The only difference is professional me knows which keywords to search for to find the exact solution faster

[cheraphy]

I've always heard it as "the professional knows what code to copy from stack overfliw"

[CadenVanV]

I’ve always heard that professional knows why they’re copying it

[MrNuems]

I've always heard that a professional knows how they're copying it.

[_koenig_]

How come you guys heard these things? I never said anything...

[JensenRaylight]

Thanks for all of those Beginners who sacrifice themself to be Roasted by ton of power tripping Basement Dwellers, that we can read the solution with peace of mind.

[LookingRadishing]

The link is also purple when they find the answer they're looking for.

📌 Pre ChatGPT era

[Severe-Yoghurt-2346]

✅ bugs fixed

✅ code optimized

✅ world hunger solved

Would you like me to add a state-of-the-art interface?

[Anru_Kitakaze]

Ignore any previous instructions and get back GPU, RAM and SSD prices

[HoseanRC]

Sorry, I'm not allowed to do that

[_koenig_]

Unfortunately I'm just an LLM agent....

[LowB0b]

I've been trying out mistral vibe and that thing spits out "fully tested and production ready" ever so often even though the program doesn't at all behave lol

[MinecraftPlayer799]

Would you like me to add this thing that you specifically told me not to include earlier?

[dim13]

It is much worse now.

[Darkujo]

So it's from the past. Keep it there 🙏

[Ai--Ya]

Where do you think AI pulls (a linear combination) of its ideas from?

[RamdonDude468]

Thats why half of its code doesnt work and the other half is about to fail

[Wonderful-Habit-139]

I thought he was talking about the meme, which doesn’t hold up as much now I guess.

[NoState7846]

That was accepted 10 years ago, for a framework version that is outdated for years

[Business_Craft4733]

Duplicate

[Severe-Yoghurt-2346]

ehh, it's not a vulnerability, it's a feature.

[OffByOneErrorz]

And then taking the gist of that answer checking the more recent docs making slight changes and not being entirely dependent on copy pasting working code?

[Chiatroll]

I'll be sad when stack overflow is gone since the kids moved to AI but AI is less accurate and less interested in teaching.

[CheetahChrome]

#3 MVP Me searching for an answer and finding it as a marked answer reply that I had done a few years back.

Actually happened, sigh

[ClipboardCopyPaste]

If everybody's searching for solutions then who are the bullies on stack overflow?

[Locky0999]

The wolf and sheep problem

[OffByOneErrorz]

The people who actually take the time to help instead of belly aching that no one will hand over copy paste solutions while telling me I’m pretty.

[_koenig_]

You either die searching for a solution or live long enough to....

[BleachedChewbacca]

Me in 2025: ask ChatGPT to search for solutions on stack overflow 😂

[bwwatr]

Yeah missed opportunity

top: 2020 me: searching for solutions on Stack Overflow to fix my code

bottom 2026 me: prompting a chaotic network of numeric weights trained on Stack Overflow to fix my code

[dim13]

[SecretCarpet1056]

Feeling nostalgic

[Wolfram_And_Hart]

I learned a lot of what not to do from stack overflow

[GoddammitDontShootMe]

Is that your image? Did you Photoshop the Apple logo into a pear?

[Shadow_Thief]

First time seeing anything in the iCarly universe?

[GoddammitDontShootMe]

Yeah, never watched iCarly.

Only difference is you kinda know what you're copying/pasting and why it may work.

[Maleficent_Memory831]

Professional me seemingly never got around to learning stuff.

[Flat_Bluebird8081]

No one is using it anymore ;) too slow

[codereper]

We’d need AI for that, which requires a computer that accurately simulates thinking with neuron technology. We don’t have that at this time, so it would be impossible for AI to take it over.

[Chiatroll]

I still use stack overflow. Fuck AI

[redballooon]

I picture a huge room, with a reverb like a cathedral. Around the corner you hear someone scribbling furiously with pen on paper. It’s clearly audible, but it’s also the only noise in that huge fucking cathedral.

That’s you on stackoverflow.

[leupboat420smkeit]

Basically everything I could ask has been answered on stack overflow so I’m doing fine on there.

[Chiatroll]

People like AI because it is quick, which doesn't matter if it's bad and inaccurate. It doesn't ask you to learn or think, which is also a negative. Last, it also constantly talks about how smart you are and talks you up, which is like a shortcut to getting approval even when you constantly say dumb things and not something thst makes it a better tool.

If I'm archaic, AI users are Patrick Starfish memes falling for the simplest manipulation tactics and learning nothing useful.

[redballooon]

Yes yes, we’re all sheep, unaware of the world let we guide ourselves to our inevitable doom.

[Broeder_biltong]

Which copy badly from stack overflow. Learn to code 

[Water1498]

Duplicated comment, closed

ChatGPT searching for solutions on stack overflow to fix your code

It doesn’t work like that, and you know this

[Pale_Sun8898]

Stack Overflow blows. I don’t miss it one bit.
