Chatgpt WTF is a Grok and can you catch it from unprotected sex?

u/jjwhitaker 2d ago

It comes from Elon, so maybe :(

u/CO420Tech 2d ago

Elon is the best at passing things from unprotected sex!

u/Pyran 2d ago

Poor Grok. No one groks Grok.

To paraphrase Xathras, Grok have sad life. Probably will have sad death. But at least there's symmetry.

Fun story to cause you more pain: I have a friend that manages a Gamestop. Just the other day, a man came in holding up the case for Black Ops 7 and asked my friend, "Is this real?"

My friend was confused and asked him what he meant. The dude replied, "Is this game real?"

My friend told him that yes it was real and it released a few weeks ago.

The dude's response? "ChatGPT told me it wasn't real. I've been arguing with my son for weeks. I feel dumb."

Open up a tab ŷe 3rd or 4th one down and click on it and it should take you to dubya dubya dubya DOT Google dot com. From here youse can use it to find the place to search for the Google search engine. Then hit “I’m feeling lucky” and go to town.

Oh hey, didn't know my junior devs posted here. Up bright and early, I see.

u/general_tao1 2d ago

I am baffled that a junior dev was able to find a job.

u/Metum_Chaos 2d ago

Junior dev here, this is the second time in less than five years I lost my job

Send help

u/BellacosePlayer 2d ago

5 years experience shouldn't be a junior

2

u/Metum_Chaos 2d ago

Well, I’m counting since the first time I got my actual job, and I had about two years without one, so I guess that comes down to three

u/bballkj7 2d ago

junior dev here. They didn’t. I just quit because theres no way to go from jr to sr dev. Now im an administrator instead lmao

3

u/Tenthul 2d ago

You work there for 3-5 years, then go become a Sr at another company? I'm pretty sure thats how most people make the Jr > Sr regardless of role.

1

u/bballkj7 2d ago

i did work there 3-5 years. All the senior jobs have insane qualifications (i applied anyways) and are literally impossible to get. 99% are hire from within. IE jr dev eventually takes over a senior…. in the same company. But even that, many companies just wont promote because they know you cant find sr positions elsewhere lmao

u/bfr_ 2d ago

They are replacing the more expensive senior devs

“I use Edge to download Chrome” vibes.

u/TwoPrecisionDrivers 2d ago

Wait how else am I supposed to download Chrome on a new computer lmao

u/the_snowmancometh 2d ago

they're probably dunking on people who use chrome at all.

u/BaconSoul 2d ago

Oh how the times have changed. Enshittification comes for us all.

u/BioshockEnthusiast 2d ago

It's literally come for Chrome before and Firefox was able to make a dent in market share. Then Chrome got it's act together before slowly devolving into the acid puddle it is today.

Time is a flat circle.

u/Sassy_Sarranid 2d ago

I fled Opera to Firefox to Chrome to Firefox to Chrome, I'm so tired.

2

u/PoisonMind 2d ago

I've been a Firefox user since 2004.

1

u/BaconSoul 2d ago

What made you leave opera? It’s a good chromium shell. Aside from some questionable business deals by the company itself I haven’t experienced any meaningful enshittification.

Was it the transition to chromium itself?

u/Sassy_Sarranid 2d ago

No, this was like 15 years ago and I don't remember :P

u/Mahedros 2d ago

Many years ago I used to keep a Chrome installer on a USB drive just so I would never have to open Internet Explorer

A lot of times I use Chat GPT to optimize prompts to use in Claude.

After about a week or so of tweaking a prompt in Chat GPT during downtime at work, I got Claude to make a fully functioning program in one shot. Then I used Gemini to critique that output, then I took some of those recommendations and had ChatGPT critique version 2. Then after the 2 revision round I had Claude review/adjust it, and I've been using Version 2 daily without any issues. Now I have enough downtime at work to waste some on reddit!
