It helps me as autocomplete, but that’s about it. The increase in productivity is negligible. The problem I have is suddenly feeling dependent on it. It’s like with navigation software. We rely on it so much, suddenly we can’t navigate our way out of a paper bag when it’s not around. There’s something unsettling about having the floor pulled out from under you like that.

If I was simply someone trying to get a job done and drone through the day, sure, it’s probably fine. But I’m someone that needs to know and understand everything I put into my commits, and I actually enjoy coding.
