No, it's literally just compressing small files without training zstd dict or plugging external dictionaries (not counting the built-in one that brotli has). Especially for English text, brotli at the same speed as zstd gives better re

Yes, but it reviews not only PRs in your repos, it also reviews any PRs you create on any repo and marks these as if you requested the review. Unacceptable. You can disable it here: https://github.com/settings/copilot&#

It's fast, easy to implement, has very concise code, takes any key length up to 256 bytes, comes from a famous cryptographer, and there weren't a lot of alternatives.

I sent a pull request to an open source project and GitHub added Copilot to review it, saying I invited it to review, embarrassing me. It then spit out some nonsense. Turns out this is controlled by a switch somewhere, which was enabled.

Ackchyually, TextEdit now has built-in AI as any other native macOS textview control if Apple Intelligence is turned on. It even autocompletes your sentences. It also likes to save to iCloud by default if you're signed in.

While you can setup passkeys with YubiKey, the most common intended use case is key pairs that are synchable via your Apple/Google/password manager account. So, once you add a passkey, you'll be able to sign in on mobile wit

This wasn't exactly the case before Go 1.0 -- it changed quite rapidly, although in a less fundamental way (for example, removing semicolons, changing error types, etc.), and they usually provided an option to transform code automatica

How is that different from a passkey's private key, apart from being less secure? It's literally something like hnkTKS7h2WCOBr3CxSKM51cSVKSkiKOSlQsMhtRZ0CU stored in the password manager.
