Comment on Tell HN: Online coding support we used to know, is dead

Comments

It depends. For really niche questions I still find StackOverflow and similar platforms miles ahead of AI. For generic / beginner questions AI surely works and unfortunately it seems like people think it’s a good idea to just post a question they find online into a LLM and copy the answer straight back to the platform to gain internet points (without even understanding the solution or validating if it actually works).
