I think I saw "guess my fursona" at one point lol
This one's great for different reasons 
this is why i don't use predictive ide's. lol
The Legend has that if you fire up visual studio 2018 with intellicode enabled, start typing "Priv" and only select the predictions it will write a production ready VB6 program for plant management.
This needs sound.
Such as, the computer speaking what it is guessing. With increasing urgency as you keep forcing it to change.
This and autocorrect are the first crap I desactivated on all my devices. It¡s annoying and insulting to have a text undelined in red every word which are not in the poor dictionary of this "feature", or changing FloC with fuck (well, anyway not so different)
Yeah I have autosuggest but not autocorrect. When the word pops up on the 3 choices above the keyboard, they might be useful but they can almost never predict full sentences from what my thought process is.
I find it so bizarre, too. I've been using quite a similar autosuggestion feature as part of Fish shell for a few years now. But when an LLM keeps spewing words at me, that's a whole different shtick. It genuinely just inhibits my thinking, which is a feeling I never had with Fish.
I guess, one difference is that Fish uses real intelligence, a.k.a. my shell history. If it has a suggestion, the chance is high that it's actually what I want to do or close to it. And it also shuts the hell up when there's no good suggestion. I don't have to be constantly vigilant that what it suggests might be complete garbage.
And the other difference is probably that it's *my* intelligence, *my* shell history. I will have thunk the thoughts before which lead to the command it suggests, which brings the brain load much further down again.
Occasionally, it'll suggest something where I have no recollection of having run that command before, but knowing that I have, is still really useful and this only happens for niche commands anyways. Most of the suggestions are just stuff which I've run a few minutes ago or last week or such, where I won't have to think about it.
I guess, it probably also helps that commands have simple formatting, with only a single line and you can mostly read the flags in any order...
Annoying...ly effective!
Lmfao
With enough time, people will complain about anything.
