I’ve been very fascinated by the concept of a programming language designed for LLMs, both to that advantage of their strengths and to try and minimize their weaknesses.
In the US, the copyright office (as the article you link to says), has declined to define “meaningful” contribution. If you want to argue that the user doesn’t own it for incredibly trivial prompts, I won’t argue (though I consider that to be non-useful code).
Every developer I’ve seen use these tools has have engaged in a meaningful contribution: specific directions across multiple prompts, often (though not always) editing the code afterwards, manually running the code and promoting for changes, etc.
Until the courts, legislators, or the copyright office define something otherwise, I’m highly confident of my assertion. (Mostly because of the insane number of hours I’ve spent with counsel on this. And, as a disclaimer, since I am biased: I worked on Copilot and Google’s various AI assisted coding products as an SVP and VP.)
LLMs can definitely write programming languages. I used Gemini CLI (once it came, AI Studio before that) with Gemini 2.5 Pro to create one with Rust and LLVM:
This was completely vibe coded - I never had to edit the code, though it was very interactive. The whole thing tool less than a month of some evenings and weekends.
(Note: it’s ugly on purpose, as I’m playing with ideas around languages that LLMs would naturally be effective using.)
I’ve also experimented with using rust to create a new programming language where I vibe coded (eg never wrote myself). My opinion is that it’s quite capable with disciplined management.
Stopped reading after the patently false “communist inspired universal basic income”. A casual knowledge of the topic would lead one to understand it’s a capitalist, Milton Friedman inspired, idea.
Hi all - I'm the head of engineering at GitHub. Please accept my sincere apology for this downtime. The cause was a bad deploy (a db migration that changed an index). We were able to revert in about 30 minutes. This is slower than we'd like, and we'll be doing a full RCA of this outage.
Right this second, we offer the ability to export your analytics to Azure Blob Storage, and Application Insights, where you can then join the App Center analytics with other data.
We are looking at what we can do to make the SPA + mobile workflow super easy, though. Stay tuned on this. In the meantime, feel free to reach out to me as I'd love to ask you some more questions.
Most of the services are free. You don't have to use the test service if it is outside of your budget. For instance, you could push your successful builds directly to beta testers, if you'd like.
We've gone out of our way to make sure everything in the product is accessible via our REST API, and we also have a CLI you can install from npm.
The team is extremely passionate about creating developer productivity tools. App Center's creators include the founders of HockeyApp, Xamarin Test Cloud, and CodePush. This is something we were all iterating towards individually, and when we met up at Microsoft, we realized we now had the team and ability to make it happen.
Microsoft is very serious about creating amazing developer tool across any app, platform, and language for a variety of reasons. Making Azure the most productive place to power your app is part of it, of course. But, in the long run, the easier we make development, the more the world benefits.
We are investigating what it would take to support RN with Windows. I'm a huge RN fan (and we include CodePush inside of App Center.) If you have a moment, shoot me an email as I'd love to ask you more about your scenarios.
Hi - author of the blog post here and PM on the team!
We are very proud of what we've built here. Regardless of how you built your app (Swift, Java, React Native, Xamarin), we offer CI, releasing to your beta users and the app stores, Crash reporting, analytics, and even push messaging. Let us know your thoughts!

Here’s a take I experimented with last year (feel very free to steal anything useful): https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/aether/tree/feature/v...
(Note: main has a version that was an ugly syntax, the branch in the link was for a prettier attempt)
