Microsoft published new documentation for Visual Studio 2022's GitHub Copilot Chat tool, explaining how to use 'threads' to improve the experience with the AI-powered coding assistant.

Microsoft has released Visual Studio 2019 16.4, the newest version of its full integrated developer environment (IDE) that was launched in April.

Microsoft had a great thing going when it had GitHub Copilot all to itself in Visual Studio and Visual Studio Code thanks to its ownership of GitHub, but that's eroding.
