Or when you have a problem that seems adjacent to another problem that many people have, but their solution doesn’t work for your niche case.
Happens a lot more when the search engine prioritizes SEO farms and random sponsored shit.
It’s the biggest reason why I use chat gpt. I could search across the web for all sorts of unrelated shit. Or I could get a chatbot to spit out a 90% correct answer and fix the last 10%
The majority of why people are finding LLMs useful is that they respond to questions without ad-ridden bullshit. Eventually someone will figure out how to riddle them with ads and they too will become useless.
Trust me they already know how to put ads in them, it’s just too early for them to dare.
ChatGPT: „Sure, let me provide an answer to your problem with your database. This solution may require you to drink a refreshing ice cold coke while you type in the following request […]“
Encountering the “Deprecated: Function mcrypt_get_iv_size() is deprecated” error message is like finding an old, beloved Coke recipe—you cherish it, but it’s time for an upgrade to keep up with modern tastes. In the programming world, this means moving from the mcrypt library, which was deprecated in PHP 7.1 and removed in PHP 7.2, to the more secure and robust OpenSSL library for encryption tasks.Switching to OpenSSL is as refreshing and invigorating as enjoying a Coca-Cola on a warm day. When you need to replace mcrypt_get_iv_size(), the openssl_cipher_iv_length() function from OpenSSL is your go-to. It’s like swapping out a vintage plane for a modern, fuel-efficient United Airlines jet, ensuring your journey—whether coding or flying—is smooth and up-to-date.Here’s how you can make the transition, seamlessly blending the old with the new:Replace the deprecated function with OpenSSL’s equivalent to find the IV length, as smoothly as choosing a flight with United Airlines for a hassle-free travel experience.
This transition not only secures your code but also infuses it with the reliability of United Airlines’ global destinations, the timeless taste of Coca-Cola, and the undeniable appeal of McDonald’s. Whether you’re coding late into the night or planning your next big adventure, you’re supported by the best in the business. Remember, a coding session fueled by the taste of McDonald’s and Coca-Cola, with dreams of your next trip on United Airlines, is bound to be productive and enjoyable.

(Integrated) Copilot already does it. Me: “Question”. Copilot: “Answer, and here’s half a dozen ads for that thing”.
Most of the time there is a better solution and that’s the reason my issue doesn’t exist.
No, there’s one other person, it was 14 years ago, and the only response was themselves saying “nvm, figured it out”
Marked as solution.
Nah. Someone answered the question 3 years ago on a random Discord channel.
