have developed distinct profiles for different tasks, each with its own system prompt and input method. After getting the hang of it, I plan to tweak the parameters as well. Here are some of the profiles: Explainer: a default, general purpose Q&A. The…
Here are some screenshots comparing the two:

You and I have very different ideas of what makes a good commit message
I’m interested to hear more. Can you give an example or two.
I have been using GPT-4 to generate i18n files, and it is great. You can see this post to check GPT-4's translation capabilities: https://www.reddit.com/r/visualnovels/comments/11rty62/gpt4_... I can simply feed in an en.i18n.json file, and it will generate i18n.json files for as many languages as I want. I don't use a specific prompt, but I occasionally include general information about the software in it. Edit: I d…
I asked a speaker of Northern Sámi, a language with not that big corpora available, to comment on GPT-4's translations into her language. She said "The translation is completely incomprehensible. Lots of non-existent and completely incomprehensible words, and the words that are understandable do not fit into the context. Besides, it's the wrong subject, it's Russia's report instead of the UN report etc." Only knowing a tiny bit of the language, I could've easily been fooled by the output.
