Yeah I was perturbed when I saw how accurately it guessed what I wanted from code. I would add something in one file and swap to another file to interact with it and it instantly recognized and knew what to do with it. Freaky stuff, I turned it off because I'll never improve as a developer if I depend on this thing.
Though maybe the future is learning how to depend on it and be hyper-productive with it. Interesting thought...
If you as a devoper learn patterns and concepts, best practcies etc, it only saves you time googling, stackoverflowing stuff.
IMO copy pasting from stackoverflow without understading the code is same as using blindly copilot, so in the end if you courius developer copilot will give you more options to think about and will act as huge snippets library
I do not think so. it's like vscode and notepad. nodepad users are not sure to get better practice & learn more than vscode users.
on the contrary, copilot will help you save time google, you also learn from the code it suggests, you still have to edit the code to suit your project. and you have time to re-architect the whole project

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.

Yes if you are Junior developer you shouldn't use this thing as it will limit your practices.
But I think this is somehow revolutionary. I always wonder if robots could create softwares without human. But it's not possible.
That is why i switch it off unless i am in a hurry to meet a deadline

Yeah that's what I thought too. New developers should not use this tool as this may stop them from learning new things
Yes.
