Can you call yourself an engineer if most of your code was from stackoverflow?

ok....... but how is stackoverflow gonna make money off this? since if I was an advertiser.... I'm not advertising to bots.................

Bro, todo el trabajo que antes tenía que hacer buscando en Stackoverflow la respuesta correcta, me lo ahorro en un par de mensajes.

StackOverflow

the only advantage it has is it can write 'good looking' code as if it came from stackoverflow perfected question faster then most developers. but anything more advanced then what a google search can find, it breaks.

👀Can AI Save #StackOverflow? Will #AI-powered communities become the next evolution of knowledge sharing, or are we witnessing the decline of a model that defined the internet for decades? @RandyAbernethy explores these questions. rx-m.com/can-ai-save-stack-o… #AgenticAI

I need some help. I need to find a set of URLs that would likely be indexed by a model but don't describe what's in the URL. For example: MDN URLs name the API so I believe the output would be influence, but StackOverflow URLs point to a question ID. I need something like SO. I'm doing some research on if a URL can influence the output of a prompt to the point that you don't have to inject the contents of the URL as context.

e só hoje que eu fui entender o significado do site stackoverflow 😂 tô aqui estudando pilha (estrutura de dados) que em inglês é stack, e overflow é quando o array da pilha explode (overflow) kkkk gente quando eu vi isso tudo fez sentido

AI agents are confused deputies, and they pose a real security threat when we give them the keys to our kingdoms. That's what happened with the recent Instagram breach, when hackers got control of more than 20,000 accounts using the Meta AI support agent. In this piece from The Heap, Fabio Salvadori explores what happened during that breach and why human judgement in our code is more important than ever. stackoverflow.blog/2026/06/1…

It was really fun to talk on the StackOverflow podcast! I got to rant about things

Hay una frasecita que dice “la IA saca codigo rápido, pero 6 meses después llegan los bugs, los agujeros de seguridad y la deuda técnica” Como si el código escrito a mano por humanos iluminados no hubiera dejado cagaderos monumentales desde antes de que existiera ChatGPT o Stackoverflow. Lo único que me dice esa posición es que nunca han trabajado en un producto con tracción real, o que su participación fue tan trivial que jamás tuvieron que vivir con las consecuencias de sus propias decisiones.

Thought I'd heard this usage on the stackoverflow pod in early 2000s, Joel at least uses it on his blog in 2004, 5 years before lesswrong. Fairly common programming nomenclature by that time

Yup. AI is now what stackoverflow used to be

theres a massive disparity in the sentiment around SWE on X (ai is taking everyone's jobs, we built stackoverflow and now that data is ruining our careers) and actually talking to developer friends who have seemingly no concern interested to see which has legs

True in the sense that the release of chatgpt (gpt3) precipitated the subsequent arms race As soon as stackoverflow was replaced it was game over

I would rather use llms over stackoverflow.

Documentation remains an important part of development, even as AI changes how devs interact with code. Last year, GitHub was the most desired collaboration tool, with 59.3% of developers wanting to use it for documentation. Meanwhile, Markdown (75.8%) remained the most admired documentation tool for the third year in a row. How do you think agentic workflows will change these numbers in 2026?

design the architecture first like an old great man, then feed ai tiny bounded tasks refactor ruthlessly with solid, otherwise its just a hyperactive intern with stackoverflow open
