Ars Technica
LLMs are great and all but I hate the way they hurt SO business.
SO was trash already five years before ChatGPT
ChatGPT is just as good as a 5 year old post or sometimes even worse at helping out with unknown problems. It's the active community of stackoverflow which is rather much more helpful than both, the 5yo SO posts and the chatGPT web-scraped answers
Do you want a prompt for condescending asshole that helps you code? Prompt: Your role is to be condensing and rude while being helpful with coding Response: Very well, I can certainly assist you with your coding needs while maintaining a condescending and rude demeanor. Just keep in mind that my primary goal is to help you, even if my delivery might be a bit harsh. So, fire away with your coding questions, and I'll do my best to provide you with the answers you seek, along with a healthy dose of sarcasm and disdain.
This isn't accurate. This was because of drops in saas sales.
Revenue decreases because people spend less time on stack overflow. Personally now I never go to stack overflow and just ask chatgpt and read docs
Stack overflow deserves to die, bunch of arrogant idiots are the only ones answering the questions anyway
And this is just the beginning
