Just out of curiosity. I have no moral stance on it, if a tool works for you I'm definitely not judging anyone for using it. Do whatever you can to get your work done!

I tried using it for coding couple of times and it wasn't very helpful. For simple stuff it's not much faster than looking at the docs directly. It's kind of a nice interface for them but it's nothing revolutionary. And it's not really much faster then just checking on ddg. For more complex things it often skips steps, references outdated libraries or just gives wrong answers.
