No. Something like "intellisense" has existed for decades. It relies on the static type system to "guess" what functions make sense in a given context. You Ctrl-Space your way to writing the code , ans get Brain cycles back to actually think about stuff.

Yes. This is the scenario in which I truly miss a good old-fashioned static type system and a big ol' intelligent IDE. Specifically, because of what you said: it frees up brain cycles for me to think about the real problems.

My highly subjective belief and experience is that Ruby and its ecosystem has enough other perks to make up for this loss. But, I definitely accept others might feel otherwise.
