Lol, lmao, etc.
You know at some point putting things on GitHub has to be considered a liability.

@mttaggart Private Github just seems oxymoronic.
Like, I have stuff up there... but it literally exists because I'm too cheap to pay for my own hosting, and it's stuff I want to make available to the world (it's also far more discoverable there than if I were to stuff it on my own private domain or something).

@Viss Have you listened to any recent interview with Satya? The guy is AI-pilled and nothing will convince him this isn't the way forward. Dude compared the liebot technology to fire.
When this bubble pops, the fallout will be big tech as we know it.

@mttaggart “At some point”?
My employer has a long-standing policy of only putting things on GitHub that are meant to eventually be FOSS.
Most of the product development happens on our internal GitLab platform.

@mathaetaes @mttaggart you still get features like inviting friends, pull requests, etc., or maybe you have a project you’re not quite willing to share just yet

@chucker @mttaggart @chucker @mttaggart I keep my stuff in a local git repo until I'm ready to share. If I'm not ready to share, I'm not really taking PRs...
Besides, as the original article shows - "Private" isn't always private on GitHub. If I need something to be private, I self-host it. Full stop.

@buherator Yeah I'd agree, but I also have zero confidence that even the settings that theoretically provide privacy from training/access to these models are implemented correctly.
