dhh is the creator of Ruby on Rails. He has extensively used Mac for decades. A few months ago, as far as I remember, he mentioned something like switching to Windows and WSL.

dhh is also an insufferable prick, sucks off Elon, and Rails was garbage under his stewardship

It’s the reality for many developers today.

Absolutely, you’d be dumb to not use the tools at your disposal

He doesn’t anymore. I’m pretty sure he justified it by saying that it makes you slower because you end up with a habit of waiting for it to tell you the wrong answer.

Back in my day i just used rivets we didnt need these new fangled screws and their drivers.

Yes I get what your saying, but in this analogy the screws are destroying the planet, and also hallucinate enough to be completely untrustworthy as fastenings.

I agree. The issue is people are not comparing this to a manual lookup. they are comparing it to another person who is just as likely to hallucinate/misremember things.
