    @way0utwest @github Yeah. We’re trying to get an after-hours hot fix out and…it’s not going well

  • smartchallnge Albert (@smartchallnge) reported

    Hi @alexblearns I am trying to run the android instagram code that you have published on github, but in Android Studio i get the error: File google-services.json is missing. The Google Services Plugin cannot function without it. Any way you could check that and update the repo?

  • willem_hetzijzo Willem Cheizoo (@willem_hetzijzo) reported

    @eliasnogueira "Github was down today, it copied the copyright into my files magically" would have been the funniest answer

  • ozidoesthings ozi👩🏾‍💻 (@ozidoesthings) reported

    all these github issues are way too scary and a great reminder to never depend on one service for one task

  • w3woody Bill Woody (@w3woody) reported

    @OfficialLoganK Case in point in the "solve actual problems" category: @github CoPilot. Now if there was only an XCode plugin... (hint, hint)

  • manishprivet Manish Kumar ⛄️ (@manishprivet) reported

    @github WTH guys 😐 People’s deployments depend on you 😢 #github #outage

  • RobertSchaffar Robert Schaffar-Taurok (@RobertSchaffar) reported

    Gist of Github Copilot in work related context is: "Ok if it makes you more productive". Not if it makes me happier. More chilled. Reduces my workload. And that's the problem. Profit motive colliding with what's coming is the biggest threat of all.

  • PycraftDev PycraftDev (@PycraftDev) reported

    ... Gradually in both Pycraft's GitHub repository and in Pycraft's documentation. So why am I talking about this? Well today we have adjusted one very important standard in Pycraft, previously every individual subroutine in Pycraft had to include error handling...

    “Hi, I would like to manage people’s access to Microsoft tools with a single Microsoft account” “Cool, here is an app called Company Portal. Sign in once and you’re good on any Microsoft product” “I would like to use this same process for GitHub” “No can do, bucko”

  • im_ferris ferris 🚀 (@im_ferris) reported

    Is it just me or is Github having a concerning number of operations issues lately?

  • padmaia Maia Teegarden (@padmaia) reported

    @FwardPhoenix @wSokra Could you open a GitHub issue with what you're seeing?

  • Yubin_Xie Yubin (@Yubin_Xie) reported

    🧬 Recently, I've been exploring various inferCNV-like methods, only to find that many renowned methods from active labs, published in prestigious journals, are riddled with bugs & impossible to run 🐞 Tons of open GitHub issues, ignored by authors 😔 This stifles innovation from…

  • MisterB80 Neil. (@MisterB80) reported

    Looks like I picked the wrong day to add some build automation to my current project. A few hours down a rabbit hole wondering why it's not working only to find out GitHub Actions are currently offline. Note to self, check the GitHub status page first!

  • AlexReibman Alex Reibman (@AlexReibman) reported

    Have a friend who was banned from @github for no reason, anyone know how to fix?

  • rohan_devarc Rohan | Systems Programmer 🚀🚀 (@rohan_devarc) reported

    @Happymahto07 @github A valid point. I believe the problem with Indian techies is far deeper. It is founded on the belief that "Indian techies are accessible at extremely low cost, and even if we conduct a savage layoff, these folks would still be sticking around for any future recruiting binge."…

  • jjaybrown98 Jason Brown (@jjaybrown98) reported

    You know what doesn’t help during the final days of a massive project? GitHub actions going down twice in the same week. Not like people are trying to ship bytes or anything…

  • gvsh_maths Gaurav Singh (@gvsh_maths) reported

    Of all the days for @github pages to go down, it had to be today - when I needed them 🤧 cc @githubstatus

  • c_lestrade CherryLestrade 🎻👞 tgaa fandom menace (@c_lestrade) reported

    Just done an update for the meme maker that's kinda cool, but Github pages (the system I host the website on) is broken and I can't upload anything new right now. Boo. Watch this space though.

  • saadkhan006 Saad Khan (@saadkhan006) reported

    @artificialres idk i havent looked online elsewhere and it's down on github due to DMCA claim. But, I doubt it was anything earth shattering. Just not great that it was up at all.

  • mrplado Lennart Benschop (@mrplado) reported

    @BreakIntoProg Did fix BYE in FORTH now and pushed it to github

  • peer_rich Peer Richelsen 🗓🍊⚡️ (@peer_rich) reported

    with remote work and GPT5 there'll be a ton of shadow employees whose AI bot just hangs around in slack, replies to messages, fixes GitHub issues, asks for PRs, gets them merged and sends a GIF when they get promoted -- while the maker of that bot is surfing in Costa Rica

    -What Is The Problem With Existing AI Projects? State-of-the-art AI tools often exist only in GitHub repositories created by graduate students or independent researchers, limiting their use due to the difficulty in installing, configuring, and running them

    My commits: 1. Fix typo in docs (+1, -1) 2. Rewrite everything in Rust (+1,935,133, -2,634,111) GitHub's suggested PR title: #5913: Fix typo in docs

  • fharper Frédéric Harper (@fharper) reported

    @SophieDiy It is, and as someone who managed multiple OSS projects issues & community, some as popular as npm, I always took the time to point people to the right place. It's not the end if someone ask a question in a GitHub issue. His answer wasn't helpful in addition to be patronizing.

  • defunkt defunkt (@defunkt) reported

    He was right. From that point on, we didn't touch it. For years you could have unlimited collaborators on private repos on GitHub, despite what the paid plans said. Almost nobody abused the system, and we instead focused on bigger problems. Thanks @tmornini.

    @awkweb yo, I mailed you something about a github issue. just wanted to ping you here, cause I'm kind of clueless, sorry to bother you.

  • TimTeaFan Tim Tiefenbach (@TimTeaFan) reported

    @brodriguesco Do you have GitHub Enterprise? You could use issues as threads and tag people.

  • TimTeaFan Tim Tiefenbach (@TimTeaFan) reported

    @brodriguesco This was indeed one of the problems which stopped us from using GitHub as project management tool, because not all team members had access/knew how to use it.
