Nope not freaking out, enjoying it.

I recently started using chatGPT as my programming buddy and it's been so helpful in learning new tech compared to slogging through a "Getting started" doc which sometimes has an agenda ("Use our cloud solution" or "Our pro service does it all") or crawling through stack overflow posts which may be only a 95% hit on my actual question.

ChatGPT gives me answer in simple easy to understand english, and even provides concise examples. It's amazing.


I've been trying to remove the word 'Just' from my vocabulary.

As the author states when you use it speaking to someone else, it implies a sense of triviality to the person's problems.

When I use it in reference to my self, ie "I was just going to move this over" It implies a sense and feeling of defensiveness. Since realizing these things I find myself more confident when I check my speech and remove just from it.
