Right but, were you really not using snippets and templates before LLMs? Company? Helm? Whatever vi uses that's like company and helm? Haven't IDEs written fun

Company? Helm? Whatever vi uses that's like company and helm? Haven't IDEs written function calls for you for like decades now?
- sph 7mo agoI very rarely use autocomplete on Emacs, except hippie-expand. I have yasnippet installed but I have never used it. I just checked, it's not even key bound to anything. I work on greenfield projects so I see my fair share of boilerplate, but honestly, it's just a minute part of work that's almost meditative to write a little bit of trivial code (i.e. a function signature) in between sessions of hard thinking. Writing boilerplate is very far down the list of things I seek to optimize. Also I don't use LLM.
