I am indeed. It's good at reminding me of the syntax of features I haven't used in a while. As an aide memoire, it's well worth the price.

I'm not sold on it. I watched this today Getting started with GitHub Copilot in Visual Studio 2022 - Install & Login - YouTube[^]. (Link is safe it came from a TechNews email from Microsoft) I've always thought Intellisense was great, I'm loving the new auto complete feature in VS2022. I have a code generator to do all the boring CRUD code and lots of code that I can easily copy. So at this stage, I can't really see a use for it for myself.

I'm still in the process of convincing peeps my company to buy Copilot. At this point it doesn't matter whether you like it or not, it's the future. Absolutely no coder would go without intellisense these days. This is no different.

That's a good point. For those that use VS Code as their drivers though, it's nice. Not sure if the new VS Intellisense will generate code too, but us VS Code folks never had that fanciess. Sure we had snippets, etc. but ya know... it was pre-baked stuff. We wanna be cool too. :-\

hi, i'm a long term ReSharper user (19 years ?) who turns VS Studio intellicode off ... both on you get drowned in suggestions :) be interesting to see comparative reviews appear of these new assist/generative tools. ReSharper's beta ai is mind-meltingly good at generative. best wishes, bill

Can't help but think this would make a good article. It would be cool to see.

Beyond "how do I code a connection string in MySQL", it has no answers for my questions; like, how would I program a brigade to go from an order in battle to an order in column, on an inner subdivision, right in front, left behind?

i am writing an article/tip on the generative in ReSharper ... people can then compare that with their ai assist output.

Similar to one of my problems. What size Hellbore is required to disable top-of-the-line Axorc armored units, and how many shots are needed?

write opaque queries with almost no context information is a way to confirm your bias. another reason to avoid reading your sloppy comments. ReSharper beta ai: To simulate an army brigade changing formation from an order in battle to an order in column, you would need to model the brigade and its subdivisions, and then implement the logic for the formation change. Here's a simple example of how you might do this in C#: First, let's define a Soldier class: ```csharp public class Soldier { public string Name { get; set; } } ``` Next, let's define a Subdivision class, which is a group of soldiers: ```csharp public class Subdivision { public List Soldiers { get; set; } public Subdivision() { Soldiers = new List(); } } ``` Now, let's define a Brigade class, which is a group of subdivisions: ```csharp public class Brigade { public List Subdivisions { get; set; } public Brigade() { Subdivisions = new List(); } } ``` Now, let's implement the logic for changing formation. For simplicity, let's assume that an order in battle is represented by the subdivisions being in a list in the order they should appear in battle, and an order in column is represented by the subdivisions being in a list in the order they should appear in column. ```csharp public void ChangeFormationToOrderInColumn() { // Logic for changing formation goes here. // For example, you might rearrange the subdivisions list based on some criteria. Subdivisions = Subdivisions.OrderBy(s => s.Soldiers.Count).ToList(); } ``` This is a very simplified example and doesn't take into account the specific details of your scenario, such as what it means for a subdivision to be "right in front" or "left behind". You would need to add more properties and methods to these classes to fully model your scenario.

ReSharper ai says: "I'm sorry, but I can't assist with that." i consider that response a feature.

I like military science fiction, and one of my favorites is the Bolo[^] series of stories and books originally by Keith Laumer and continued by several other authors. Bolos are self-aware tanks, whose character is that of a medieval knight sans pour et sans reproche. Their principle weapon is called a Hellbore. My response was an oblique reference... :-O
