So much this!

Autocomplete in early versions of IntelliJ IDEA and NetBeans is basically how I learned to really program Java. After a 10 year break from serious coding, it's also how I caught back up :)

Autocomplete in IntelliJ was almost like being psychic. With very little typing, the code just magically appeared on the screen.
