I had to log back in just to thank you for this link. I've encountered these sites before, and told people about them, but this is just such a perfect chef's kiss example. Sheer perfection.
That link is... really something - it actually gets better and better the further down you go.
By "better", I mean more absurd, shocking and funny :)

when we first built Tabnine we had confidence percentages next to suggestions. Do you think this would help?
In my opinion it's probably not worth adding unless the highest-confidence suggestion for a particular completion is significantly lower than average. So it informs you when it's especially uncertain and doesn't have anything better to offer, but that's it.
How has tabnine been responding to the development of Copilot? I've looked into it and the most enticing feature to me is the ability to opt out of it using your own code to train (not even sure if that's a correct interpretation)
However it's even more expensive than copilot...
A humorous example: https://cookingflavr.com/should-you-feed-orioles-all-summer/
Human pair programmers will signal when they're not sure about something. A code generator will not.
