Reminds me of being on IRC in 97 asking questions about Assembly. When someone did finally respond it was "Did you read the manual yet"? It's ironic that SO became what it was replacing.
- nurettin 3y agoI was on IRC circa 2002 asking C++ questions. Next year I was the one answering. Weirdly best time of my life.

- DoesntMatter22 3y agoYes I showed him the exact page that talked about my issue and he never responded. Still a silly response. He could have answered it in 30 seconds and saved me 10 hours. I think ChatGPT is amazing foe this because you will rarely have to deal with anyone who has this type of attitude when you need help in the future
