I find myself going back and forth about whether I want all of that stuff. Not having to look up a function template is handy. On the other hand, having my code bouncing all around, and obscured by random pop-ups, is distracting and eyestrain inducing. None of it is touch-screen friendly, though I admit that it's reasonably well designed for keyboard shortcuts.

I'm on the fence about copilot. It's like today's story of Julius, an assistant who is beloved by management, but whose work demands attention and must be corrected. Doing a Google search for something is less "efficient" but I need to take frequent little mental and physical breaks anyway.
