This thread emerged as github copilot was taking the market. I’m almost certain it should or could be read in the upcoming lawsuit(s).
I’m loving this thread. There’s some nuts and bolts stuff being talked about here with Nate - a GitHub copilot team member leading the discussion

Welcome @GeoffreyHuntley to the debate! This is kinda what we had been thinking when we made our VScode video last year, no businesses should not be allowed to build products designed to tank markets like this.

A couple of moments ago, I finished reading the article by Rob O'Leary about the pervasive data collection done by Visual Studio Code. Now that I'm no longer an employee at Gitpod, I'm finally able...

I thought this was the whole point of being on Twitter?

Outside of docker, what exists to flip on ten virtualizes servers in local that would allow for any dev on the team to stand up the env in a few minutes? Bonus points if it flies onto IaaS of choice and seamlessly deploys!

Why isn’t the decentralized future of the web just a return to personal websites built with easy-to-use tools?

MS did this. “For the SFC, the break with GitHub was precipitated by the general availability of GitHub Copilot, an AI coding assistant tool. GitHub's decision to release a for-profit product derived from FOSS code, the SFC said, is "too much to bear."” https://t.co/cdQJ8puGoz

What would it look like if every time we contributed content to the web in the form of writing or uploaded media we minted that item and ALL derivative works were tracked. Is that the future NFT promises? Is that what’s actually delivering?

Remember this as you watch content trend on this platform… people do lie on the internet.
⬙ With zero experience, he claimed he has got so much work. He started sharing roadmaps. Started mocking Web2. He became a sensational face. ⬖ People joining Web3 started believing him because of those threads. ⬘ Recently we caught him copying others' content.

An amazing and interesting journey. Swapna is breaking down some viral growth patterns that were fishy. But here’s the rub—it’s all fishy all the way down. I’d love Musk to address these patterns as he negotiates with Twitter (a gameable platform) based on “bot” activity.
A Twitter Profile rose to 30K followers in just 2 months. After he was caught doing wrong acts, his journey ended abruptly. The entire community is surprised, how a person could fake to 30K people? A case-by-case study and, future remedies. Read further if you are interested. 🧵

Use the framework and language you love; don’t worry about what’s popular.
I wouldn’t put much stock in the “popularity” of Ruby or Rails in the Stack Overflow surveys…our community has been underrepresented for the last several years, so this year is no exception. (Honestly I almost never use SO.)

Does this reject the hash if it matches or send it down the line for obfuscation? I’m shaky on how this specific system works but if it looks like it copied code because it *did* copy code. What next? Inferior result? Or just change some bits and off to the client?
@gregdizzia @jonny_link There's even specific logic that checks what the ML spits out against hashes of what was in the training set to make sure we don't accidentally even *look* like we're copying code.

@NateTheFinch @gregdizzia @jonny_link So maybe you should talk to a copyright lawyer about how you're training your model on other people's copyrighted material and get *them* to explain to us how that's not a derived work, because what you've described so far is very much that.

How many Microsoft monopolies or predatory plays have you seen? I’ll get the list started : — GitHub copilot plagiarizing the world — Microsoft VScode rolling free like antitrust laws don’t exist
