LLMs caused this decline. Stop denying that. You don't have to defend LLMs from any perceived blame. This is not a bad thing. The steep decline in the early months of 2023 actually started with the release of ChatGPT, which is 2022-1

It is not "karma". It is not to be taken personally. It represents the objective usefulness of the question, not the personal worth of the person asking it.

Would you care to link to any of those, even ones that might appear to be deleted?

I would ascribe that to these communities evolving differently. There is no reason to assume that the popularity of LaTeX tracks the popularity of programming languages. It's a type setting system. And that doesn't even take int

"well posed questions" And that is exactly why so many people gripe about SO being "toxic". They didn't present a well posed question. They thought it was for private tutoring, or socializing like on reddit. All I c

I think 95% of comments earnestly using the word "toxic" can be disregarded. They were unaware of or unwilling to follow the rules of the site. They mistook SO for reddit, a place for socializing .

The first actually insightful comment under the OP. I agree all of it. If SO manages to stay online, it'll still be there for #2 people to present their problems. Don't underestimate the number of bored people still scouring the

What exactly do you mean by "asymptomatic"? The proper meaning of the word does not fit into what you wrote. "Asymptomatic" means you have a cold but you show none of the symptoms, hence a -symptom-atic, no symptoms.

The ESP32 is quite open, by the company, not by RE efforts. If you were under the impression that community RE was to praise for its usability, then you must be thinking of the ESP8266 or what came before it, not the ESP32. This video is no

Site is AI-generated. The post to HN is AI-generated. As other comments point out, lots of holes. I think nobody should pay for that.

Your entire post does not once mention the form you call correct. If you intend for people to click the link, then you might just as well delete all the prose before it.

Not "paywalled". They just want you to log in. This costs nothing. Not does the account registration. The solution seems to be to have the video "rated" in some way. Or host it elsewhere.

It's not about fear of "degrading information". A function must check its arguments. It cannot assume that the arguments are already checked (against its own requirements). This is regardless of what called it, or where the v

Time to ban all adverts everywhere. I'm not the only one who is fed up with ads. I don't see ads, thanks to ad blocking tech in browsers and smartphones. Any time that happens to fail and I get to endure an ad, I am amazed that re

"Untyped" means, for example, you can't tell a string from a number, because they are the same type. You mean "not statically typed". Which also applies to Javascript, PHP, Python, ... so if that critique doesn&

IDK which AI this is supposed to trip up. "ASCII Smuggling" has been known for months at least, in relation to AI. The only issue LLMs have with such input is that they might actually heed what's encoded, rather than dismissi

There are two "Gmail" things here: the actual service with a web site (mail.google.com), and an android app on your phone that is called "Gmail". They are axing the "pull" path of the actual service. That path

How is google mail still supporting a "fetch" via IMAP of mails stored in a third party service? What are the settings to poke on mail.google.com for this? The announcement clearly says that "Check mail from other accounts&qu
