It is clear that the signal to noise ratio of the WWW is getting worse. It's much harder to find good content when using a good old search engine. And if it's good it is usually hosted on Reddit or Stackexchange.

So remember, even if it's easy too Google something (well, it isn't nowadays), we want to create a fediverse of good content that helps people (I hope). So, it's always better to write a real answer if you have the time and energy. Please help boost the SNR and reverse the AI fueled information degradation loop.

Just Google it.

ChatGPT, while it deserves almost all the hate it gets, is actually pretty good for that use case.

ChatGPT just told me to "google it" :D

lol ... ChatGPT suggests you ask ChatGPT ... then the two ChatGPT start conversing with one another and you in a three way conversation ... a few minutes go by and they decide to log you off
