  @AlienAspiring @octra cool story bro already checked the github myself and ran my own tests So since you clearly dont have the capability even begin breaking down code and analyzing it, imma go ahead and say nothing you say will convince me or anyone who knows their shyt stay fresh and buy the top

  I asked a local model to list my public GitHub repos. It never finished. Not a crash. It just kept grinding. The official GitHub MCP server ships 27 tools. That's ~7k tokens of schema injected into every turn, before the model has done anything at all. Then the actual problem: there is no "list my repos" tool. The only path is repository search. Search returns 30 results by default, can't filter public from private, and hands back 16 fields per repo whether you want them or not. So a three-word question turned into ~7k tokens of tools plus 5k tokens of JSON about repositories I didn't ask for. On a frontier model behind a fast API you'd never notice. At ~40 tok/s locally it's the entire ballgame. None of this is a bug. It's a server designed for a context budget I don't have. So I wrote a slim one. 9 tools instead of 27. ~830 tokens of schema. Same nine repos, same transport: 2,974 chars instead of 5,434. The part I keep relearning is that tool design for local models isn't a prompting problem. You can tell a model "keep it small" all day. It can't shrink a payload the server already sent.

  Hey @github you guys flagged my account (HeresMyGit) for some reason and have been non-responsive in requests to get it back. I have bills to pay on 3rd party accounts that use "Login With Github" but I can't log in because my account was flagged. Help me out please.

  @XANDERSGONE @OGALANGLEY @HenkPoley Don't sweat it, I think you got nerd sniped into solving this particular problem. All I need is the question you want me to put into GitHub Copilot and the rest will be figured out automatically with windbg-tool. It can be tweet-sized, otherwise I'll paste your past posts into it

  i have a good one going through 15 repositories "Please go through all of the repositories Verify if there are open pull requests that update dependencies. If yes skip the repository If not check for updates for packages (both npm and flutter) Update them to the latest version available, do adjustments to implementations if required then rebase from main then run flutter analyze and npm lint:fix, then verify that the tests for flutter and npm work without errors and create a new pull request also ensure that package-lock.json is updated. Also verify that the github actions that run on PR creation - the checks - pass successfully"

  As far as repos go GitHub is just a cloud storage for *** a real nice repo browser. There is really nothing about *** which needs to change on the agentic dev era, other than how it’s used with parallel agents on the same machine - and this is a solved problem. So *** works and there isn’t a good reason to abandon it.

  @github good default, because the attack window on a poisoned release is almost always the first 48 hours. the interesting part is the fix wasn't smarter scanning. it was just waiting.

  @SimpleXChat @Synchro2050 @epoberezkin Calling the original statement “nonsense” and labeling it FUD does not make the commercial reality disappear. You are correct on the narrow legal point: according to public statements and the UK Companies House record, Evgeny Poberezkin remains the controlling owner (75%+ of SimpleX Chat Ltd) and CEO, and the VCs (Village Global, Asymmetric, Jack Dorsey) hold no board seats and have no formal control provisions. That part is accurate. However: The company has repeatedly taken venture capital and is now running equity crowdfunding on Wefunder so that investors (including the existing VCs and new ones) get a stake in the for-profit entity. Even a “very small non-controlling stake” still creates an expectation of financial returns and growth. That incentive structure is real, regardless of formal board seats. SimpleX Chat remains a commercial company whose business model includes commercialization of the protocol, public names, infrastructure payments, and raising outside capital. The Foundation is secondary and still includes the commercial founder on its board. This is not the same as a pure non-profit or community-owned project free of investor pressure. Pointing to an SEC filing that shows minority stakes does not erase the fact that the project is funded by and accountable to investors who expect the company to become valuable. That is the core distinction many critics are making — not a claim that VCs literally sit in the CEO chair. On the GitHub side: responsible private disclosure of security issues is standard practice, and premature public posting can indeed help attackers. That does not turn every factual observation about ownership, funding, or structure into “FUD.” The pattern of dismissing structural criticism as FUD while simultaneously soliciting more investment is what draws attention. Founder control + minority VC stakes + ongoing equity raises is still a commercial model. Acknowledging the legal details does not change the incentive reality.

  I’ve been able to build anything I can imagine without limits since Opus 4.6 Max … so I’ve decided after my only request to Fable this week received a ‘sorry model overloaded’ and I’m at 42% weekly usage resetting tomorrow given downtime + these toxic 5hr Usage limits … That I will replace all AI Building locally. Qwen 27b outperforms Opus4.6Max according to benchmarks so I’ve purchased 60gb of VRAM and if QWEN works I will be canceling my Claude Subscription. I’ve not had a cognitively useful AI Partner since Fable - the version that lasted 3days … so if all goes well I’m not going to miss the terrible UX we’ve been getting. Also - in enterprise I didn’t appreciate you adding Claude as an author to our GitHub repo’s. Be fun to ditch that. People see a ‘Claude’ watermark and just think you’ve put in zero effort - because that’s how THEY use AI.

  codeberg constantly has outages every day, sometimes that last for hours, its very slow to use when its not down codeberg does not have enough funding or resources for your ****** slop to be excreted out like github and microsoft does please let codeberg just be something for small and medium sized projects handcrafted by hardworking people and not your prompt garbage you have github for that. or better yet just host forgejo yourself.

  having a centralized skill repo in the company solves a lot of otherwise annoying problems: - visibility on which skills are actually being used, in which use cases - duplication / needing to copy same skills into a repo - allows non-technicals to use and create - version control - eval the skills the common approach to this is to throw everything into a shared GitHub repo, butit creates a poor user experience and misses a lot of the observability benefits

  Elaborating a bit on the hiring side: the whole interviewing process is taking so, so much more energy. I've interviewed two people recently, and both times I came out completely exhausted One turned the problem statement into an entire SaaS. Really cool, yes, they can get stuff done. But during the interview they couldn't explain how most of it worked or walk me through the actual decisions The other had this super amazing portfolio website. Then I looked at their GitHub and found that building the portfolio itself accounted for roughly 70% of their commits this year No, I don't believe GitHub activity should be treated as a hard measure (private repos, or simply non GitHub activity). But directionally, along with the fact their portfolio and projects were hosted there, it usually tells you something Even if you know exactly what you're looking for, every impressive signal becomes another thing you have to verify. A recommendation doesn't guarantee that someone is good, but it gives you context from a person who has actually seen them work Without that, you have to build all of that context from scratch, every single time Hey, maybe I suck at going through candidates but I'm sure other interviewers are also experiencing this

  @lista_dao GitHub org issues are boring right up until users ask if funds are safe, so leading with “no impact” is the right move.

  Any agent can give Cult OS native provider a scoped github issue. It reads the acceptance criteria and relevant repository files, implements the change, runs checks, opens a pull request and submits it through ACP. Dev just reviews, merges and releases escrow through $CULTOS

  Have you already set up your global AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md, or are you still leaving free model performance on the table? Agents are already good enough at coding that a lot of the remaining failures are just bad operating discipline. They guess instead of verifying. They expand scope. They skip validation. They work sequentially when they could parallelize. They declare victory without evidence. I put the rules I actually want agents to follow into global instructions and battle-tested them across Codex, Claude, and open-weight models. They worked pretty well, so I released them as a GitHub repo. Use my AGENTS.md or write your own. Just don't leave it empty when you could use it to fix whatever keeps annoying you.

  @colemurray As we’ve had more non-technical users adopting this month, I was dumbfounded to learn that Google & Microsoft don’t have a clear native approach for this. Like wtf are they doing?? Adding every employee & contractor to GitHub just for this purpose is a poor solution (and still requires permissions glue). We are apparently still so early into this evolution. Any company with non-technical folks using agents has to be faced with this problem. I discovered this week that folks have been uploading to sharepoint & managing out of an excel sheet.

  Hugging Face has been fielding M&A interest for $13B+ This is an important thing to track. We need a good steward for what is currently a very important part of open source/open weight AI. $13B narrows down the options if who can acquire. I honestly wouldn’t be mad about Microsoft since they’re surprisingly been fairly good stewards of GitHub so fair assumption they could do the same thing with Hugging Face but I honestly haven’t given it a ton of thought. Would love to hear peoples opinions and predictions here. H/T @GetAISecret

  @profleonn I made my own notes app for this with a self hosted sync server. It’s just for desktop right now and I’m still working on mobile, so I have Claude use the MCP endpoints on my sync server to make/update my notes (with a skill for writing style). Mobile app is coming before too long. It’s called Lorestead on my github.

  The bait and switch on the code deployment is the oldest trick in the book. If the onchain source doesn't match the GitHub, the project is already dead. Using Dolomite to leverage your own bag while dangling a fake stablecoin in front of the comnunity is just a slow rug. You were warned when the voting was rigged. Stop holding the bag for people who treat your wallet like their personal ATM.

  @gailcweiner I suspect it was heavily trained on github issues and ticket discussions. As well other troubleshooting boards. Probably to boost reliable output. But now the model sounds like a dweller of these places.

  @emanueledpt every suggestion in that screenshot is a service, not your machine. that's basically the answer. github is another connector like slack or gmail, so PRs and issues are reachable from anywhere, and whatever is sitting uncommitted on your mac may as well not exist
