Ask HN: Have you started to use "->" when you type after working with LLMs?

I work with CC every day at work and Cursor for personal projects. I have seemingly unconsciously started to use "->" ALL THE TIME when I type.

Instead of "For example," I will "For example ->". Instead of "Confirm the logic: A, B, C" I will "Confirm the logic -> A, B, C".

I think it's because (on my keyboard at least) it feels more natural to "->" than move my hand to ",". And I think that when talking with a LLM, you want to quickly chain thoughts... or something?!

Curious to know if lots of time spent talking to LLMs is changing how you write messages.

    -> I don't think I used that in anything but C++ and I use LLMs a lot
