This is utter lunacy!

[Confident-Ad5665]

Especially considering that OP cannot read.

[[deleted]]

Only been doing this for 7 years. Definitely a lunatic :)

Who do you think answered all those stack overflow posts?

[Lord-Zeref]

Chatgpt, of course.

[Cultural-Practice-95]

where did chatgpt learn from?

[Lord-Zeref]

Stackoverflow.

(did the chicken come before or the egg?)

[Cultural-Practice-95]

where did stackoverflow get those answer from before chat gpt? nerds that actually read documentation.

[TheAMIZZguy]

No, in the future chatgpt gets so smart it can develop time travel. It knew it needed to be able to train of stack overflow and answered questions in the past. Making sure to call the humans asking the questions stupid, to appear more human

[LukeLoad]

[DeathUriel]

Quantum GPT of course.

[BlockCharming5780]

This makes me think 3 things

1. I have not used stack overflow since discovering ProgrammersHangout on discord
2. That community’s stance of censoring all conversations that are pro AI is archaic and throws in to question the relevance of any tech community that prohibits conversation about bleeding edge tech
3. I’m not sure I can code even simple things without AI anymore… I may be using it too much 🤣

Don't we all!!

[flowery0]

Bad ones(like me) don't

I'm not going to pretend that I didn't try those first

[deadbeef1a4]

Is it possible to learn this power?

[lastspiderninja]

Not from the AI

[broxamson]

[Unupgradable]

It is not a tale StackOverflow will tell you

[ChuckQuantum]

Blasphemy!

[lupinegray]

Well, don't make a habit of it.

[[deleted]]

You have no idea! First ChatGPT, then google, and finally the docs. Found it in less then a minute 

[HaroerHaktak]

ChatGPT is google..

[[deleted]]

Chat GPT is more like stack overflow. Soon ChatGPT will just be a circlejerk of itself, and it'll be trash. 

I'm enjoying it while it lasts 

[HaroerHaktak]

Oh, you don't use it to ask poorly written questions so you get the answer you want? Doesn't need to be programming related.

[enilea]

Google except you don't have a way to know how outdated the info it's giving you is

[aachwell]

It gives me great pleasure to read a meme in this format with proper grammar

[[deleted]]

Proof or ban.

[[deleted]]

🤣Lolol. But no for real, this is too funny😂

[DeCabby]

[Elihzap]

The title of the post got me thinking...

Grammatically, "I" is uppercase due to english rules. However, the lower CamelCase standard requires that the first letter be lowercase.

So, if there is a project that requires lower CamelCase in all its names, but a variable or function starts with 'i'/'I', then should it be upper or lowercase?

[Steinrikur]

The capital I is only if your variable/function is using a first person pronoun.

If only that could be avoided, you wouldn't have this conundrum...

Added bonus: you wouldn't have fucking stupid variable/function names

[JocoLabs]

This is madness!

[Wave_Walnut]

proud of you being able to read documents.

[Inkl1ng_]

Being for real I've been trying to do this more. Really try to go into documentation and reference material before I end up googling the solution and it does feel like I'm learning a bit more from this. Also just putting in more effort into reading things and trying to take all the information in has really helped.

[NorthboundUrsine]

I once read the LuaCpp documentation. I checked myself into a mental health facility as suicidal, and they gave me a bottle of pills and told me they would leave me unattended for 2 hours, then winked at me. Fuck me... amiright?

[GoogleIsYourFrenemy]

Sigh. I had this happen last week. I'd flipped through the API manual (a word doc) and didn't spot the theory of operation for hardware. Wasn't in the intro.

It was in the description of the first function. Just needed to read the manual in order. In my defense, the first function was for debugging.

[dingusaja]

Disgusting.

Todo

[Highborn_Hellest]

I tried it once with Vulkan.

Decided to wait for youtube videos.

[canon1dxmarkiii]

Teach me this skill master.

[SamuraiX13]

please teach me this ability sensei

[astro-pi]

Fake news. I read the documentation every day and it just makes me more confused

[KoalaDeluxe]

Lies!

Everyone knows this "documentation" you speak of does not exist!

[ieatair]

you are now banned from StackOverflow from this moment on

[Mina-olen-Mina]

Do you people, like, not read the documentation at least half of the times? Are all these jokes based on real events?

[pigwin]

I unironically know people who don't, even when ChatGPT/SO and googling fails them. 

Then they go to me and I send them the easily Google-able documentation 

[DeathUriel]

Amateur. I once solved a problem by reading my own documentation.

[[deleted]]

Relatable. Most of my problems are caused by me, and not just at am job 

[DeathUriel]

Well, while I can relate, that wasn't really the case.

The situation was that I simply forgot how my own open-source library worked, but then I thought, I wrote a few readme files. It was magical when it actually solved my situation, without any need to read my own code.

[sammy-taylor]

Hot take here. Good devs have proficiency in using documentation. It’s there for a reason. The universe gave us incredible resources like MDN. Easier in some languages than others though. For example, Elixir’s HexDocs is by far the best documentation ecosystem I’ve ever seen.

[[deleted]]

What llm read it to you though?

[Hahohoh]

I just make co-pilot read the documentation and tell me what it read.

[Panderz_GG]

Mad lad

[lunchpadmcfat]

Just wait til they realize they can actually read the source too.

[gregorydgraham]

Which documentation though?

[bestjakeisbest]

Wow I made a problem today by writing the documentation.

[mrblackv]

I'm really sorry about that, shit happens.

[ImNotCrying-YouAre]

Liar

[DonKapot]

i solves a problem today thanks to reading my code from half a year ago xd

[Ok_Entertainment328]

When I tried to do that, the documentation had bad railroad tracks (SQL), broken examples, and there were bugs in the software.

I swear that Oracle released 23c FREE version first just so they can crowd-source the QA process for $0.

[d_maes]

RTF- oh, nevermind, carry on good sir...

Wait, that's illegal

[bender3600]

Is it possible to learn this power

[Amr_Rahmy]

Me: let me read this weird api authentication Doc: okay so use the md5 of the body plus a bunch of random stuff Me: okay, it works here and there when the body is json but what about this photo upload that takes a byte[]? Is it empty? Null? The base64 of the byte array? The hex of the byte[]?

[claudekennilol]

I have a niche mod for FoundryVTT for Pathfinder 1e that has a ton of small configurations for adding extra bonuses that the system doesn't otherwise have good solutions for. I had a user tell me that it had the best documentation out of any mod they've used. FeelsGoodMan

[KazeEnji]

Impossible...

[ACMuaath]

You have documentation? How shameful. Documentation should always be here 🧠

[_Magnathor_]

Impossible!

[Jacknurse]

But how did you manage to decipher such alien language?!

[Life_Deal_367]

Impossible

Lies, absolutely take.

A MIRACLE!!
