This is the main use I have for browser addins that block sites in search results.
Which add on do you recommend? I’ve often thought, after clicking on some search result that instantly leads me to a full page splash, “I want to never see that domain again”
Yes I've switched to chatgpt for all my programming questions nowadays because of many reasons: 1. It understands the versions more clearly, it won't generate the code for Bootstrap 2 when my question is about Bootstrap 5 2. Asking follow up questions is easy. So the code didn't work. I tell it that and instantly it tells me what I need to do to fix it (leave missing config file, etc) or gives me an alternate. 3. Its…

I find it hard to believe that ChatGPT is useful beyond trivial things or giving you a lead that you can follow on Google. It's very frequently just plain wrong.

I'm so sick of these people on SO.

The most important comment on SO is the one where the OP says "I did this and that, and can confirm it's working". There is no such data when you only use the chat bot. It's a major problem. Perhaps the solution is a more tailored "stack gpt", where the "conversations" are published along with the human responses.
I've noticed this trend for years, basically : - for reference I land on official documentation - for issues I usually land on GitHub issues and source code - for random stuff I still hit SO - like some SQL problem, CSS, algorithm implementation - for design stuff I land on blog posts Personally I see stack overflow value reduce with good reference documentation and GitHub issues/open source dev discussions. The fact…

I wonder what its contribution was to chatgpt’s ability to answer coding questions. And what happens if chatgpt (or similar) displaces it.
Also interesting is that SO has banned chatgpt from answering but I suspect that will be another shadow “AI vs humans” war.
Many have notes that they are out of date in sub-comments. But its hard to be noticed against a 700 upvote selected top answer.
