Interesting. I have tested ChatGPT many times writing PHP code. I am <br>
currently using it to create a framework. I already have a bunch of <br>
code written and it helps me with certain things.<br>
<br>
I interacted with Chat about configuring Postfix, dovecot, squirrel <br>
mail, Bind, let's encrypt (to include configuring cron), and possibly <br>
more.<br>
<br>
I have some familiarity with all these except squirrel mail and what I <br>
saw beat all other documents or tutorial sources.<br>
<br>
Having lots of PHP experience helps me validate the code. I do not know <br>
everything and I used to use Google to search for answers. I now look <br>
to Chat for help!! I use the free version and I rarely login.<br>
<br>
I follow the news often. I'll look to Chat and see what I find.<br>

<br>
I'll look into whether or not Trump is willing to withhold $ from Cal.<br>
