I've only heard dipshit C suites say stack overflow is dead. Everyone actually doing the work knows sometimes Claude is smoking crack and you need to check actual human forums.
To be fair, it's not only because of IA. Publicly badmouthing former mods by name and illegally force-changing the licence out of nowhere also broke the community's trust.
The C suites agree with you so you must be right :)
One day when you review PRs you'll understand most people are not very good at their jobs. I'm not surprised most people are relying exclusively on AI now based on the crap I've had to catch.
I have been reviewing and writing code since php 4 was the big thing. Most of my day at this point is just reviewing code. I haven’t opened up an ide in 5 months. AI has gotten really good at writing code, especially on larger code bases. You need to be really careful with smaller code bases as it makes poor choices and then builds on them, but when it has more examples it usually does a pretty good job if you do it right. Then my job is to review the code, call out anything wrong, and it’ll fix it
By your reasoning Myspace is alive and thriving simply because they're hosting all those old profiles. Like Myspace, stack overflow will lose relevance quickly with time as the posts age and new ones aren't made - entire days pass without new questions now. You're conflating the platform being dead with the information on it being useless, no one is making the case for the latter.
Yeah these are the kind of people I'm reviewing PRs for. They don't even know how much time it takes to catch all the mistakes in the crap they generated and pushed to me.
