Asks Copilot
Copilot gives an answer pulled directly from Stack Overflow
Hey, it’s supposed to be acting like a programmer. Maybe copilot really is one of us 🤔
I’m sorry but stackoverflow will give you a tardigrade and swear to you that it was a frog when they tried it on their PC
Or it’ll give you nothing because it’s a fucking duplicate (of a tardigrade).
I find ChatGPT more coherent than stackoverflow in many cases. Sure it hallucinates and sometimes acts like it has dementia but at the very least it won’t write 5 paragraphs about how the framework behind my issue works without giving any examples.
Stackoverflow is good for finding alternative approaches, getting explanations for how stuff works in the framework, and error investigations. Useless for getting information on stuff you don’t already know.
