Hello Nana. Please we need a modern video for Jenkins, Kubernetes integration. A lot has changed.

Even for software development I found that it disturbs more than it helps. Because I have to know the topics, it is easier to write things myself instead of having to debug all the time especially, as you also point out, that Copilot uses outdated information. I personally wouldn't even use it if it would be completely free of any cost.

I use IT for writing Task, Like gui Text or simple task, Like Datatype and varriablen Manipulation. Every complex Task IS still by my. He Takes the broring parts

[@RomanTchekashov]

I used to be like you but recently I started to use it and saw how it boost productivity. If you know what you need to create you can create correct prompts and use a generated block of code. If you see it’s not absolutlly correct just use part of it. You don’t need keep everything in you brain to create some stub code or rewrite smthing. If you never used stackoverflow during your development maybe you don’t need it but if you using it then integrated GitHub copilot in your IDE is so much help. Maybe you write your code in notepad and don’t use IDE with autocomplete but I use it all the time. GitHub copilot boost your productivity on another level. Just try it and give it a time. If you want see its power asap try to rewrite something for example node.js app to spring boot)

Congrats on 1 million of subscribers Nana and thanks for the video.

[@vrnchndk]

Thanks for the great tutorial. They have updated their knowledge base to October 2023 as of today.

[@seventyfive7597]

I found that copilot depends on the task. It's great for localized dev tasks with limited langs like Python (it has the largest lib breadth, but is limited in paradigms/features and so copilot can handle it), or for straightforward tasks such as automation, web dev, etc. But it's horrific when I try it for complex tasks like real time or scientific code, or for more capable/feature full multi paradigm langs like C++. That's a very temporary limitation, and also the localized dev limitation, but that's the picture right now.

[@TechWorldwithNana]

Thank you for sharing!

[@happyday.mjohnson]

I found it helped me learn new ways to do things. For example, I was coding a FastAPI endpoint in Python. I would not have thought of several of the code suggestions. This led me to back up and understand better ways to code (for example async) processes. So while I find it a bit annoying using copilot's code for the majority (it either turns out to be inefficient or misses a key feature), I do find it very useful to learn. It's like getting stackoverflow answers at my fingertips. Gaining the knowledge and replacing my code is not there yet.

[@swaraj_edtech]

Thank you very much Nana. Looking forward for more such content 👌

[@MayankPratapSingh-e9l]

Hi Nana, what an awesome video. Thanks a ton for this ! Could you please let me know the video editing tips for this video ? I would greatly appreciate that. Thanks in advance!

[@tengdayz2]

Thank you for your high EQ and IQ explanations. You're a gem!

[@erionomeri007]

Very nice, definitely learned a few new things! Nana Thank you!

[@NeverCodeAlone]

Thx a lot for this great video and inspiration!!

[@TechWorldwithNana]

My pleasure! :)

[@fred-schneider]

thanks for the great & helpful video sessions .. but here is an early Xmas wish: on any screen session, I would like to see a larger, colored, noticeable, calm, easy to follow cursor instead of an almost invisible, fast, hard to follow micro-pointer ?

[@borisgolynski_]

@TechWorldwithNana Do you plan to review more modern tools, such as Cursor IDE?

[@adpj101]

May I have a question about a testing network device project? The Kali Linux system might be a perfect tool for creating the test environment. Is the GitHub Copilot much faster for writing test program code on any platform? I mean, do you have classes to teach Kali?

[@myrachoantonio8832]

thank you for the amazing work, though i did notice some discrepancies in my programming copilot was not 100% accurate - i guess i have good idea now as to the why

[@iaroslavdavydiak6439]

Since Copilot is not the best choice for AWS cloud infra development because of an outdated knowledge base, any suggestions or recommendations of which tool is better to use for infrastructure development in AWS? Has anyone tried AWS Codewhisperer? If yes, could you share your experience?

[@piusokao3527]

Nana, thankyou so so much, would you also do a tutorial for Django

[@itshamid1783]

Thank you Nana

[@joshuaoyemusic5753]

Thanks so much for your video and breakdown. Was waiting eagerly to see what it looked like in the AWS console. Thanks anyways ❤

[@godwinpinto86]

Great videos. Thank you. Can you do a video on mono repo and release management

[@iam-raheem]

may be you should talk more about the security of this?

[@mamun001]

Thank you

[@bayoadeoba2923]

Please do you give certificate after bootcamp?

[@TechWorldwithNana]

Yes, after the bootcamp you can obtain our "Certified DevOps Practitioner" certificate, which is a digital badge. You can check them out here: www.credly.com/organizations/techworld-with-nana/badges

[@muhammadusamaalvi6910]

Thinking from the security POV, your company most probably not want you to give all that code context to program.

[@muratukuthrai5735]

Yes even the awareness to developers are must not to expose their algorithms and secret proprietary code.

[@dHrUvJa]

"is devops is a future proof job in this AI era? " please make a video on this topic I am so nerves to choose my career in IT Please help

[@Sammyi]

Hi Nana, thank you for another new video But im unable to get free trail / access until i add billing information and card, is there any other way to get free access for learners?

[@anisdhouieb9918]

is github copilot free ?

[@ankitrajpootr]

No

[@Starkypooo]

In some scenarios it is. For example if you are a student or work on popular open source projects

[@IncorrectTarget.]

I was looking for this comment and answer

[@manav.2907]

Hey Nana Can a college fresher land in devops or cloud job????

[@xviewmytubex]

Where can I get your hoodie? =)

[@TechWorldwithNana]

Not available, maybe in the future :)

[@xviewmytubex]

@@TechWorldwithNana Please! I use your tutorials and would happily buy related merchandise! =).

[@KarlSchmitt-u2y]

Nana you are so beautiful and your youtube tutorials are so nice and easy to follow :-) Can we get a bootcamp on Java and SpringBoot from you?

[@aloSolo]

Do you offer a refund if the course is not a good fit?

can you make a video like crash course about mlops? it will be helpful.

Hey Nana, vuoi fare un giro con me ?

Used it for a week. Very stupid AI software. Suggests not working code segments, removes something that is not supposed to remove in both C# and cloud scripts as well. Does not even come close to claude or GPT chat. Very disappointing.
