- A frustrating side effect of search becoming "smarter" in general is that we seem to have lost the capability to just match on a substring. Across the various search boxes I use daily (apple spotlight, google search, github search) they all now fail to find "bar" in "foobar"
- I've recently had to write a significant amount of code in the tools that I use for making videos - with no auto complete, no syntax highlighting, no error squiggles, nothing. And I've noticed that the next time I write actual code, I'm way more likely to 1 shot it correctly.
