GitHub Copilot review

 Although the Copilot technical preview does not always provide nice, correct, or even running code, it is nevertheless useful. Future versions may prove to be significant time saves. GitHub Copilot, dubbed "Your AI pair programmer" and currently in a limited technical preview, aims to help automate programming in a way that goes beyond what IntelliSense and similar tools can do. It isn't totally self-contained. As we'll see, you must specify (write out) your objectives before Copilot can produce useful code, and you must also supervise Copilot to keep it on track when it inevitably goes off the tracks. Copilot is a cloud service that connects to Visual Studio Code (on your local machine or in the cloud via GitHub Codespaces), JetBrains IDEs like IntelliJ IDEA, and Neovim. OpenAI Codex, a language model trained on billions of lines of public code, powers the cloud service, which is a code prediction engine. Yes, there was a debate over Codex and Copilot. Before you ge

 10 C# Programming Ideas Programming with C# can be super fun for some people. You have the power to make almost anything you want! You can make anything from a simple calculator, to a super advanced game. But coming up with ideas for projects you can work on can be a real pain sometimes. That's why I decided to give you 10 C# programmeing ideas that you can start on today. 1. ATM Software If you've searched for ideas before, you've probably seen this one a bunch of times. But it's for a good reason. Making an ATM software requires you to make some type of authentification, you need to edit strings  and strings , and a lot more basic programming. It may seem easy, and it probably is too, but if you can make an ATM software, you're already far ahead from most people. These are some features your ATM Software should include: Checking if the input is correct (ATM Card, Credit Card Number) for login Verifying the user by asking for a 4-digit PIN. If 4-digit PIN is not c

How to create a Vignette effect in Photoshop

How to create a Vignette effect in Photoshop  In this tutorial I will show you how to create a vignette effect in Adobe Photoshop, as photoshop itself doesn't have a built in Vignette tool. Final Result: Let's get to it! Step 1: As usual, we need to start off by making a document, or if you already have one you want to apply the vignette effect too, use that one. Step 2: Select the gradient tool from the toolbox, or use the shortcut (G) to automatically select it. Step 3: Once the gradient tool is selected, you need to click the "Radial" button on top of the document. This makes it so the gradient is circular instead of linear. Step 4: Now create a new layer above the first layer. If you multiple layers, make sure the new Layer is above all the others. To keep it clean, you can also rename it to "Vignette layer". Step 5: Once you've created the new layer, click and drag to make a line. The further away from the middle you choose as your starting point, t

What is a proxy server, and how does it work?

People rarely think about the nuts and bolts of how the internet operates. The issue is that cute dog images, 24-hour news updates, and wonderful internet offers can all be accompanied with data security breaches and identity theft. What happens, however, when you go online? You might use a proxy server at work, on a Virtual Private Network (VPN), or you're one of those tech-savvy people that uses a proxy server all the time. What is a Proxy Server, and how does it work? Any system that converts traffic between networks or protocols is referred to as a proxy server. It's an intermediary server that sits between end-user clients and the destinations they visit. Depending on your use case, demands, or company policy, proxy servers provide varied levels of functionality, security, and privacy. If you're using a proxy server, traffic will pass via it on its way to the location you requested. The request is then routed through the same proxy server (with some exceptions), and th

How to make a dark & moody color tone in Adobe Photoshop Some images would be better if they had a dark and moody feel to it. Many people turn to photoshop to manipulate their photos, but don't know how. In this tutorial I will show you exactly how you can give an image a moody look. End result: Step 1: First off, you need to open a Adobe PhotoShop document with the image you want to edit. I will use this royalty free image of a tiger, but you can use whatever you want. Step 2: First start off by making a copy of the main layer, then hide the main one. You should always do this no matter what editing you are doing. This is to preserve the original, so if you make a huge mistake, you can always go back to the original. Step 3: Now you want to create a new adjustment layer (the half-filled circle at bottom right). Choose the "Channel Mixer". Step 4: Change the "Output Channel" to "Blue". Then move the "Blue" slider down to 0%, and "G

How to create a mesh in Adobe Illustrator Hello everyone! In this tutorial I will teach you all how you can create a mesh in Adobe Illustrator. This tutorial contains 9 steps and should be easy to follow with. End result: At the end of the tutorial, I will leave some challenges for you to complete if you wish too. Good luck! Step 1: The first thing you need to do, is create a new Adobe Illustrator document. Does not matter the dimensions. This also works if you already have a project you have worked on. Step 2: Select the line tool from the toolbox, and make a straight line (Hold shift and drag). Make sure you give it a color you like. Step 3: Make sure the line is selected.
