Text to regular expression! Have wanted this *so* many times since I started programming.
I once had a problem and used regex. Then I had two problems Never again. With the help of our GPT-3 overlords, I made something to turn English into regex. It's worked decently for most descriptions I've thrown at it. Sign up at losslesshq.com to play with a prototype
