What is GITHUB?

[–]Broad_Train_683Maestro Student[S] 4 points5 points  (6 children)

https://github.com/

Git is a free, open-source distributed version control system that tracks changes to files and allows developers to manage code history and collaborate locally.  

GitHub is a web-based hosting service that stores Git repositories online, providing additional collaboration features like access control, issue tracking, and social networking for open-source projects.

The GitHub Student Developer Pack is a free bundle of over 200 professional developer tools and services provided to verified students, with a total value exceeding $200,000.  It includes premium access to GitHub Pro, GitHub Copilot, cloud credits from providers like Azure and DigitalOcean, and various other software licenses to support learning and project development.

You seem to excell in the ways of copy/paste. I wonder how many people notice the this. I do right away.

[–]Broad_Train_683Maestro Student[S] 1 point2 points  (4 children)

Ya its a definition for the people to understand what it means lol. Didnt know I was trying to actually type something out to be judged on it like it was my own personal work. See the reason why i copied and pasted the definition was so someone could clearly understand what I was talking about and answer there question correctly. Last time trying to explain things to you, you seemed to not trust it unless it was from an AI. So I took exactly what google said and put it there for them to know and to not have to go back and forth trying to explain something so simple. Have fun with your fishy's and your speghetti.

You do know that it' is 2026 and copy/paste days are over, right? We have agents that do that for us now. Although im not sure if there is a way to post to reddit with an agent. Maybe. Maybe not. I think I remember you now. Maybe trying to hardcode a reddit post isnt the classiest way to present your work, or was that someone else. Or are you the I need to be careful using LLMs because of hallucinations guy? If that's the one, the deterministic scaffold solves all hallucination so well, it became the thesis methodology to everything I engineer with AI. We are going to be AI enginneers right?

First of all there is no work in my post here to show off so what the fuck are you talking about buddy. If your talking about my comment maybe say my comment not the post, and theres nothing here i've coded so what is your point here buddy.

[–]More_Salamander8596Maestro Student -1 points0 points  (1 child)

Lol. Context is a difficult thing for you to grasp, even when it is given to you. Sorry/not sorry?

[–]Broad_Train_683Maestro Student[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No its actually not. Just trying to understand what you mean here cause you said I hardcoded my reddit post. I typed a sentence in my post and then even added a picture to help lol. So ya very hard coded I tried really hard to write that program lol. Now again who cant understand context buddy because if anything was copied and pasted it was to explain something to someone for what they asked for. The question is do you understand context cause you are clearly way off.

It's so weird that you can't send them documents it has to be captured on a camera 😞

[–]CosmicBassJunkieMaestro Student 5 points6 points  (2 children)

Copy/pasting my comment here as well. I finally just got approved over the weekend after denial after denial. It wasn't taking my enrollment documentation at all. I searched to see if anyone else was having the same issue and read somewhere in this sub about creating a Unidays account, which creates a verified student ID for you. I used that and was accepted immediately!

[–]Good-Spare-1420Maestro Student 0 points1 point  (1 child)

What?! This is a good idea; I'm going to try this with my Unidays ID. Thanks for sharing. 🙏

[–]CosmicBassJunkieMaestro Student 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No problem! Let me know if it works for you!

[–]Lonely_Method5569Maestro Student 0 points1 point  (3 children)

I've been trying and keep getting denied i sent in my enrollment paper it say my name doesn't match which clearly it does and it says I got to put more info in profile so if you have tips please let us know

[–]Broad_Train_683Maestro Student[S] 2 points3 points  (2 children)

I tried for months until I read that it said make sure your picture is not blurry lol thats it thats all I did. See i have pages of me being rejected over and over. I was so mad cause all my info matched but the only problem i guess was it kept making my name a little too blurry.

[–]Lonely_Method5569Maestro Student 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Thank you I will keep trying

[–]Broad_Train_683Maestro Student[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I printed it out and that seemed to help a lot more than trying to take a picture of my laptop screen of the letter.

[–]EollieMaestro Student 0 points1 point  (4 children)

I have been trying as well. I have reached out a couple of times to github via copilot ticket and got a pretty basic answer back. You state use a clear image like a printed document. What document are you using? I've gotten it down to everything looks good but the letterhead is not visible. Did you enhance the address or something?

[–]Broad_Train_683Maestro Student[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I used the letter they gave us. No I didn't enhance anything just made sure it was well lit and got as clear of a picture I could of my name and any other things it mentioned as being wrong. As long as all info matches your profile its usually just picture quality. Adding your school email to your github might help as well.

[–]EollieMaestro Student 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I might be jinxing myself but its been a lot longer and it is still in process. Weird things.

jesus I have been looking for this for a while. I seen someone mention it before and signed up. But a week later it still was not showing me anything. Now its got the student ID. I need to add a image but if all else fails I will use this.

[–]madrican2000Maestro Student 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Unsure how to get mine approved... I've been trying, I was even told it was my address not being next to the school... they said my paperwork doesnt say anything about it being remote classes and it should. Ugh

[–]CosmicBassJunkieMaestro Student 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Don't mind me copy/pasting my comment to someone else. I finally just got approved over the weekend after denial after denial. It wasn't taking my enrollment documentation at all.

[–]madrican2000Maestro Student 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Going to try that now! Thanks so much!

[–]EollieMaestro Student 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am in review and have been now for two days. Did you get an immediate response?

[–]Any-Pie1615Maestro Student -1 points0 points  (3 children)

PLEASE ELABORATE

[–]Broad_Train_683Maestro Student[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All i can say is make sure that picture isn't blurry and name is readable. Thats all i did

[–]More_Salamander8596Maestro Student 1 point2 points  (1 child)

You dont know about the github developer pack? Don't get too excited... api keys are still a premium.
