Well, it's terrible at factual things and counting, and even when it comes to writing code it will often hallucinate APIs and libraries that don't exist - But when given very limited-scope, specific-domain problems with enough detail and direction, I've found it to be fairly competent as a rubber ducky for programming.
So far I've found ChatGPT to be most useful for:
Writing SQL. Seriously, it's fantastic at writing SQL if you tell it the relevant schema and what you're trying to achieve.
Brainstorming feature flow - Tell it the different parts of a feature, ask for thoughts on how the user should be guided through the process, and it does a decent job of suggesting ideas.
Generating alternative names/labels for buttons and such. "In X feature, I have a button that does Y when the user has Z. Currently I have that button labelled 'Start Y', but it feels robotic and impersonal. List 10 suggestions for what such a button could say to be more personal and friendly." and the like. My favorite was a button that was labelled "Map Incoming Data to Job Details". Wound up renaming the whole process to just "Job Ingestion" because it sounded so good.
Reformatting data. Give it a data structure and tell it you want that data in some other data structure, and it is really accurate at reformatting it. I don't think I'd trust it with a huge amount of data that way, but for an unimportant one-off it was a nice time savings.
Geordi actually was addressed at one point, basically he found the extra sensory abilities the visor gave him to feel natural, and removing those extra senses would be like removing a limb for him
Honestly I felt the same way for a long time, until I decided to just learn the motions. Now I couldn't go back.
The combination of actions and motions makes it incredibly fast to edit code - Imagine you have a strong in double quotes that you want to change the double quotes to single quotes. There's a plugin called vim-surround that combines with the basic motions and with my cursor before or within the strong, I can just type cs"' and it's done.
Want to copy everything within a pair of parentheses? yi) ... So many things like that.
Even for editing things like HTML, `cst delete surrounding tag. That will remove the tag around some content without changing the content.
(Neo)vim is incredibly important to my workflow these days and it feels like I write and edit code at the speed of thought.
Interesting, i havent had any of those issues with my controllers; Granted on my primary rig I use the USB dongle for my Xbox Series controller, but I use Bluetooth fine on my Steam Deck when I'm playing docked. Sucks to have trouble when you're trying to show off for sure though lol
Back in the distant past of 2008, a RuneScape player by the name of Icedpizza thought my complaints about driver problems on older hardware would be easily solved by this incredible thing I'd never heard of called Ubuntu. Downloaded 8.04 Hardy Heron and my life has never been the same since.
Most adobe things should work in Wine, no? At least they did a few years ago
