  • I heard a similar story from a friend of mine, that the c-levels at his office only wanted to achieve faster development rather than proper development. And he was worried because the system built by the devs team had become bigger and complex, and he didn't know how to track down bugs in the source code.

  • Would love that, but it's a hard task, since telemetry is baked into Android OS, not to mention in almost all apps in the Play Store.

  • You can use Briar, BitChat, or Bridgefy to communicate, without having internet connections. I've only tried Briar, which works with cell networks, wifi, also bluetooth.

  • I've tried it on PipePipe, and the results are the same. I don't think you'll find it, because there are no comparison videos without AI slop.

  • I would, but it's not possible since I don't have millions of dollars in my savings account.

    Let us git rid of it, angry GitHub users say of forced Copilot features

    Jump

  • it might work just don't delete your github account, since they have another baclup.

    Just keep it and do a few commits a year at least to make sure your code can't be used.

  • Just accept that it's bad and go somewhere else;

    before leaving github, it is better for them to ensure that their code on github cannot be used to train AI.

    Embrace, Extend, Extinguish

    Microsoft’s Copilot push isn’t strategy, it’s the old embrace, extend, extinguish play dressed up in “AI” robes. GitHub was acquired to embrace developers. Copilot is the extend phase: saturating every workflow with unasked-for AI noise, from issues to pull requests to editors. The extinguish part is already visible - trust in GitHub is collapsing, and the very maintainers who underpin Microsoft’s ecosystem are moving to other platforms.

    On earnings calls, this is presented as “momentum”. In reality, it’s forced adoption: a hostile takeover of developer experience. When customers explicitly ask for an off switch and leadership ignores them, that’s not innovation - it’s managerial negligence. Any competent operator knows that coercion isn’t growth, it’s decay.

    GitHub’s competitive advantage was never a Copilot sidebar, it was trust and network effects. Those are finite assets, and they’re being burned for vanity metrics. The result? A platform that once symbolised collaboration now feels like adware, and developers - the same ones whose code powers Azure and every Microsoft AI demo - are signalling they’re done.

    Shareholders should be asking a simple question: what is the long-term value of poisoning the well you drink from? Copilot may inflate short-term KPIs, but the cost is strategic: erosion of goodwill, flight of open-source projects, and reputational damage that no amount of AI rebranding can fix.

    I agree with the first paragraph, this is just another M$ EEE. Utilizing source codes on github to train their AI to be smarter in coding. So they can promote vibe coding to people with a little or no experience in coding.

  • The biggest problem is that M$ has had upperhand in big corpos and governments for a long time, Active Directory is their weapon.

  • In large companies and governments, these kinds of decisions are made by IT Directors and Politicians and often they are just average users who are not tech savvy.
