from 10b0t0mized: I miss the days when I had to go through a humiliation ritual before getting my questions answered.

Now days you can just ask your questions from an infinitely patient entity, AI is really terrible.

    I’m not surprised. StackOverflow has moderated itself out of relevance. Ask a question and get flamed. DDG a question plus “stackoverflow” and get something that may well have been correct and useful in 2012 but tech moves on and it’s now archaic trivia, somewhat akin to facts about punched cards. “Help me StackOverflow, you’re my only hope” hasn’t been true for quite some time now.

      They moderated themselves out of relevance because when you ask new questions that aren’t duplicates they still close them as duplicates.
