I enjoy working with coding agents, and they speed up several of my tasks (some of which I totally enjoyed doing, and some of which I never enjoyed having to do) tremendously, I consider them very helpful. But boy, they have zero understanding, and they don't even know so often.

Hey @GeminiApp can you pls add an option to turn a temporary chat into a normal one? I often start chats which I intended to dispose but turn out to be super interesting.
A button to export a full chat to markdown would be cool but I guess that's being excluded intentionally?

Sergey Brin attended a panel discussion at Stanford and didn't read the fine print😀

I understand agentic coding tools are at times rushed out the door but I fail to understand how someone thought remapping Ctrl-Shift-N to "Undo chat edits in this file" or Ctrl-N to "chatEditor.action.undoHunk" was a good idea. Hello @code.

Testing reveals speed, not depth. Real life is about depth.

Mmmh GPT-5.1 seems like a significant upgrade over GPT-5 in @code with GitHub Copilot but holy smokes does it burn through its premium requests quicker ...

GPT-5 with GitHub Copilot agent mode just produced a bona fide off-by-one error. Inching closer and closer.

Toying around with @github copilot coding agent (server). Reusing my local copilot-instructions markdown (which is a work in progress). I have an instruction which asks it to add a comment with the model name. So far: GPT-4, GPT-4o, gpt-4o-2024-08-06, claude-3-5-sonnet-20241022

When in doubt, run your build with binlog:
dotnet (build|publish) -bl
Then look at it using msbuildlog.com
Once again, made a difficult issue easy peasy.

msbuild and the dotnet build system logic is at times proper mystique, and sometimes illogical.

Small script to run the aspire dashboard standalone locally without docker. Script executes the dashboard directly from its @nuget package (aspire orchestration does it similarly without docker). Script here: github.com/dlosch/utils/blob…

Starting to like ( enjoy) @Github Copilot agent mode in @code insiders. It’s (fairly) good at incrementally generating code. Fairly good at understanding context from multiple files applying consistent changes. It’s only going to get better. Suggestions which is the best model?
