Always fun to see a translated copy of your book - even if you don't know the language :-) Learning #GitHub #Copilot is now in Russian! Grateful to @OReillyMedia and the translation team for making this happen. & glad the book can reach more devs exploring how AI tools fit.

@amazon, your definition of "near the front door or porch" needs some work...

It's so much "fun" when @amazon sends you the wrong product twice in a row and then you chat with them to try to get it corrected and their associate (or more likely AI) doesn't respond in time and they cut off the chat.
