This is an obvious consequence. I don't see how anyone could argue that the output of copilot is not a derivative work of all of its combined inputs. Impossible to navigate from a copyright perspective unless it is only trained on permissive licenses.
Tim Davis@DocSparse

@github copilot, with "public code" blocked, emits large chunks of my copyrighted code, with no attribution, no LGPL license. For example, the simple prompt "sparse matrix transpose, cs_" produces my cs_transpose in CSparse. My code on left, github on right. Not OK.

@SusanPotter Part of it is that the orgs using it are resistant to change and reluctant to incur training costs that would impact large numbers of users. Once they adopt the software, they generally advocate against "improvements" to existing functionality that change the business workflows

My shameful secret is that my fast ramp up to being good at programming and eng management was years spent building overcomplicated things and then dealing with the results

@actinglikecrazy On the JVM, most people start with PDFBox because the license is more liberal, then move to iText if PDFBox can't handle their use cases.

If you want to programmatically produce a PDF, what stack/library you’d go with?

help, what is the current best/easiest way to spin up a long lived container on AWS or GC that serves a websocket through an API gateway with SSL termination What I actually want is long-lived JVM lambdas (cold start not a problem), but I think the max duration is 5 mins

@rtfeldman Here are my off the cuff thoughts: 1. scripting - doesn't control it's API - used to script "other things" 2. interpreted - does not build a native binary - requires an installed runtime system to execute 3. dynamic language - doesn't mean much to me, but I will go with "untyped"

Richard Feldman@rtfeldman·
Consider these three terms for describing programming languages: 1. "scripting language" 2. "interpreted language" 3. "dynamic language" What do you personally think of as the differences between them? Like what makes a language count as 1 or 2 of these but not all 3?

Anyone out there ever do CGI programming prior to 2005? If so, I'm curious: what language did you use?
