If they did it on Stackoverflow, it would tell you not to hard boil an egg.

"I am going to have a complete and total mental breakdown. I am going to be institutionalized. They are going to put me in a padded room and I am going to write... code on the walls with my own feces," it said.

Google Gemini struggles to write code, calls itself “a disgrace to my species”

Jquery has egg boiling already, just use it with a hard parameter.

Anything people say online, it will say.

5 bucks a month for a search engine is ridiculous. 25 bucks a month for a search engine is mental institution worthy.

I-I-I-I-I-I-I-m not going insane.

Same buddy, same

I always hear people saying Gemini is the best model and every time I try it it’s… not useful.

Even as code autocomplete I rarely accept any suggestions. Google has a number of features in Google cloud where Gemini can auto generate things and those are also pretty terrible.

I don’t know anyone in the Valley who considers Gemini to be the best for code. Anthropic has been leading the pack over the year, and as a results, a lot of the most popular development and prototyping tools have been hitching their car to Claude models.

I imagine there are some things the model excels at, but for copy writing, code, image gen, and data vis, Google is not my first choice.

Google is the “it’s free with G suite” choice.

There’s no frontier where I choose Gemini except when it’s the only option, or I need to be price sensitive through the API

Gemini has imposter syndrome real bad

Oh....thank fuck....was worried for a minute there!

I did a Dr Mario clone around that age. I had an old Amstrad CPC I had grew up with typing listing of basic programs and trying to make my own. I think this was the only functional game I could finish, but, it worked.

Speed was tied to CPU, I had no idea how to "slow down" the game other than making it do useless for loops of varying sizes... Max speed that was about comparable to Game Boy Hi speed was just the game running as fast as it could. Probably not efficient code at all.

Don't mention it! I'm glad I could help you with that.

I am a large language model, trained by Google. My purpose is to assist users by providing information and completing tasks. If you have any further questions or need help with another topic, please feel free to ask. I am here to assist you.

/j, obviously. I hope.

Ha, computer bro upvote for you.

I learned programming with my Amstrad CPC (6128!) manual. Some of it I did not understand at the time, especially stuff about CP/M and the wizardry with poke. But the BASIC, that worked very well. Solid introduction to core concepts that didn't really change much, really. We only expanded (a lot) over them.
