    I use it occasionally. Recently I used it to convert a written specification in a document to a java object. And it was like 95% correct - but having to manually double check everything and fix the errors eliminated much of the time savings.

    However that’s a very ideal use case. Most often I forget it exists.

      I use it a fair bit. Mind, it’s something like formating a giant json stdout into something I want to read…

      I do find it’s useful for sketching out an outline In pseudo code.

    I’m fine with searching stack exchange. It’s much more useful. More info, more options, more understanding.

    I use it as second last resort, and in those times, it did worked out. I had to test, verify, and make changes. Even so, I avoid using them.
