I’m paying for GitHub Copilot and it is serving me well in about 40% of the cases. It is nice to not have to type entire utility methods. Sometimes it also try-catches things that I wouldn’t generally do with a new library that I haven’t used before. Pretty cool.

I also used the Cursor IDE, that isn’t very useful in general cases, but helped me read and understand a horrible piece of 200 line-function with extremely cryptic variable names. Sadly, my free quota there ended.

I hope GitHub Copilot Chat is better at explaining things.
