A fan of all things data.

@davidfowl Do you find yourself still typing prompts to your agents as the main style of input, or using voice dictation more? I'm thinking I need to start using voice more.

@JamesMontemagno GPT 5.6 Luna Extra High is hard to beat.

@unixterminal Burns a lot of tokens, I know that much.

@JackWoth98 I tried Gemini 3.8 Flash by redesigning a simple HTML calculator. The model could not get out of its own way. The non-stop reading seems like a common problem with the model. It just burns credits.

@DanWahlin I'm continuing to explore Github Copilot. Do you have any material covering using Github Copilot Mobile? I have projects hosted on my Github Pages. If I'm at a conference, and I want to make a quick change + push to the app, can I do it from my phone?

[James Barrineau @JamesBData]

@JackWoth98 I see him typing a lot. Is voice dictaction enabled?

[James Barrineau @JamesBData]

@JackWoth98 @antigravity Is voice-control enabled in Antigravity? Seems like the ideal input when running on a VR headset.

[James Barrineau @JamesBData]

@JamesMontemagno Is there anything that highlights that the model is currently discounted? If I didn't see your tweet, or be familiar with the original pricing, I wouldn't know there is currently a discount.

[James Barrineau @JamesBData]

@DanWahlin I'll give this a go, thanks!

[James Barrineau @JamesBData]

@DanWahlin I've become comfortable with agentic coding but I don't have any experience with using Github for anything other than storage. Do you have any material showing how to leverage the two together?

[James Barrineau @JamesBData]

@JorgeCastilloPr The ponytail logo alone is worth the price of admission.

@OrenMe @code I ask once again. Please let us use the Agents window without requiring a sign-in. My domain uses vscode BYOK which is wonderful but we are unable to sign-in.

[James Barrineau @JamesBData]

@pierceboggan Any roadmap for when BYOK will work with Github CoPilot App? I enjoy using it at home but my domain of work won't allow an enterprise sign-in. The team is using vscode chat byok for now.

@ajambrosino Speaking of pixels, can codex app do pixel art?

[James Barrineau @JamesBData]

@pierceboggan With this being new and rapidly iterating, what is the best path to provide bugs and errors? I trialed it this weekend and getting hard app crashes when using browser preview.

[James Barrineau @JamesBData]

@its_just_chen I just watched your YT demo about BYOK. Good stuff. Is there any setting or toggle to allow BYOK in the Agents Window? It prompts for a sign-in still.

[James Barrineau @JamesBData]

@burkeholland I agree. I believe that the current frontier models are more than good enough for my purposes. Now, I want faster and cheaper.

[James Barrineau @JamesBData]

@code @code Can the Agents Window now be configured to not ask for a sign-in when using BYOK?

[James Barrineau @JamesBData]

@JamesMontemagno the new vscode BYOK has been a game-changer for my team. I want to start leveraging the Agents Window but I'm stopped by a sign-in, even with BYOK. Will Agents Window be available for the BYOK crowd?

[James Barrineau @JamesBData]

@code I am utilizing BYOK. Can I use Fable 5 in the new Agents Preview window with BYOK? I keep getting prompted to sign-in.
