Cut off the legs obviously

True that. But I often find that the search engine is not very good at giving me a solution if I don’t know the name of a problem and only have my spaghetti thoughts on what the thing is supposed to do, and translating spaghetti thoughts into something a search engine can find is where the chatbot excels.

Oh man, I love ChatGPT for one thing in particular: “Hey chatbot, is there some library or standard library function for that very specific, yet still kinda generic thing I’m trying to do, so that I don’t have to write it myself?”

It does frequently give a helpful answer. That is, it doesn’t give me working code, but a helpful pointer to some manual where I can find good instructions for how to use the thing to solve my problem.

Don’t believe it. This is easily too good to be true.

This kind of rhetoric doesn’t sit well with me. There is a difference between being a pedophile and abusing children. Pedophilia is a mental disorder and I can imagine that being attracted to children is pretty damn terrible if you’re also trying to do the right thing. I think there needs to be acceptance towards pedophilia (not towards abusing children) so that the affected people feel safe in talking about their condition and get the appropriate help (so that they don’t end up abusing children).
