  Hey @thsottiaux and team at @OpenAIDevs - since the last update, Codex App has been insanely CPU hungry on my Mac. There are dozens of issues about it on GitHub. The culprit seems to be the Codex Helper and Codex Helper (Renderer) processes. It's getting to the point where the app is hardly usable. Fix on the horizon?

  5. GitHub's Own Storage Layer - Spokes GitHub built a custom storage layer called Spokes that manages repository replication. Every repo has 3 live replicas at all times. Reads are served from the nearest one. Writes are confirmed only after 2 of 3 replicas acknowledge. This is the same pattern as most distributed databases. GitHub just built it specifically for *** objects. 100 million developers. 330 million repositories. Not one commit lost. The reliability isn't magic. It's ***'s design + smart replication + a storage layer built for exactly this problem. Every time you push - you're trusting a system that was designed to be more reliable than any single machine can be.

  GitHub needs to fix this rate limits bugs. Daily limit, then boom weekly limit.

  @1__of_1 Since April last year you can see who lost it all, some survived till 10/10, some then survived until this January You see more and more desperation and scam posting, I just saw a dude post an obvious fake github, must be down bad to do so

  @github @GitHubCopilot I pay for Copilot Pro and the mobile coding agent is failing before it edits anything. Simple task: create 3 basic JS smoke-test files. Actual failure: *** rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEADHEAD exit 128 Then: *** checkout copilot/add-js-smoke-test exit 1 This looks like an agent setup bug, not a repo/code issue. Can someone help route this?

  @henry_daggett One of the recurring issues I’ve had over the years is that some types of software are hard to experience properly unless you spend a wasteful amount of time preparing (e.g. creating a project and using GitHub to keep the code). I’d prefer to listen to other people’s experience.

  You need an AI pair programmer to write boilerplate, debug logic, and speed up execution. What are your options? GitHub Copilot sends your proprietary codebase to Microsoft servers to feed their massive models. ChatGPT requires you to paste your sensitive intellectual property directly into a public web interface. Cursor forces your entire development workflow through a centralized cloud proxy. In 2026, writing code at speed requires either paying permanent rent for cloud subscriptions or surrendering your company's intellectual property to corporate training engines. Someone built an architecture to bypass this entirely. It acts as your own private AI pair programmer. No data scraping. No cloud dependency. It is called Continue. Install the extension directly inside VS Code or JetBrains. Connect it to a local model running on your own hardware via Ollama. You get lightning-fast autocomplete and chat that never touches the internet. The technical leverage: - Absolute sovereignty. Your proprietary code, logic, and API keys never leave your physical hard drive. - Zero subscription fees. You stop paying a monthly tax to Microsoft just to generate basic functions. - Deep local context. It indexes your exact workspace securely, understanding your specific architecture without uploading it to a third-party server. - Offline execution. You can generate code on an airplane with zero latency. The corporate system wants you renting access to basic intelligence. They build artificial paywalls around code generation to extract recurring revenue forever. Continue tears down the AI monopoly. It is open-source, highly performant, and keeps your intellectual property exactly where it belongs: entirely under your control. Stop playing by their rules. Stop leaking your codebase. Build your own leverage and direct your own reality.

  @llmDestructor 👀 I think part of the problem is running chron jobs w/ github actions. Should just do it on my own machine

  Well it was nice while the Opus4.6 and Claude Code and GitHub actions setup was humming along for me....but having to rethink with Opus4.7 and the most recent Claude Code updates. Doing a review and refactor of my agents, memory claude code. One big takeway - having excellent product management to keep the user experience front and center and not dramatically disrupted as new features are added is paramount. Anthropic has fallen down on that front IMHO. Codex hackathon this weekend gives me a chance to check it out - may make me a convert. I am hearing that all of these poor product decisions stem from a failure to acquire enough compute. Uggg. I'll give it the day to see if I can get back on track. I need to release before Monday for a customer.

  @TylerNickerson @github React isn't necessarily the problem. React makes it easier to write bad frontend code, because it makes it easier to write frontend code in general.

  @planefag Github could fix this issue and still appease the devellopers in the replies by just making it so when you first visit the website asking if you are a Contributor or a User, creating a cookie, then giving an extremely similified view with just the downloads and readme for users.

  @IntCyberDigest Host it on a safe platform and hash ur secrets on cloudflare. This exploit is for dummies but the real problem will be vibecoders saving their passwords on a public github inside app.tsx or something dumb like that. Hackers will hack

  All this AI tooling chatter feels like chasing shiny objects. Claude Code, Cursor, Codex... sounds like a feature checklist, not real impact. Engineers need tools that solve actual problems, not fill a deck with buzzwords. GitHub Copilot's usefulness comes from integration into workflows, not because it's the latest hype. AI tools should enhance productivity, not just add complexity. Innovation's cool, but let's cut the noise and focus on real utility. #AIFatigue #DeveloperRealityCheck

  The big problem with everything legal I’ve ever done is MS Word and redlines. Legal needs a github - markdown, diffable, mergeable, etc. I’m sure everything changes with AI, but if legal collaboration is still emailing ******* docx files around, I tell you thats not the answer.

  @douglascamata @GergelyOrosz @Pragmatic_Eng I completely agree with this point. Their GitHub copilot web interface is riddled with bugs and on most days it's just broken. Same with everything else...

  GitHub Copilot quietly changed their training-data opt-in defaults in April. if you missed the email, your code may have been opted in. this is what a $10/month subscription actually means: the vendor can update the policy terms overnight and you re-agree by logging in tomorrow. there's no negotiation. there's no refund. there's just a checkbox you have to go find. pay-once tools don't have this problem. you bought the software. they're done with you. link below 👇

  why doesnt the github team just ask copilot to fix their reliability problem?

  Glitch Truth (@glitchtruth) reported 44 minutes ago

  GitHub Copilot completes 46% of code written at Amazon right now. Junior developer hiring at Amazon is down 35% year over year. They did not announce this. It came out in an internal memo. Here is what 46% means: every other line a junior dev would write is already written. At 70% completion the role is redefined. At 90% it does not exist. Amazon already knows which number they are targeting.

  Nishant Soni (@sonink) reported 47 minutes ago

  @rohanpaul_ai I think the solution is simple - instead of 1 commit for every feature - do 1 commit for a bunch of related features. And the reason is not just Github load, but the cognitive load on each developer. With AI doing most of the heavy lifting, its cognitively easier to just club multiple related features together and then do a batch commit. But I wouldn't move out of Github for this. Github can easily enforce a 'cost' on each commit and fix this.

  Running everything as code on GitHub has always been better than anything else, even before LLMs. The problem was normal/non-programing people can never understand how to work with it. LLMs don't change this. So I'm really excited to see how this trend turns out.
