Reduced my thoughts on Copilot+ PC, as announced, to a piece for Forbes.
TLDR: Also we should think about compliance with things like subpoenas and how completely can anything ever be deleted with such a system.
The more I think about it, the less this seems like a well thought-out product for pros. Dreamed up by coders that already have had their life’s work sucked up by GPT through #Github.
Is it just me, or has Microsoft gone completely crazy? They are implementing spyware that takes screenshots every second and forcing AI integration. Why would anyone willingly purchase this? Anyone with experience in computer or information security knows that it is a bad idea, even if it is locally done. Just don't do it. Yet, here we are, and they are doubling down on this idea. https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2024/05/microsofts-new-recall-feature-will-record-everything-you-do-on-your-pc/#privacy#security
How come I can't allow #github actions to push to a protected branch? I can't be the only person who wants a #GithubAction to update a changelog, then push it to the main branch.
Wenn dies unter Umständen "unauffindbar" Fehler und zu umständlichen Code erzeugt, sprich Mathematik "seltsam" umgetzt. Es ist ein Hilfsmittel aber sehe nur ich es so oder ist meine Kritik übertrieben?
»Softwareentwicklung – Github Copilot wird direkt in Visual Studio integriert:
Microsoft Build 2024 Mit Visual Studio 17.10 kommen diverse Neuerungen. Unter anderem kann Github Copilot bei der Generierung von Code helfen.«
Starting the day by deleting around 200 spam GitHub Discussions. Always a pleasure...
If GitHub's looking for AI topics: it could really help maintainers by spotting spam, blocking accounts, and automatically deleting discussions/issues so they have nothing to do.
My plan for this afternoon was to finish my centralized reusable #GitHub Actions workflows for releasing projects. But some outage is keeping me waiting 😅. (Can even see the self hosted runners spin up but not getting any jobs.)
The binary extracts the assets from the rom to play, all legal.
At Desktop mode, I simply downloaded the Linux binary from GitHub, got the USA no-intro rom of my game, added a the #github binary as a non-steam game. At the gaming mode, I forced compatibility on Linux runtime.
Deck controllers are pre-configured, all buttons work, runs at native widescreen 720p@60hz
Important update for #GitHub#Action users! Coming June 50% of the actions on the Marketplace will no longer work without adjustments. If you have ignored the warnings, it will start breaking now 💁♂️.
This is a small bugfix release, fixing some balance and spend/receiving issues (mostly reduced confusion + workaround for some broken Android keyboard apps that don't correctly listen to the list of allowed symbols).
It also contains various translation updates.
The update is available on #GitHub right now and will most likely be available on #IzzyOnDroid within 24 hours. It has also been sent to Google Play Open Testing for review.
Is there a better way to create new cards on #Github project boards? The way I know how to do it involves five clicks and three different steps saving things. Surely there's a better path?
Cisco Talos has developed a fuzzer that enables us to test macOS software on commodity hardware. We released this tool on #GitHub this morning, and you can learn more about it here http://cs.co/6019dusi3
food for thought when giving feedback to contributors.
the author reflects on giving feedback in OSS vs corporate.
OSS, you invest in the ppl and give lots of feedback. not in corporate.
and I like this takeaway:
> And so, I’ve learned that a person can absorb only about one piece of feedback per interaction, and then only if it’s labeled very specifically as feedback with the best intentions, and wrapped delicately in a feedback sandwich.
Recently I found this developer who has published dozens of small, useful extensions for firefox. Nothing groundbreaking that I know of but everything looks to have been made with care to efficiency and minimal permissions to do one thing well. Each has its own github repo where the developer responds to issues....
La nouvelle version de l’app mobile GitHub embarque le service « Copilot Chat », mais ne propose toujours pas le minimum de fonctionnalités pour gérer une organisation de plus de 300 dépôts. 🙄
Et la version web mobile est une plaie à utiliser.
Kennt ihr #Git? Auch wenn ihr kein(e) Programmierer:in seid, dann seid ihr bestimmt schonmal auf #GitHub, #GitLab o.Ä. gestoßen. Auch als Designer:in, Maker:in, Texter:in oder einfach nur zum Projektmanagement spielen Git und die dazugehörigen Plattformen heute eine große Rolle. Wir erklären Git/GitHub/GitLab für Nicht-Programmierer in einem dreistündigen Workshop am Sonntag, den 19. Mai. https://www.welcome-werkstatt.de/veranstaltungen/git-fuer-nicht-programmierer
