After using Copilot seriously for a few weeks, I can't believe they charge for it. It's really awful. It shows glimpses of being useful but rarely delivers usable code.

If your org uses Microsoft products, typically a Teams license is baked in (or at least was at some point). So when it comes to choosing a better tool vs Teams it is an easy decision for the bean counters - we're already paying for Tea

Teams is always pretty bad, I noticed slightly worse service/message duplication/call drops today. If it weren't for MS being a monopoly I doubt we'd use it

It is a fact that Kremlin sponsored psyops campaigns worked to hinder her candidacy. The Mueller report laid this out in detail. To answer your question, I think they were wondering if this would make it more difficult for Russian groups to

Swift Vapor is really nice but Kotlin is way better supported, the DSL available for writing HTML using Ktor is much nicer than those available for Swift, for example. I would love if more folks would ship Swift backends, but JVM folks movi

I like both Kotlin and Swift but much prefer Swift as a language. That said, I don't disagree that if Google backed it properly (seems unlikely now, considering they just fired the guy who led Guava/Guice, for example), it would d

No respectable person took idiotic politicians who claimed otherwise seriously. It is sad the economist had to put an article out on this topic.

I'm not sure it works out that way in practice. I use YouTube Music primarily, and I used to buy music from Google Play on occasion, but since they've gone all in on streaming, I can't even purchase lossless audio from them a

All in all we need more of this, rather than the bland milquetoast garbage we are spoonfed by media. The insurrection attempt is a huge deal that is being treated with kid gloves. What in Baker's proposal specifically do you disagree w

My 2016 Model S has had this happen a few times. I have even upgraded to the new computer (so the touch screen no longer feels like a Motorola Xoom), and I occasionally get this issue - but it's much rarer today than it was pre-upgrade

Tesla isn't. Which is really frustrating because the voice control in the Tesla does not work reliably (maybe functions 20% of the time, and that's _if_ the button on the steering wheel to start it works - usually that fails to re

Lucky you, a month out of warranty mine had an issue that was $1000 to fix. It was, IMO, clearly a manufacturing defect they should have handled but did not. It was really fun being stuck at a grocery store with my infant in below-freezing

This attitude is baffling to me. Android is clearly open source. Go build it yourself, it isn't terribly difficult.

I agree with most of this but the naming of "autopilot" seems fine. Nobody expects commercial aircraft to fly on autopilot without a pilot's supervision, the same _should_ be true of Tesla vehicles (especially considering the

In my experience this is, unfortunately, true. I see it from both sides and would prefer the native implementations myself, but I've never worked with a customer who agrees.

Base or with bonuses? I find it hard to get roles in the midwest (large metro in Ohio) clearing 200k, though sometimes bonuses get you up there.
