I have around 10 airtags installed in various places. The amount of peace and anxiety relief it brings me is priceless. And none of these problems are airtag specific. You can buy fairly accurate GPS trackers for about $30 that don't e

Very unlikely! That'll be enough motivation for most OSS projects to move far far away!

The only drawback is....constraints. Autocomplete constrains suggestions to those that are valid or at least valid-adjacent (like it'll use something but auto-import it to make it valid, etc). Copilot fails miserably here and I don&#x2

It's not so much the parts where think hard and implement that perfect feature. It's insanely useful when you have to make sweeping pesky changes. Like a pulling values from a config dict and initializing a bunch of methods from t

Considering how reddit filters down to twitter and instagram and other local social networks, followed by local tabloids and so on, it's entirely reasonable to assume that.

I have not. I am not a foundation project maintainer or have had any direct interactions with the foundation. My understanding mostly comes from following the community. But this is what Rodney Littles is quoted as having said in his interv

There are strings attached to the new location - the maintainers can (in theory) be kicked out of their own repositories.

Au Contraire. From the bylaws posted publicly so far, it seems, they aren't truly independent of each other. Microsoft is the "Founding Member" of the .NET Foundation. They are entitled to appoint an Exec. Director (ED) and t

Is there a point to this...? Or did you just want to crap on GDPR? Not saying it's good or bad. But just...relevance?

Apple may not make a lot of money from these high quality free/cheap apps from small development shops. But indirectly, that quality content is one of the reasons people buy an iOS device over an Android. Crippling that is crippling th

Unit tests with TONS of assertions, cleaned data from form to ORM object, stuff that look look like you're just through a list and doing the same thing over and over. For these, Copilot is great. I wouldn't trust it to do anything

Things cost money. Things that don't cost to buy at least as much as they cost to make, are not sustainable by definition and will be riddled with systemic problems like shortage, rationing, etc.
