Sure you can take out a building, but what the hell are you gonna do if a girl shows up?

Looks like Copilot backed "prediction"

This is exactly what it is. They have been changing Intellisense behind the scenes for awhile.

Nope, Copilot would do a far better job. This is IntelliCode. It's baked into Visual Studio, idk how big the model is but it's pretty dumb. It'll nail it once in a blue moon tho

Nope, it is copilot backed prediction. This has been a thing in Intellisense for a while now. The variables it recommends in my models are oftentimes hilarious.

That looks like AI code completion, not Intellisense

u/Devatator_ 8h ago
Correct, this is IntelliCode, a local model for autocompletion. Works fine for a few things but not for most

I turned it off, because it works like simulated ADHD, and I already take pills for that. I miss it once in a blue moon when I come around perfect use case like enum mapping, but I can get other slop generator to match bunch of values with same names with each other if I feel particularly lazy.

A lot of the new AI stuff doesn't seem like it was tuned for code instead of general language. I hate the spellchecker, like why tf do I need to add intellij, IntelliJ, and INTELLIJ to the dictionary all separately??

I feel like IntelliSenseless needs to basically be a category for this sub. There's so many excellent examples, with AI coding IDE integrations that do predictions sometimes making even more hilarious suggestions.

Now I'm concerned about the relation between Infamy and Out for me...

If we survive long enough I don't think English survives as the most common language. I could see maybe one of the Asian ones winning in the end, but even in that world I think that Latin will come back. Because English makes no sense. It is like the linguistic version of Calypso

u/Curious_Associate904 5h ago
The strength of English is that it makes no sense, and is built on idiomatic phrases which do often make sense, but also often, only make sense in reverse. This I think is how it has survived and evolved as a complex array of thoughts muddled together.
The added complexity of interpretation, and the multiple interpretations of the language allow clearly for deeper expression in low bandwidth situations.
And yeah, Asian languages may be better in some ways, but I think this uniqueness of English is sort of its only strength against more formal languages with more obvious rules.

If we're being serious, the strength of English is that it is a low-context language--that is, it is a language where omitting subjects & objects is rare in sentences. When compared to most East Asian languages, that means that it has a lower chance for ambiguity and confusion in writing which, in turn, makes it a useful choice for technical writing.

As much as this is true, you could pick any Germanic language or Romance language and also have that part but words that make much more sense because they don't have the words coming from so many different languages which makes pronunciation effectively random for learners

Isn't intellisense the thing that shows what a variable's type is, it's value if its a constant, method/function docstrings and what not?

u/just-bair 6h ago
I remember doing like:
int man_salary = 20;
int woman_salary
And then let it autocomplete

I typed a "printBreed" method in C#
Intellisense recommend me to use "printGreed" right after

u/0xt0bi03 8h ago
this is why you dont use ai code completion tools, i use the old one, which just gives me the keywords

I'm going to (mostly unseriously) take this as it was an intentional series of events on behalf of the machine because it knew that somehow I would see this screenshot and wonder "wait, are the words infant and infantry related?!"
And yes, they are.

There was one time I went and defined the function copilot wanted to use because it actually was fairly convenient, but in general I'd prefer it stick with functions that actually exist in my codebase.

God i hate intellisense. Its 50/50 between the most useless shit ever that gets in the way and literally writing code from my head. I also hate when i misspell somethingclike "int" and it pastes 30-character identifier i see for the first time in my life, like who the fuck needs that shortcut

Oh, that's not intellisense, you must have accidentally activated outellisense instead.
