Copilot is so strange for me, I use it, but it deeply conflicts with the way I code.

As I type the code I get a feeling if I like it, I also pretend to use it even when its unfinished, kind of like playing a game. Even if I spent a lot of time thinking about what I am going to write, until it exists and I play with the code, I don't know if its good.

Now Copilot writes so much code, even if it exactly what I was going to type, I kind of lost the intuition, and I hate it.

So I just enable it when I do things that I don't consider programming anymore.

I still think it is absolutely amazing tech though, and I know it will get better and better, and at some point it will be hard to not use it, but I really enjoy playing with the code as I write it.
