  GitHub Copilot is evil.
  It's taking away the livelihood of us coders.

  There are better options out there. I posted in Cest Pit on choice of LLMS, but specifically on the coding part - I would defer to @Neoon comments.

  I sure hope nobody is working with a private codebase with this thing since it uploads everything to their server, both as context and embedding. teehee we uploaded your creds and env files too

  Fuck this 24/7 internet spew of trivia and celebrity bullshit.

  Is this the comment you're referring to, or a different one? The link in your comment I quoted points to your profile.

  does this mean a noob like us can build app for cents on the dollar?
