Researchers from Stanford University have found that programmers who accept help from AI tools like Github Copilot produce less secure code than those who fly solo.

I’m sure you’d find the same thing of developers who blindly cut & paste from Stack Overflow.

The favorite and boost counts of posts from other instances don’t seem to be accurate when viewed from my end. It’s almost always only a fraction to what’s shown when viewed by the permalink (on that instance)

I’m sure it’s common here but I’m always intrigued as to why it’s like that 🤔

cc #JohnMastodon, got any idea?

Cheers to the weekend.
