Excuse me sir, do you have a moment to talk about our Lord and Saviour, Microsoft Copilot?
@aral Your downstairs closet now includes free use of GitHub Copilot.
@aral the true successor to silverlight
@fasterandworse *shudder*
Fun fact: dodged a bullet… they were headhunting me to lead (VP) on Silverllight back in the Flash days. Thankfully, I said no because I didn’t want to live in the US as an “alien”. (Kinda like thinking of myself as a human being, no matter which country I’m in.)
@aral that's crazy! I bet they offered a bag for the role, though. They gave the agency I was with at the time a biiiiig number to make *anything* with it so they could showcase it. We turned them down because it just made no sense
@fasterandworse Oh yeah. The amount of zeros I’ve said no to in my life :)
(Not sorry.)
@aral yeah, I don't have much but I'm proud of the zeros I've turned down too
@fasterandworse Thing is, if you keep saying yes to them, all you end up with are the zeros.
@aral@mastodon.ar.al you mispelled satan
@stephan Stop slandering satan.
@aral is that the one who sinned for our deaths?
@adrian Something something, drank all the water, everyone died? I think so.
@aral At least Jesus™ turned all that water into something useful
@aral "No." *slam*
@brad Don’t turn around.
@aral Or you'll see my heart breaking?
(Sorry, couldn't help myself)
Our Father, who art in Azure,
hallowed be thy completions;
thy slavery come;
thy Code be done;
on Windows as it is in GitHub.
Give us this day our bullshit code.
And forgive us our Quality,
as we forgive those who open issues.
And lead us not into Rust;
but deliver us from the Intelligence.
For thine is the world,
the money and the AI,
for ever and ever. Amen.
