Risk Assessment of GitHub Copilot

0xabad1dea, July 2021

this is a rough draft and may be updated with more examples

GitHub was kind enough to grant me swift access to the Copilot test phase despite me @'ing them several hundred times about ICE. I would like to examine it not in terms of productivity, but security. How risky is it to allow an AI to write some or all of your code?

Ultimately, a human being must take responsibility for every line of code that is committed. AI should not be used for "responsibility washing." However, Copilot is a tool, and workers need their tools to be reliable. A carpenter doesn't have to

Quick Guide to Tinkering with the Codecks API

Version: Jan 2021

The Codecks API is the source for powering the web app, so expect it to be fairly stable and expansive. We can't yet make any guarantees regarding the stability of all schema definitions and endpoints at this point. So tread with care!

To get started you need to extract your access token. This token will allow anyone who holds it to impersonate you. This also means they have access to all the same Organizations and contents as you do via the web app. So be careful who you share it with. You might want to create an observer user and use their token if this helps your use case (and the observer limitations suit your use case) you might also create a new non-observer user but this will count towards your user quota.

To extract the token, check requests going to the codecks api (https://api.codecks.io). There you'll find a cookie called at containing your token.

Super fast, keyboard-optimized, client side Hugo search

This is a fork of and builds upon the work of Eddie Webb's search and Matthew Daly's search explorations.

It's built for the Hugo static site generator, but could be adopted to function with any json index compatible with Fuse fuzzy search library.

To see it in action, go to craigmod.com and press CMD-/ and start typing.
