I spent 1-2 days debugging an issue related to MemoryMappedFile that occurs on iOS but not Mac or Windows. Today I found it in the Unity issue tracker marked as fixed in Unity 2023.3 and backports still in review: https://t.co/E3naEGp3gu

Got a nice surprise last week when attempting to sign up for a free trial of GitHub Copilot. Apparently, I'm eligible to use it for free. And got an email today saying I'm off the waitlist to start trying "Copilot chat private beta." https://t.co/bT0JRkLCDe
