Of course. Just choose a different model in VS Code.
If like me, you're a nerd that gets excited about research on economic growth, why some countries are richer than others, and the economics of innovation, take a look at Stanford Prof. Charles Jones' papers here: web.stanford.edu/~chadj/cv.html
TY to the economist for the references.
So apparently creators only capture about 2% of of the surplus they create!
This figure is so shockingly low that economists have suggested that the welfare-maximising marginal top rate of income tax should be reduced up to.. a negative 26%!
The repo is here:
github.com/Duartemartin...
Feel free to star, fork, or suggest improvements, especially as Rails keeps evolving. #rubyonrails #copilot #vscode
To get started:
Drop the .github/instructions folder into your Rails 8 app
Open Copilot Chat in VS Code
Prompt away. It’ll now suggest code that follows your stack and conventions
Rails follows an 'omakase' approach: a curated stack that works well together and reduces decision fatigue. Copilot can now lean into that, leveraging convention over configuration to become a productivity beast.
This repo provides a clean, modular setup. You’ll find instruction files for:
General Rails 8 conventions
Turbo + Stimulus
Tailwind
Solid Queue
Kamal
Importmaps
Hotwire Native
Use what you need, skip what you don’t.
Copilot Chat now supports repo-level instructions. That means you can set shared context for your whole project with no need to remind it what tech you’re using every time.
Rails 8 introduced a lot: Kamal for deploys, Solid Queue for background jobs, SQLite support in production, Hotwire improvements, and more. Copilot’s default suggestions don’t keep up out of the box.
I pushed a repo with canonical Rails 8 Copilot Chat instructions for VS Code. If you’re working with the new Rails stack and using Copilot, this should save you some time.

E é suposto estas pessoas serem as melhores para nos liderarem?
Portanto o PS exige que um processo simples tenha de arrastar um mínimo de 3 meses, e o PSD propõe uma moção de confiança sem necessidade. No meio disto tudo a esmagadora maioria do parlamento escolhe ir a eleições sabendo que é a última coisa que o país precisa neste momento.
AD+IL would likely get an absolute majority if they ran together in an election.
It was never real. PS was horrible.
Educational scores (PISA) are terrible, the health system just got ranked the worst in Europe, immigration is out of control, etc.
How come?
Good luck! Is it a native app?
Thanks Jason. I wanted to take this opportunity to tell you that I think your microconf YouTube video on building the ideal bootstrapped business is one of the best videos I’ve ever watched on the internet.
I added it to my “micro saas canon”: www.santiago-martins.com/the-micro-sa... 👍
Any tips on building a programmatic meta/open graph image? The app is built with #rubyonrails if that is relevant.

Where do you stand on offering a free tier in B2C? I’m considering removing mine.
I did the same thing. In fact I used Grok to help me write the reason 😂
The support for AfD was a crossing the Rubicon moment, and the recent anti NATO push is beyond the pale.
What a shame. I’m the target audience for electric cars, twitter, and would even end up buying Starlink in the future. 🤷♂️
Nice. I’d love to have a proper biohacking/health dashboard. I feel like Apple Health is the closest and it’s quite limited. Data privacy is huge in this space though, not sure how it could be a web app.
Would love to know how they compare. I stopped using cursor a while back and wonder whether the updates have made it superior again.
Brilliant, thank you!
Made some changes to the disposable income calculator: app.popadex.com/disposable_i...
Would love to get feedback if you have any.
Debugging. I find it difficult to troubleshoot when something doesn’t work as intended.
Over the course of a lifetime, this amounts to €500,000 in contributions to the state. Now the question is, can we really say the state is better at managing those half a million euros in providing for health, education, schooling and retirement than the individual?
Someone on an average wage in Spain - €1,000 net/month - pays 50% of their income in taxes, between social security and income tax. On top of that, they pay about 20% in indirect taxes on consumption.
🚀 Rails devs, I'd like your thoughts!
I'm wondering if it's worth adding a fixture dump method to Rails for generating YAML fixtures directly from the dev DB. Handy for complex tests!
Read the full proposal and pitch in with your feedback & ideas!

Link above in case this sounds interesting to you. I try to keep it high signal and low noise.
