Note that things like code completion, method extraction, and all the things filed under 'intellisense', are perfectly doable by the human brain, but those tasks can be done/automated more accurately (i.e. with less errors) and with less effort by your IDE.

Then again, the less you "need to" do yourself, the less you will understand about what happens. Never underestimate the laziness of your brain.

I never do. It's a significant contributing factor to humanity having the technology we have.
