    @dmytri @serapath No different than using any code from GitHub or stack overflow. You get a few suggested lines that are straightforward to check. Maybe if it suggests using an npn library that has been compromised. But that's not a copilot issue.

    @Frederic_Fox @githubstatus Same. I'm getting: GitHub Copilot could not connect to server. Extension activation failed: "Thank you for participating in the GitHub Copilot Technical Preview. Your extended access has ended." Even tho I've paid for a year!

    @CFDevelop Okay, that's a good start. Can you send me a link to the project on github let me run it and help you debug the colour issue

    @MostlyEmre @github Got the same on a yearly plan so must be an issue on their side.

    @MostlyEmre @github based on everyone reporting the same error - i think it is down

    @ericabrescia @github 8) Where's my VSCode plug in ???? Anyhow - the TLDR is they did something that's good FOR THEM. And terrible for builders. They made it my problem. That makes me want to build on something where they aren't making it my problem.

    @candidewallet How can people contribute? Do you have github issues for new contributors?

  • aronchick
    David Aronchick (@aronchick) reported

    @ericabrescia @github samples out there to just copy / paste / be inspired. (Indicates lack of uptake). But regardless, the docs offer raw API surface, with very little usable examples (e.g. get all issues on a project and move things that match <X> to a different column). 6) There's very little ...

    @githubstatus there seem to be issues with github copilot at the moment. But nothing is reflected on the status page!

    @githubstatus there seem to be issues with #GitHub #Copilot at the moment. But nothing is reflected on the status page!

    @mubix @github I definitely wouldn’t want to live in any country I ran. I’d be terrible at it… but I might take the gig to gain experience for the next one…

  • arashad
    Ahmad R. Awadallah 🍁 (@arashad) reported

    For some reason @github #Copilot is not working and keeps asking for activating my subscription! I've activated my subscription a while ago, and I just paid my USD$10 2 days ago :(

  • aronchick
    David Aronchick (@aronchick) reported

    @neovintage @github My issue is basically you take such a well understood pattern for literally 15 years with nouns and verbs and interactions (REST) and go back to… SQL (basically)?

  • peteralexbizjak
    Peter Aleksander Bizjak (@peteralexbizjak) reported

    @CFDevelop @piotrmitkowski @VGVentures Would you mind if I link your response in a GitHub issue to the project, so that I don't forget?

    @daniel_levine @jaredpalmer @vercel If you are using Github for deploys, wouldn't this already exist in MR or issues tab?

    Do I know anyone at @github, @GitHubHelp ? #copilot hasn't been working for over a week with error: "Thank you for participating in the GitHub Copilot Technical Preview. Your extended access has ended." Which is annoying because I paid for the extension. #GitHub

    @aronchick @github The docs could use some more examples. My problem with graphql is in the implicit behaviors. I had to poke around a whole bunch to understand what it was going to do before I could get what I wanted. It was frustrating until it wasn't.

  • a_murathe
    0xvagabond.eth (@a_murathe) reported

    @jphackworth42 The list of all recipients was shared on their github as a csv file so yes it's available. The issues is now getting the list of the 205,196(from your Dune dashboard) that have claimed and highlight the duplicates(to be marked as claimed) using excel or any other tool.

    @rectus_sa Heyo, Im trying to install this buuut its not working. I opened an issue on github, LMK if you are able to help!

  • aronchick
    David Aronchick (@aronchick) reported

    @adamhjk @neovintage @github Ah - but that’s the problem! As a query language/tool - fine. But they’ve specifically not implemented support for any features via REST - so mutation/etc must be done via GraphQL which is very gross imo.

    @MNateShyamalan Tbf when I worked at local company they didn't use github but instead had like a local repository with the live server and the test server. Actually now that I think about it, it's strange how little my jobs have used GitHub.

  • aronchick
    David Aronchick (@aronchick) reported

    @arnaudporterie @github I just want the standard stuff - everything the REST API did (query projects, change issues, migrate stuff, produce dashboards) - it’s like tearing my fingernails out

    @b_fiive @github I will caveat this by saying it could be GitHub and my need to move on to literally any problem and GitHubs migration is killing me
