Alright, this going to be interesting. Pass me the pop corn. It's definitely a welcome move in any case.
Indeed, this is going to be "interesting" in educational situations... I guess that'll at least push into richer assignments.
Very interesting thought experiment around Copilot's legality. I'd love to see that happen and see what the outcome would be.
There's really a problem with GitHub overall... and the Copilot move is definitely worrying. Not Copilot by itself really but how they just don't want to tackle the questions it raises.
I don't like GitHub Actions much if at all. Still, this is a nice curated list which can come in handy when having to work with it.
I think this is the best analysis about GitHub Copilot so far. Clearly using it in production today carries lots of risks. It might improve in the future but only marginally and likely with quite some effort. Not sure it'll pass the threshold to be anything else than a funny toy.
Yes, the permission model of GitHub gives me the creeps as well... A couple of the examples given in there are really problematic and need to be addressed. This is even more important seeing the amount of stuff hosted on GitHub nowadays.
