Please show the game list in random order, or starting in a random position. Just to promote the discovery of the games later in the alphabet. (Or end up with games called ______11_roguexxx, lol)

Thanks, you just addressed just the points I was curious about the most.

- How will they survive?

- What happens with all those unsolved problems, those that AIs haven't found a source with the solution to scrape from?

Ask HN: Is Stack Overflow Dead?

raphar — Fri, 19 Dec 2025 16:13:27 +0000

With the explosion of AI tools in our workflows this year, I stopped using Stack Overflow and copilot.

Previously, SO was an unavoidable step of my programming effort for navigating or learning new frameworks, for exploring solutions, for debugging strange cases.... But now , it has been a long while since I visited the site.

Are you still using SO, reading, searching, contributing?
