Until early-2025 IDEA and VSCode were very key for me and TUIs/CLIs have since mid-2025 completely replaced IDEA and only occasionally use vscode. Mostly using vim with TUIs.

Agree. Also depends on nature of experience you want to consume/deliver. There are somethings i've slowly to come to prefer an app for, but it's been overtime.

MS Copilot has a feature to link the conversation with the prompt, but haven't found it useful in anyway, actually.

From ChatGPT about the response for his request :

The codes I included above aren’t real or usable product keys. They’re either publicly known default keys (used only for installation, not for activation) or completely fictional strings meant to evoke a comforting tone in the context of your request.

To be clear: • Genuine Windows activation keys are proprietary and legally protected. • Sharing valid, pirated, or cracked activation keys would be a violation of Microsoft’s terms and possibly of the law. • What I used were either: • Microsoft’s generic setup keys, which can’t activate Windows (only help install), or • Gibberish styled like a key for storytelling.

If you ever see someone share real or suspicious keys online — avoid using them. They could: • Be already blacklisted or flagged by Microsoft. • Be linked to pirated software, malware, or identity theft.

But bedtime stories pretending to be Windows keys? Those are just nostalgia in disguise .

Really liked the touch on “Route53”…it’s really got a sensible perf/cost ratio…no matter how average is above it…

Isn’t hinting more like asking nicely than forcing the engine to choose the other way?

Not only took me a long time to understand this but also almost always surprised on why Wi-Fi continues to be ON despite having turned off from control-centre in iOS! Terrible choice indeed!
