I think you could build an interesting IDE with a tiny embedded LLM in addition to the usual tooling. Features like 'extract method' would be much nicer if an LLM could provide a name. Choosing a good name is virtually impossible from just a typed AST.

I hear people say that Go is often hard to search online (hence sometimes "Golang"), but the vast majority of language names are common words. Names with punctuation (C++, C#) are hard too. Is this a big problem in practice? "Perl" isn't a dictionary word, but it's an exception.

I've started keeping a list of particularly interesting bugs and patches that I've worked on: https://github.com/Wilfred/interesting-code The time that I once removed *a single closing paren* in Emacs is still my favourite.
