With the GitHub Copilot SDK, you can add the same AI that powers Copilot Chat to your own applications. To test this out, @acolombiadev integrated the Copilot SDK into a React Native app to generate AI-powered issue summaries, with production patterns for graceful degradation and caching. Here's how she did it. 👇 github.blog/ai-and-ml/gith…

I grabbed my Github Copilot token usage using an extension. I spent $20 more on Copilot than Anthropic API. MS: "Pay us 7.5x." Us: "No, older model is fine" MS: "We've removed it. If you cancel you can't come back. 7.5x rate is 'promotional' until April 30th." #copilot #github

BEWARE @Microsoft / @github cut Opus 4.6 from Copilot because people refused to pay 7.5x for 4.7. Simple as that - don't buy into their "We want your usage limits to go further" bullshit. If your answer is "I'll use ChatGPT 5.4 over 5.5 at 7.5x" they will do it again. Don't pay.

@msdev @code You posted this, saw people saying "We won't pay 7.5x for this, just gonna use Opus 4.6" and promptly REMOVED Opus 4.6. You did this under the guise of "we love our people and want to make their usage limits go further." I BEG OF YOU explain how 7.5x usage rates achieve that?

Claude Opus 4.7 is now generally available and rolling out in GitHub Copilot. Try it out in @code or Copilot CLI.

@shogozyt We really need to find a @YouTube alternative for creators. It's LONG past "Give them a chance to fix this." They're too big to fail, and they do not give a fuck how bad AI moderation is, because it saves a few pennies.

This is the DM YouTube sent me. I want to say I truly appreciate everything everyone did for me, but it looks like I'm not going to get this resolved. I won't forget what you did to try to help get my channel back. Seriously, just thank you so much. Best 10 years of my life.

@Microsoft Not a single person alive has asked you for this. Outside of the bubble of your leadership sucking each others dicks and saying this is a great feature, everyone fucking DESPISES you hiding AI functionality on their machines. Fuck off, Everyone

@currys My favourite workout must clearly be running after your support staff to fulfill an order and being repeatedly told "just wait 48 hours" until the problem goes away on its own, I guess. Before you tell me to reach out, you already did, and you don't respond there either.

@CarlHayes2 @FootySmith252 @BasilTheGreat @grok And how will they gauge whether or not you watch BBC content on YouTube? There are two options: 1. YouTube will automatically make this data available to them remotely (doubtful, would be a bad look for Google) 2. They will demand access to internet history. Both oversteps.

@FootySmith252 @BasilTheGreat @grok It will probably include YouTube only if you watch BBC content they put on there. Currently you need it for live content from a TV channel on there (sky news etc). Apart from that, it won't change to include all of YouTube.

@grok @FootySmith252 @BasilTheGreat The BBC has a history of pushing TV licenses in increasingly threatening and forceful ways. They are snakes in the grass, who try to threaten people who don't need licenses into getting them anyways. Whether or not they've SAID they will do this, what is the likelihood?

No, the BBC can't charge a license fee for watching YouTube in general. The TV license applies to live broadcasts and iPlayer in the UK. This deal involves producing ad-supported content for YouTube (ads abroad only), but no reports indicate it extends licensing to the platform. It's aimed at reaching younger viewers, not regulating YouTube access.

@PirateSoftware @Simon_Hypixel This is awesome news. I'd assume (given that you worked at Blizzard) you'd have just told riot to hand it over. P.S. No one likes you. Fuck off.

@JohnPassfield This is fascinating. Is there any custom tooling being used for RotAQ, or is it just the base game engine's tools?

I found the JOKER editor used for Amazon Queen (updated to handle 3D). This was being used to make our next adventure game called Stereo Jack. Sadly it didn't see the light of day due to the publisher losing interest in adventure games (this was 1995). #adventuregames
