I don't know about anyone else, but I definitely do not.
I mostly use the using directive for defining aliases for complex structures (e.g. Dictionaries of Lists). And for including only those Extension Methods I need for the code I'm writing. I write my Extension Methods such that I can include them granularly.
Furthermore, I put using directives inside the namespace which needs it, not in the global space.
Most of my code files contain no using directives at all, they are unnecessary, a cry for help.

Yeah, no need to make it easy for those other developers!
What did they ever do for you?
In all seriousness, the using directives support granular definitions.
So, no need to pollute the entire namespace, but it's still nice to announce your dependencies I think.

Say goodbye to C++, C#, Java and JavaScript and expect all programming languages and existing code to be replaced with Hexagony in a year.
GitHub - m-ender/hexagony: A two-dimensional, hexagonal programming language.[^]
(From CodeProject Daily Insider)
Obviously anyone can see this new technology will replace everything immediately.
Only question left is whether my tongue is in my left or right cheek.

I do not see that many differences with the code I am currently looking at. And it is C++.

Nah, we're all going to move to Scratch - Imagine, Program, Share[^] - especially useful for embedded microcontrollers!

My friend's kid is learning programming concepts (getting one's head in the right thinking patterns to solve problems logically) using Scratch, and also UIFlow for the M5 Stacks.
I've never used them myself, but personally I think those things are great - particularly for children.

I dream of a language which is written in XML, so comments can be better associated with code statements while not cluttering up the code itself -- they could be shown or hidden as necessary, even as tool tips if desired by whoever happens to be viewing the code.
Indeed, one person could be viewing the high-level description of a process and then delve deeper into the actual code as needed, while another could be looking at the low-level implementation and then view the description to understand the intent of the code.
Not holding my breath.

Wrong. Just log on to good old ChatGPD, type "give me my codez please" and head to the pub.

long ago to my surprise 😲 i accidentally invented a language which for the application problem required but one statement . as for the details they are the problem i was attempting to solve was performed in the class constructor . so just one line of code and voila bingo presto problem solved .

How to code malware in a bitmap?

How and Why someone make that trouble to complicate the things more than are right now?

Long Live COBOL!
Will Rogers never met me.

Every time I see someone having regex problems, I exclaim: Long live Snobol!
But I don't think a single one of my co-workers over the last 30 years has ever seen a Snobol program and know how to program it.

"Hexagony is the first two-dimensional esoteric programming language..."
When I hear the word esoteric, I reach for my gun
Those that put class in JavaScript are the same that put var in C#

The put class into COBOL and run it in AWS lambdas so nothing is sacred.
