They’re competing directly with Microsoft (and getting crushed) because GitHub is their biggest competitor, so it makes sense that they wouldn’t want to use OpenAI products.

Agree that Ghostwriter is subpar though.

No, whole thing didn’t go down over a few hours. It was weeks. Not sure why you’d lie about this to protect someone you don’t know.

Furthermore, not only did did he refuse to acknowledge his lies, he continued to lie, doubled down on the previous ones, and to this day still continues to make deceptive statements.

So yes, as his slimy behavior has continued it is relevant to bring this up every single time replit is mentioned here.

That’s a very generous interpretation of what happened because it wasn’t a “mistake” when he threatened the intern, it was something he purposefully and intentionally did, and doubled down on, even after having significant time to reconsider. Only when there was widespread public criticism of his actions did he backpedal.

I’m curious what he’s said or done to make you a fan?
