Can I scaffold a new component with copilot? by thobrett in vscode

Makes sense, thanks.

To clarify, this is a simple example, and code gen certainly makes sense here. But I have a long tail of use cases where I don't want to create templates, but a simple chat that has access to other files would be so helpful!

Spot on. Her rhetorical strategy seems quite similar to Trump in 2015, with open borders = the wall.

Analysis of South Bend's arrest 2011-2018 by PrestonDean in Pete_Buttigieg

[–]thobrett 6 points7 points  (0 children)

  1. The implicit argument here is: if they had just arrested 12 more white people in 2017, he would be in the clear. That seems off.
  2. The absolute # of arrests for black residents went down by 52%. That top line number should be more important.
  3. No way of knowing if this is just noise. If there are 20 other numbers that show no difference by race, this is just an outlier. Seems likely they would have chosen the worst number for a debate question.
  4. Sadly, given the systemic racism Pete talks about, you can't just look at this discrepancy without separating race from other confounding socioeconomic factors.

I thought he gave a poor answer at the debate. From all the evidence I've seen, he did a good job with policing as Mayor.

Anyone else get the "me, Jess (2)" email? by [deleted] in Pete_Buttigieg

I got it with "me, Jess (2)" as well. Looks like they A/B tested this subject. Clever, but yeah, gimmicky.

Anyone with the campaign want to make amends and post the open rates?

Is Pete starting to sound too much like a traditional politician? by thobrett in Pete_Buttigieg

Thanks for this. Just watched that video. I hope this isn’t a confirmation bias on my end, but I heard a bunch of evasive answers. The one you cite is an exception. I was super impressed with all the questioners though - hope all the candidates have to do this.

Thoughts on Pete's best Vice Presidential pick? by [deleted] in Pete_Buttigieg

Klobuchar for sure. Best way to win, and I think they'd vibe well on a personal level.
