How I started programming differently over the last year. What about you?

An interesting observation: I’ve stopped using the LLM-powered autocomplete in my IDE. At first, it was one of the key features for me. It felt extremely convenient: you start writing a function in your code, and the LLM completes it based on common sense or the context from the open tabs. But the most interesting thing is that back when LLM autocomplete was useful and in demand, I had already written a script that could go through the source files, let me select what I needed, and prepare the context to feed into an LLM chat so it could tell me what to add or fix.
