I remember when Jacob Jackson’s (this kid is nothing less of a genius) tabnine project was posted on HN. Codota then bought tabnine and now they renamed themselves after this acquisition. Got me interested what Jacob is doing now. Looks like after his stint at OpenAI this is his new project: https://same.energy/

Thanks for linking it. I love the concept! I was looking for some art for the wall and I can't think of a better way to explore the options when you don't have a specific idea about the result you're after.

Jacob Jackson is awesome and we loved the time we got to work with him. Brilliant dude

My experience with Tabnine was that I loved it when it came out. I loved the fact that I could get full line suggestions without any extra language specific setup (I hop around different languages a lot) but the suggestions became less and less useful over time. In my view this was a degradation of Tabnine but of course I have nothing to back this up. Hearing this backstory does reaffirm my suspicion.

At some point I started using Language Server (mostly Typescript and Python) suggestions alongside Tabnine and it started to feel like it was just getting in the way. In the end I got rid of Tabnine. I haven't tried Co-Pilot yet but may give it a go when I find some time.
