I'm sure it won't be perfect but an amazing step forward in the evolution of programming languages


I could be wrong, but I think (minus editor commands) much of this can be emulated in existing Copilot by writing a comment symbol followed by natural language. I wouldn't even be surprised if under the hood "Hey, GitHub!" is basically doing exactly that with the voice input.

The parent post was claiming the cities were not made for cars, and that is accurate. Dutch cities grew organically over the centuries, if there was any design it would have been for pedestrians, horse drawn boats and carriages.
