GitHub Copilot just got a sidebar for new experimental features 👨🏽‍🔬👩🏻‍🔬 The first one explains what your code does and let's you ask custom questions. This was super fun to build, as prompt writing for OpenAI models is more of an art than science.

Support theme context for images in light vs dark mode

Nov 24, 2021

Our mobile apps have new betas in TestFlight and Google Play with support for these light/dark mode images. Full release is planned for next week. 📱 Thanks to our community for suggesting this feature: github.community/t/support-them ✨ 2/2

github.community

Please add a smarty tag for Readme files that provides the information about the selected theme. This will be useful in switching Logos in the Readme file for light & dark theme. Something like this:...

By popular request - you can now display different images in Markdown for light ☀️ and dark 🌑 color modes. Append #gh-light-mode-only or #gh-dark-mode-only to the image URL and voilà! 🎉 Works for Markdown files in repos, gists, and your profile/org READMEs. 1/2

This article is a very interesting read. So much of computing is built on the mental model of files and directories. What would an OS look like with a different mental model? What happens to the systems in place today when that knowledge fades away?
