No, it wouldn't. Merely finding the examples and deps would take over an hour.
- conartist6 8mo agoBack when, we'd just go write a blog post or SO answer so the next person wouldn't suffer as much. Thank god THOSE days are over and everyone just lets everyone else suffer alone now
- coldtea 8mo agoAnd when those resources dry up for newer stuff, and LLMs start training on LLM output, they'll start degrading
- iijaachok 8mo agoYes, because search engines are populated with SEO-optimized LLM-filled articles that say nothing of value anymore. The only reason AI-assisted tools are "better" is because Web search is so much worse.
- mexicocitinluez 8mo agoIt's like everyone forgot that the first result for anything web-related would be W3schools, and the next 5 would be spam message boards that tries to scrape all the other boards and sends you to a porn site when you click on it.
- mrbombastic 8mo agoYeah it is worse now but I don’t remember it ever being good. If you know where to look and have a trusted set of resources curated sure, but of course you won’t for unfamiliar territory which is exactly what LLMs help with.
