  1. @dimi Copilot is a code generator tool that provides high-quality generated code that makes it easier for developers to create applications faster and with fewer headaches. #CodeGenerators #GitHub #DevelopmentTools

  2. @nixCraft Yeah, I lived through the #CASE (Computer Aided Software Engineering) craze of the 80s and 90. Supposedly, according to my software engineering prof, we'd never have to write a line of code ever again. But the code that the generators spit out from the fancy #UML diagrams was incomprehensible and unmaintainable. Often buggy, too. #AI #CodeGenerators will be just a rehash of that.

    If I understand #CodeGenerators correctly (good chance I don’t), this is similar to what we called #Macros in #C-LISP. Those would be parameterized codes of arbitrary complexity that would substitute new code for the inline macro at either compile time or (less often) at run time. It was a useful way of optimizing the application of patterns depending on the operating environment. Also made code easier to read.
