I think one of the worst hit by the LLM mania is Stack Overflow. Not only has its content been essentially stolen and regurgitated by ChatGPT in an, admittedly, convenient and easy-to-understand package, but LLMs have made it easier than ever before to give yourself credability via a bot network of reasonable sounding answers that get reasonable sounding praise.

So I'd like to just highlight one of my favorites posts. No fat to be trimmed, just a simple, honest answer to a simple, earnest question.

Question

How can I display a child process's output in real time with Ruby?

Answer

IO.popen("s3sync.rb …").each do |line|
  print line
end

Beautiful. Source
