Installing "Github Co-pilot for VS Code". Am I going to regret this?

@j12t All the secrets!!! But overall it's great, encourages good practice. Responds very well to filling in code after comments you write. Best used by those who can spot its repeated mistakes.

@j12t I find it very nice if you turn off the automatic suggestions.

It's very good at saving you the usual "shit, what's this obscure one liner that I know I'll find at the top result of google in a StackOverflow answer" dev cycle.

Or just speeding up writing structured code that's logically related.

Like if you define a "first_name" variable, you mostly likely also want a "last_name" and it's pretty good at picking up on that.

@j12t I would say to go for zed.dev/ instead! I love it, and AI integration works wonderfully, discretely, and it stays respectfully opt-in (for now).
