Software Engineers, do you use Github Copilot on the job?
Why? Why not?
No. I do for personal projects though. It’s mostly only good for boilerplate and unit tests.
Nah it can’t understand production level code. It’s an overrated hype on the internet for simple apps.
ChatGPT is better
It's like a really annoying autocomplete from what I've heard
What if it was auto-write, auto-fix and auto-deploy?
It's annoying in the sense that people just turn it off
Yes. I would say its an advance autocomplete and overall it has increased my speed of shipping code
Got it recently. It's OK. Forced me to write docstrings to trigger smarter code gen, which is a good externality. So far it's written one line of code that made me stop and think... yeah that's better than I would have written it.
It makes everything so much faster
Policy mostly takes it off the table
What’s the policy?
