    GitHub Actions is legit cool. Loads of tiny little actions that e.g. make review suggestions to apply style formatter, or fix doctests after output changes, or notify slack, or check some little thing all these little things. Tiny, innumerable quality of life improvements.

  • alopex_ii alopex @ abolish police (@alopex_ii) reported

    Doubly so for Jira tickets. Triply so for GitHub issues, which are still somehow sent to me regularly despite no designers ever having access to the company GitHub

  • hipsterelectron danny mcClanahan (@hipsterelectron) reported

    @miguelraz_ @tidelift which is exponentially more efficient than recreating that (poorly) everywhere else. github copilot allows you to introduce confusing errors you have to fix later since they don’t consult the devs themselves—tidelift allows you to instead *remove* cruft

  • JayZuccarelli Eugenio Zuccarelli (@JayZuccarelli) reported

    One of the biggest problems of GitHub Copilot is that it might have been trained on copyrighted code. It's an interesting example of the many difficulties that there are with privacy in AI. #Github #ArtificialIntelligence

  • joesakthatsme joe sak (@joesakthatsme) reported

    @code @github i get error trying to download vs code

  • XorNinja Thái "thaidn" Dương (@XorNinja) reported

    @LeaKissner @SchmiegSophie We haven't. Based on feedback from GitHub, the mailing list and StackOverflow, the most common issues are: 1/ People don't understand associated data 2/ People use a wrong primitive (i.e., thinking HybridEncryption provides authenticity, despite warnings in the doc)

  • simongbengtsson Simon Bengtsson (@simongbengtsson) reported

    @SilasDue99 Glad to here it has been useful! Can you file a new issue on github where we can troubleshoot it in more detail? Link to github is available on the eventcal website.

  • ProSegFaulter Zura (@ProSegFaulter) reported

    @jimregan Okey I thought u just didn' update kaggle kernels. Sure I will create an issue just in case I didnt bored u to death, I am gonna ask 1 question. My gan results seems to have 1.4 training loss at min does it tell u anything or should I just move on github issues?

  • Rajdeep2197 Rajdeep (@Rajdeep2197) reported

    @tobiasfenster Hey, your extension AlRunner, is not exporting all errors in VS Code v1.58.0. Raised a Issue in GitHub. Can you please have a look?

  • StarTrek_Lt BHSci_, Python, R & Graphical Art 🦄🇨🇦🌈 (@StarTrek_Lt) reported

    @NoraDotCodes the TL;DR : copying everyone's code, spitting it out while using copilot despite license == problem (ethic | legal). ToS allow for GitHub/MS to use code despite how you feel about it. -- is this right?

  • simbadmarin0 SimbadMarino (@simbadmarin0) reported

    @rogdzz Fill a github issue, we can all cote it and comment it to push the tron devs to do something about it :) . @Tronfoundation is there a workaround / easy to use solution for this problem yet or in plans?

  • 0xGKBRK Leo (@0xGKBRK) reported

    It's fun to watch people dance around the issues with GitHub's Copilot. The same people that say "It can't violate copyright, it is just a tool." also chant "If a human learns from code, it's not a violation.". So what is it, is Copilot a tool or an intelligent being that learns?

  • LostSemicolon Spud (ꈍ ꒳ ꈍ✿) (@LostSemicolon) reported

    I typically don't ping youtubers but, @leonardjfrench, any interest in covering the current GitHub Copilot goings on? Seems like an endlessly fascinating issue. Lots of takes going around if copilot is even a derivative work or if its fair use...

  • SeanTAllen ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ (@SeanTAllen) reported

    @norootcause They are pretty bad. Not quite as bad a the "only conversation stream only" tools like GitHub issues.

  • PwnySlaystation Modus Pwnens (@PwnySlaystation) reported

    @catovitch I had this issue with the ******* windows terminal. I got tired of downloading from github every time there was an update, so I figured I'd install it from the store. Half the time it says I'm not licensed, sometimes it says it's not even installed, and tries to isntall again

  • nihilistMTA Nihilist MTA (@nihilistMTA) reported

    There is no A train service between Inwood-207 St and 181 St because github was down. don't ask.

  • kevin_zakka Kevin Zakka (@kevin_zakka) reported

    @viktor_m81 @jackyliang42 I'm confused though, is there a Github link anywhere? The only thing I've seen is a "sign in"/"join now" button on the nvidia website.

  • LARamon2 L.A. Ramon (@LARamon2) reported

    @CryptoScorpion3 @CryptoD_N @EqualizerFlash I’ve been requesting a GitHub since it launched…it has caused me to wait before going “Recklessly” into this project. No team interaction or frequent GitHub is a problem for me. I like the comment about an “800% inflation in 1 year is not good for investors” I agree ☝🏾

  • ssylvan Sebastian Sylvan (@ssylvan) reported

    @Jonathan_Blow Maybe things have changed, but when I was at MS buying a new license would be a slow/difficult process (and sounds like github won't even let them look at the code to know if it's useful). I think I probably would've gone with my own implementation too just to avoid the hassle.

  • mcclure111 mcc (@mcclure111) reported

    Anyway copyright muddles aside, I think Github Copilot is solving the wrong problem. Instead of autocomplete, what it ought to let you do is write the tests and types for your program and it randomly generates code until the tests pass

  • masonremaley Mason Remaley (@masonremaley) reported

    @sh_reya The issue here is that, apparently, GitHub didn’t even consider whether projects they used for training had compatible licenses or not—

  • jahskee Jaison Francisco (@jahskee) reported

    I knew that checkin will cause me trouble and the names are all coincidence winston and master and lock package an npm package and github terms where i was also horrified when i look at it. Why will i put myself into trouble? Only God knows I have no negative intentions.

  • Visionary_Nic Rob (@Visionary_Nic) reported

    @rorysmichaels @DefiSafety @ShytoshiKusama The thing about not publicly displaying your mainnet addresses (ex: MasterChef) is that you’re not letting the public look at your main software infrastructure. This is a big safety and transparency issue. They also do not have a public GitHub. They’re being anti-transparent.

  • dari0x Dario👨‍🚀 (@dari0x) reported

    @nixcraft Lol where's the problem. The code is anyway lying around on Github.

  • funnuion_son Degenerot Monke, CFA, 🍌🚀🌝 (@funnuion_son) reported

    @elonmusk @newscientist I’ve never seen an error on GitHub code, bruh

  • JakeMainwaring Jake Mainwaring (@JakeMainwaring) reported

    @sethrosen Don't forget 3b: spot the error and wonder who could have possibly made such a simple mistake. Check GitHub and realize it was you

  • ryiron Ryan Mallon (@ryiron) reported

    Copilot being trained on all github repos means it has been trained on: * Hobbyist code * Reverse engineering dumps * Malware * Code written decades ago Licensing issues aside, in many cases copilot has been learning from code that is not suited to modern production code bases.

  • R32Code CodyB. :|: (@R32Code) reported

    @github Why does your editor blow out all my markdown files it really upsets me that I took all this time then have to fix it all again on your website. Get back to me to solve this issue. Thanks. #Markdown

  • _msw_ Matthew S. Wilson (@_msw_) reported

    @xeraa @rjurney @elastic I'm super happy that this is now part of Apache Lucene, rather than a proprietary (licensed) feature of Elasticsearch like it was originally planned, according to the GitHub issue linked earlier...

  • costerad 🕸️ Adam Coster 🎮 (@costerad) reported

    I have received my GitHub Copilot invite. Time to find out just how esoteric my problems are.
