A shitpost that's been brewing in my head for a while now
@sop Honestly? Yeah. I'll admit; I have this feature enabled in my code editor. It's basically like this. For natural language documents, it's sufficiently annoying that I have to turn it off for markdown files, but even in code, it's very hit or miss. I think i'm going to just turn it off entirely, after seeing this, because genuinely, i agree. The completions in this video are not even really an exaggeration; it's genuinely that hyperactive and changes its mind constantly. It is fucking annoying.
@sop As much as it "maybe does help" or there is a placebo effect, at least in my case, I know i don't need it. Some environments force me to disable it; I do comply with those rules; and I can still code fine. I'm not a "vibe coder"; I'm not reliant on it. It's just been by go-to to have this specific tool for years, and it was never quite so obviously useless that I've urgently wanted to disable it. But this video did make me realize, that yes, it is annoying. Yeah, i'm probably not benefiting from it.

> yes, it is annoying. Yeah, i'm probably not benefiting from it.

No, you aren't benefitting from it.
It's not there for you, you are there for it: to train it as an apprentice, metaphorically speaking.
