At least generators only "create" new things. I just had cursor stick a "private" near the top of my user model, rendering all below methods unusable!

Rails generators were the AI of the past. Type a few things and boom your app works. π

I love the hide white space feature. I wish there was a hide the formatting/lint churn too.
While I'm wishing, how about hiding comments too??

Iβm only about 10 miles from Oxford Georgia and I heard this thing. It sounded like a bunch of monkeys landed on the roof of my house.
A fireball, or a bright meteorite, was seen across the southeastern United States on Thursday and later exploded over Georgia, creating booms heard by residents in the area, according to NASA.
The American Meteor Society said it received more than 160 reports of a fireball sighting from observers in Georgia and South Carolina at 12:25 p.m. ET. The meteor was first seen at an altitude of 48 miles above the town of Oxford, Georgia, moving southwest at 30,000 miles per hour, said Bill Cooke, a lead at NASA's Meteoroid Environment Office.
