When I'm working with a junior developer I have a rule: never, ever, touch their keyboard or mouse while they are driving.
If I absolutely have to help them make some specific input, I'll spell it out, symbols and all, so that the junior can type it themselves. It takes time, but it's so much easier to remember something when you're the one who typed it out. Besides, even before AI, autocomplete was usually good enough that I rarely had to spell out more than a few letters. :)
- thechao 3y agoYeah — that's what I was doing before AI: clearly spelling out each character, character-by-character. The AI does about 75% of that, so we can skip the 0.5-baud C-over-bongos thing.
