I have posted nothing, really, about a project that has consumed the last year of our teams' life, and is Really Quite A Big Deal because I am far more interested in AI helping developers to understand code than I am in using it to generate code. Copilot Workspace does generate code at the end of the process but I think that's the least interesting part about it.

GitHub NextGitHub Next | Copilot WorkspaceGitHub Next Project: A Copilot-native dev environment, designed for everyday tasks.

But I'm really tired and scared and tired of feeling scared. And tired of whining about it here like it makes a difference. And tired of wondering if anyone even sees the insane amount of inversion happening on the left just because it doesn't wear a MAGA hat.

tl;dr ask me anything about Copilot Workspace, because we poured a lot of unintuitive sweat into figuring out how to make something that actually helps developers with the sense-making, spec-writing, plan-devising work of coding — aka, the majority of the job.

@idan I'm a one person dev org and would love to get off the wait-list 😂 looks like you and your team made something really great and I can't wait to try it out.

@idan copilot voice was a game changer for me last summer when I had a broken wrist. If that was you too, thanks!

@bageler The broader Next team, though we're pretty tiny, (<20 people when we are fully staffed, which we aren't) Rahul Pandita from GitHub Next was the lead on voice! I'm so happy to hear that it helped you; I'll tell him (he'll be thrilled).

I recommend that you join the next discord, we frequently prioritize folks there, but it's going to be slow as we onboard folks: gh.io/next-discord

@idan thanks I'm still in the discord from last summer :)
