I credit wordle and framed.wtf in the about section. This formatting of games has exploded in the last couple years, it really is a great way to get people returning each day
That's a fair take. I can't overstate Stack Overflow has been in the past, I think I often had that experience that it usually caters to common but specific scenarios, or I'm just impatient and lurk instead of asking a question and waiting for a response. Interesting I could paste Stack overflow discussions into ChatGPT to ask if this insight is related to my issue and it was usually open to relating the new info and helping me
I think it's great that GPTs make it possible for people to achieve things like this! And kudos to you for stepping out of your comfort zone and learning new stuff.
I think the main apprehension people (/devs) have about this, is how the new generation of full time coders will be. Will they blow our socks away, with their AI-enhancements? Or will they never have learned the core concepts, but just jump from issue to issue like a junior for ever?
I found this to be the case as well. My out productivity declined as the project became more unwieldy. I wasn't using ES6 so would very much like to modularize things and use imports/exports next time. "Working code is working code" but I'd dread the idea of someone collaborating on top of my spaghetti. Lot of lessons learned in that respect. Having to reset ChatGPT's understanding of the latest code was tiresome.
ChatGPT actually suggested firebase for some very basic JSON event logging output I wanted to produce but I'm just realising AWS has something called amplify?
JavaScript has a reputation for being quirky but I'm assuming it has come a long way in the last 10 years (or maybe not) but very quickly I became comfortable with it in an obviously limited way. Next project I'd be more interested in a framework but I'm glad I cut my teeth trying to understand the basics first
