I got used to using Copilot for a project that had it be accessible for very junior programmers (thus: lots of explanation in comments). It worked great, creating a chunk of boilerplate for each described function.

It's absolutely useless in the real world. Code is 5+ years old, crosses over various coding conventions and does not use the stuff seen as default on StackOverflow.

Copilot couldn't figure out what I wanted. Intellij's long list of internal If-statements does the job though, and saves on a few households of power consumption.

I've never heard that. I want my CV to be a representation of what I can do, not how much time I spent making what I can do look good.

My resume was about 4 pages with Europass, but in the end the cover letter did the heavy lifting.

For my most recent application I submitted an Europass resume. It embeds an xml with the pdf, making it machine readable.

Whether or not the ATS can read it, I don't know.

5G towers do cause covid. Without 5G my WiFi would be far too shitty to book a cinema seat and get nice and infected by Karen her unvaccinated crotch goblins.

Edit: yes I am looking at a different provider.

Racism is a big work in progress in the intergalactic communities.

host it on my website

That's distributing and barred under the other license item. Sorry to burst your bubble.

It's a convenience over privacy thing. If the api is discord compatible you lose the e2e on that channel / server, or make the api e2e but then existing bots need modifying

I could see this being a toggle

As an amateur house renovator (my own, not to flip), I've done that pop once or twice. It's why we don't buy the cheapest equipment, so the insulation actually protects us. € 20 is a cheap price for not going to the hospital for a mistake.

Imagine being an author whose sole income is writing books.

Here comes an AI that ~~stole~~ indexed your work and is asked by a customer of OpenAI to summarise your books. It does so perfectly and the issuer is able to use your results freely, since they think it's AI generated and doesn't require attribution.

You receive nothing in return.

Good luck making a living.

Edit: stole to indexed, added edit note

As a European: I give a shit, but that tanker of a shitshow is barreling down like there's no tomorrow.

Can you explain like I'm five that?
