These LLM articles are so boring. Most of them are like shower thoughts with no data to back up and only the writers experience.

I find all of them slow especially when 3 language servers are running

Nvim is good but requires set up which now I delegate to Claude

Emacs feels too slow and not good if you have carpel tunnel syndrome

With the use AI I find myself writing less and less code, but reading way more than before at work. I have been using IDEA, because in my experience no IDE offers code inspection and navigation as good as IDEA across multiple languages. But it's very slow and mostly geared towards refactoring and editing. I have used VScode and I found it lacking as it is also slow. Nvim is very close to what I want but it takes some getting used to. Which IDE do you use?

Pointing them to docs? Which is anyway what stack overflow answers did?

Or Reddit. I don't know about Claude but Gemini has given me answers that are verbatim comments from Reddit.

One thinking is most people writing software who are not software engineers prefer using AI because they don't think software is valuable in itself, it's only a way to solve a problem. So there are two camps, the other being people who like to solve "software problems". But this latter has been solved by AI

But good data structure is not always evident from the get go. And if your types are too specific it would make future development hard if the specs change. This is what I struggle with

Google translate was not very good, it didn't get context. Deepl was better

And many people don't know what Google stands for. Just like they probably didn't care what AOL stands for, or MSN

I have started using chatgpt for everything from financial planning to holiday planning to product purchase. Whenever I think I hit something useful I add it to memory. I'm a "go" plan user because they had a promotional offer that gave me free access to the plan for a year. Will I continue after one year? Truth is nothing I have in chatgpt cannot be recreated elsewhere. But if I care about keeping those memories I might. I think the real challenge for me now is finding back out conversations, it seems their history search is quite bad.
