Copilot is a steal at $10/m.

HN can set itself apart from Twitter and Reddit by celebrating great achievements rather than tearing them down.

Copilot stands on the shoulders of open source, yes. So do many of our personal and commercial projects. Copilot benefitted from having beta users. That relationship went both ways.

A big thanks to the Copilot team for letting us be a part of the beta. I will happily pay $10/m for this.

Steal is a good word, considering that in some cases Copilot violates some open source licenses.

to be clear they actually took much of what Tabnine was doing and declined to let us use GPT3 (MSFT closed Open AI). It turned out to be good because there are lots of other great models out there from T5 (SFDC), Meta, Google, etc that will continue to move forward faster.
