Your boss no longers accepts this idle excuse

...and I've found I stop being nice to Copilot when it starts giving stupid answers. That generally happens when I reply along the lines of "this won't work, because of A, B, C", and it responds with "try this instead" and then proceeds to repeat the exact same thing that lead me to my initial response. And then it fails to acknowledge even that, and that's as far as it'll go.

Just a few months ago, you could easily go to your boss and say, "Oh, StackOverflow is down so I can't move forward on my project." :rolleyes: However, that excuse is no longer valid. Here's the new meme, I just minted[^] to explain it. :-D The Dev game has changed to a whole new level.
I've never worked under those conditions - I was given a task and I completed it - I also never had a boss - I work with people, not for them

So, AI is actually StackOverflow backup device. Good to know. Additionally, AI will never close or downvote your question, or mark it as duplicate.

Succinctly put. I switched for working "for" someone to "with" someone when I went freelance. I felt far more in partnership with my clients, and more invested in their businesses, than I ever did as an employee. I got the feeling though that my approach was not what most were used to when working with freelancers... Also at no point in my career would I ever have even hinted that I'd used SO or any online equivalent. If I didn't know how to do something (which happened quite often) I'd acknowledge it, then use the manuals to find the answer. (And if it was something that my client could reasonably have expected me to know, I wouldn't charge for that time, either. Employers expect to pay for training, clients don't.)

Pretty much mirrors my approach Derek - I was only ever directly employed by a software house once - I lasted a month and hated it - the rest of my time I was freelance using my limited company as a a payment vehicle.
