Is copilot a huge security vulnerability?
https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/1gijbgw/is_copilot_a_huge_security_vulnerability/

It is my understanding that copilot sends all files from your codebase to the cloud in order to process them… I checked docs and with copilot chat itself and there is no way to have a configuration file, local or global, to instruct copilot to not read files, like a .gitignore So, in the case that you retain untracked files like a .env that populates environment variables, when opening it, copilot will send this file to the cloud exposing your development credentials. The same issue can arise if you accidentally open “ad-hoc” a file to edit it with vsc, like say your ssh config… Copilot offers exclusions via a configuration on the repository on github https://docs.github.com/en/copilot/managing-copilot/managing-github-copilot-in-your-organization/setting-policies-for-copilot-in-your-organization/excluding-content-from-github-copilot That’s quite unwieldy and practically useless when it comes to opening ad-hoc, out of project files for editing. Please don’t make this a debate about storing secrets on a project, it’s a beaten down topic and out of scope of this post. The real question is how could such an omission exist and such a huge security vulnerability introduced by Microsoft? I would expect some sort of “explicit opt-in” process for copilot to be allowed to roam on a file, folder or project… wouldn’t you? Or my understanding is fundamentally wrong?  submitted by /u/infinitelolipop (https://www.reddit.com/user/infinitelolipop)

Need help choosing programming language (Jr dev)
https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/1ghy9ok/need_help_choosing_programming_language_jr_dev/

Hey guys i am an experienced programmer- proficient in JS, TS, React and new to python. I just noticed that i don’t like any of those languages as they appose no challenge. I have come to the realization that all of these languages are overused and over-saturated . I like the C programming languages and would love to be challenged as a programer. I hate looking for “the best libraries “ and so on. Instead i want to code something that has something meaningful. I like the idea of desktop applications, games and so on These todo apps and websites dont move me at all..  submitted by /u/Soft-Flow-7884 (https://www.reddit.com/user/Soft-Flow-7884)
