Edit: This was Cory Moll's story. @corymoll. I got the photo from another source.

What I'm listening to today: "Fastest Horse In Town", Sturgill Simpson

So people on this website don't much seem to like it when I post slow psychedelic metal freakouts but, you know what I like? Slow psychedelic metal freakouts.

(Sturgill Simpson again, so there's that country aftertaste.)

I find myself expending energy ignoring it most of the time, and then when I know it will give me a decent suggestion, I will wait for it to autocomplete and accept the suggestion even if it's worse than what I would have written myself. This goes double for comments by the way. The only thing that it's undeniably good for is writing tests.
I have now been using Copilot as encouraged by my employer for a couple of weeks. It seems to give me good suggestions for things that are 100% repetitive. Things that I could have solved in slightly more time with macros or search and replace. However it introduces subtle bugs that I have to go back and fix, and when I'm not doing repetitive things, it constantly gives me bad suggestions that I have to actively ignore.
