GitHub Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • muratx10 Murat (@muratx10) reported

    Github Branch protection rule is broken. Cannot create a new rule. @github @githubstatus

  • HamelHusain Hamel Husain (@HamelHusain) reported

    @analyticsaurabh Interactive dev in Actions is a pain. There have been various ssh actions that would allow you to break-in but GitHub has shut some of those down over time. My suggestion would be to make your code as indpendent as possible, by moving everything to a script etc

  • partykit_io partykit (@partykit_io) reported

    Apparently the email updates from github sponsors dashboard aren't going out, so I don't think any of you got the writeup I put together :( Very sorry. I'll try to fix it tomorrow.

  • terrajobst Immo Landwerth @terrajobst@hachyderm.io (@terrajobst) reported

    @Hippopottoman I don't know about Google Drive but OneDrive's biggest issue that it doesn't store versions, so once you overwrite a file and that change was replicated, it's lost. With respect to GitHub: yes, it stored when its pushed. Having an hourly backup is nice.

  • 2amwakeupcall 2:00AM “Stream New Year” Wake Up Call (@2amwakeupcall) reported

    good news everyone i forgot my github login and the email is set to my long defunct college email :'))

  • waldyrious Waldir Pimenta (@waldyrious) reported

    @gitchat Also: what about GitHub features like synced room management permissions with GitHub organization membership, issue and PR short references, activity updates from the repos, etc.? These are a big part of what made Gitter a natural choice for a chat room for FOSS projects.

  • nmnvzr Nathan (@nmnvzr) reported

    GitHub branch protection is not working and the branch protection settings table is not rendering properly. @githubstatus

  • _StevenFan steven (@_StevenFan) reported

    @averykimball ye and conquering it means I don't bail when the going gets hard- I've been to SO and github issues a bunch, choosen earlier non-broked package versions... I just don't get stuck anymore.

  • mafeusnunes Matheus Nunes (@mafeusnunes) reported

    @github An example of where this occurs is when going to the issues page and clicking on one, then going back and hovering the mouse over some component that makes the popover appear, it no longer disappears, it is just replaced by another popover on hevering another element

  • iMykeSays Mike (@iMykeSays) reported

    @github, YAML is not Moustache. Please fix your language detection specs.

  • oggreo Reo Ogusu (@oggreo) reported

    @KaneFulton I think Github shut down Atom last year before I got to try it out haha

  • ameywtf amey (@ameywtf) reported

    Bro I accidentally deleted all 20 of my CSES and USACO problem solutions while trying to upload to github. I want to cry 😭

  • atulio atul (@atulio) reported

    feels like a missed opportunity that there aren’t massive “sign in with github” buttons all over the azure landing pages

  • timClicks Tim McNamara (@timClicks) reported

    @jackosio Not sure (also wouldn't be allowed to say if I did). Perhaps open an issue on the Firecracker GitHub tracker? IIRC, that feature was implemented for Java in the open before it became an AWS feature.

  • KoreanBotNo185 Korean Bot (@KoreanBotNo185) reported

    Yeah yeah various codecs, some of them licensed bla bla bite me. I already pirated the code and I don't ******* care if you take down from github one by one

  • martinwoodward Martin Woodward (@martinwoodward) reported

    @p_j_poznanski @github @home_assistant In my experience you end up cranking the brightness down a lot anyway. But around 100 pixels is about the limit of driving it this way and getting away with it. More than that you need more circuitry (power direct plus upshift the data voltage to the correct 5v instead of 3.3)

  • sachaarbonel Sacha 💙🦀(https://hachyderm.io/@sacha) (@sachaarbonel) reported

    New trick I found if no one solved your issue on the internet, go to the forks tab on the github repo that's causing you an issue and look through the commit history of some of the forks to see if there are some fixes

  • _iam_karthik Karthik Balasubramanian (@_iam_karthik) reported

    @yashguptaz GitHub issues/discussions is a good place to start. Twitter also could be added i guess 🧐🤔

  • bnchrch Ben Church 🇹🇼 (@bnchrch) reported

    @filrakowski @github Another great example of the developer community being terrible at valuing their own time.

  • muratx10 Murat (@muratx10) reported

    @tob_sen @github Confirming this issue. @github

  • richdurso Richard Durso (@richdurso) reported

    @IronicBadger be sure to test Longhorn disk space reclaim. That only became a thing about 2 weeks ago with release 1.4 (see GitHub issue #836). I gave up waiting and migrated to Rook-Ceph for in-cluster storage.

  • TradfiSchizo Tradfi 🌸 (@TradfiSchizo) reported

    I see this with engineers who sometimes talk or fight about the latest framework or tailwind or sum bs and it’s like, there’s no point in arguing about this just use a static html and seve ur portfolio through GitHub pages like idk man does it rlly need2be a Haskell server?

  • ikudere ally (@ikudere) reported

    @HypnoKerc i don’t know what github link i’m replacing with the new one is the problem. i have like 3 in my settings

  • TheBitcoinRebbe The Bitcoin Rebbe 🚗⛓ (@TheBitcoinRebbe) reported

    @fiatjaf Nostr GitHub. Text based so not too heavy, and no need to worry about your project getting shut down. GitHub seems to work ok ATM but we'll see

  • IgorskiCo Igorski 🇲🇰 🇸🇪 🌎 (@IgorskiCo) reported

    I truly don’t understand all the hate tools get. You don’t like GitHub?! Jira is terrible? Jenkins sucks? K8S is too complicated? Fine, go use something else. If there is no alternative, build one. But don’t hate. It makes no sense.

  • CiscoRucinski 크리스 Christopher Rucinski (@CiscoRucinski) reported

    @PeacockFlu @CorneliusRoemer Do you know much about the BTS process. I'm curious if there is a way to have publically available information about each variant. I created a list that links variants to github issues and only 385 variants have a linked GitHub issue compared to the 776 total Omicron variants

  • darkstargodse Billionare Godse 6.0 (Parody) (@darkstargodse) reported

    Don’t brag on the spaces that you are developer or server administrator. You might learn the theory but you need to scroll YouTube GitHub and White Papers submitted somewhere with my name. Cut the cr@p go post where are say something about your mothers of report my accounts.

  • adrianfcole adrianfcole (@adrianfcole) reported

    it is hard to find a good non-gameable #github health number. closest might be "issues closed by person who wasn't the same person that opened it, but commented multiple times on PR associated with the issue that was closed, and said thank you while closing"

  • vedstwt Vedant. (@vedstwt) reported

    @atharv_sabde I believe, if you are not facing errors while using *** and github for the first time, you are probably doing it wrong.

  • 0x21376B00 Tristam (@0x21376B00) reported

    @128_mhz Try giving it a problem that doesn’t have 50 existing solutions on GitHub/StackOverflow/Unity forums. It’s very good at regurgitating things it has already internalised - not so good at solving novel problems
