When the GitHub Copilot Technical Preview launched just over one year ago, we wanted to know one thing: Is this tool helping developers? Our research, using a combination of surveys and experiments, led us to expected and unexpected answers. Happiness is a warm keyboard. Click, click. Shift, shift
Good news for people wanting to write an HTTP server in JavaScript, apparently.
edit: I would have sworn I've used an article about this study in the past, but the article was dated today (and obviously not just an echo as it's actually on the GitHub site). Maybe it was another study I had previously linked to?

This is part of the Facebook vs. Cambridge Analytica lawsuit. For those who don't remember, Cambridge Analytica used Facebook data to target pro-Trump and pro-Boris Johnson advertising in 2016. Facebook objected. Now it appears Facebook can't answer a seemingly simple question of how the data they collect on both their users and non-users via cookies is actually used. Not a good look for Facebook and I suspect even if they win this suit the EU will come down on them with GDPR violations like a metric ton of bricks.
