The judge also noted that the cited study itself mentions that GitHub Copilot “rarely emits memorised code in benign situations.”

“Rarely” is not zero. This looks like it’s opening a loophole to copying open source code with strong copyleft licenses like the GPL:

1. Find OSS code you want to copy
2. Set up conditions for Copilot to reproduce code
3. Copy code into your commercial product
4. When sued, just claim Copilot generated the code

Depending on how good your lawyers are, 2 is optional. And bingo! All the OSS code you want without those pesky restrictive licenses.

In fact, I wonder if there’s a way to automate step 2. Some way to analyze an OSS GitHub repo to generate inputs for Copilot that will then regurgitate that same repo.

Disambiguation page says it’s also sometimes used as another name for the egg in the basket dish.

That strongly depends on the job. If the company has to follow regulations to meet some security posture, wiping the OS (and all the security tools and configuration set up by IT) to put your own favored OS without matching the security requirements could wind up with you getting fired.

I use Authy for 2FA but know little about the underlying technology. Does this mean my accounts that use Authy for 2FA may now be compromised? Or is it just my phone number? Because my phone number has been out in the wild for a long time already…

On Sundays I do lunch prep for the days in office. A few slices of deli meat and block cheese for a nice flavor. Then a pile of raw veggies and a small container of dipping sauce. I prefer sliced bell pepper and green onion with ranch dressing, but you can do whatever veggies you prefer (for example spinach, sugar snap peas, carrots). I always feel great after that lunch; grains like bread or chips always made me feel lethargic.

I take it into the office in a plastic bento box to keep everything from jostling around, and the sauce goes in a smaller reusable container separately.

The article touches on that. VPN traffic is itself a small category, so even if we assume all VPN traffic is torrenting, that doesn’t push it very far up the charts.
