600 labels per store per week. Seems like a big chunk of the inventory changes price every week, not just some tens of articles for a temporary sale.

In a way it's still the same with more modern languages. Especially OOP, setting an object to Null is just setting the address pointer to to 0x00000000.

Hence NullPointerException / NullReferenceException or similar, depending on the language.

Right? Provide a fast pc, internet,food and they'll stay voluntarily.

Don't let yourself down because you don't know the syntax off the top of your head.

Even after 15 years of programming, and studying computer science, I would have to look up how to write loops, conditions, variable assignments in bash / sh / batch.

Coming to python from a primarily java focus background wasn't any different. I knew what steps the program should do, but had to look up how to translate it into whatever language. And for further improvements what features the language has to express the things "in the style of the language"

300 nested if statements, (...) added another 5000 nested if statements.

At this point I want to doubt that they actually wrote it themselves, vs writing a metaprogram to generate the code.

Ording online seems out of the options (need to exit vim to learn how to exit vim) , so ask in a library or physical bookstore. :q

It may be similar for most professions. But the difference is that programming is much more accessible to everyone than medical stuff, or even car mechanics.

Lets take the example of someone finding solution X for [problem], but X is wrong, but not fatal:

• Medical: possible malpractice lawsuit.
• car mechanic: Lost $$$ buying wrong parts
• Programming: Error hopefully caught by tests / QA. If the issue made it into production, roll it back to the prev version.

But it seems very likely other professions will also "google the problem"

• Woodworker: how to do X joint, constructions for drawer, table,..
• Car mechanic: likely cause of X, how to diagnose faults. Especially if they work on all cars
• Repairman: same as car mechanic. Also diagrams, and pinout of chips.
• Eletrical engineering: Parts, pinouts, troubleshooting issues with design
• Cashier: What's the number for Bananas? (ok, they don't use the internet for that)
• Waiters: Where was table 69?
• Fast food worker: "Legal to get fired over eating a fry?"

Not just for writing, and testing samples. It will also explain the parts of the regex.

However it won't generate examples that will pass the regex - which may be the biggest benefit of chatGPT.

That's the problem. It will confidently give you an correct sounding answer.

If it is actually true is a different topic. So don't just blindly trust it. Verify, or at least sanity check it.

You could call it a botnet

Iirc they require 5 votes with the same response. Your effort won't do anything, other than flag you as unreliable.

Afaik 4chan (of course) did that poisoning correctly, "classifying" the unknown words as "penis" (of course).

The solution is obviously to replace the mods by bots, to fight other bots.

Battle bots, but virtual XD

You poor soul.
