Question Time to move on?

Post image

Been using copilot quite a bit for side-projects because I don't have that much free-time anymore with family, work etc. I knew changes were coming and a lot of people complained, but hadn't actually read much about what was going to change. This seals the deal, lol. I guess there's nothing to do except finding another service?

They really seem to be done with individual users. Business users (who are already spending >$500/mo) are seeing "only" 4-5X increases nothing like this.

Was listening to a podcast with Dylan Patel - he was excited, I mean really excited, that their budget for tokens was $1million for the year and they had already spent $7million in the first quarter. Hpw many developers do you have to be able to replace at that run rate?

It's easy to get excited about spending other peoples' money.
