    @github's can the default merge commit titles be more useful please vs having to click or mouse over? The poor but standard format is: "Merge pull request #321 from repo/badly_named_branch... Fix typo in README" With the last bit hidden by default vs coming first.

  • thunder_client Thunder Client (@thunder_client) reported

    @azamsharp Hi, Is that happening with all the requests? Can you close vscode and open again and check if that works. If the error is still there please create bug on our GitHub page, we will find the issue.

  • rob_dodson Rob Dodson (@rob_dodson) reported

    Has anyone had an issue where all of their GitHub notifications show up as already read in the inbox?

  • nihilistMTA Nihilist MTA (@nihilistMTA) reported

    L trains are delayed in both directions because github was down. don't ask.

  • joaoabrantis João Abrantes (@joaoabrantis) reported

    @MamdouhMoemin It happened to me once, the copycat posted on Medium, Reddit and Github. It was taken down on Medium and Reddit for copyright infringement. In the end he edited his github repo to credit my blog post (the reproducing code was his).

  • Prajwxl Prajwal ⠕ (@Prajwxl) reported

    @akbirthko Yep, it should be like here's a problem and you have to solve it in given amount of time. If it works anyhow, you won. Maybe to avoid kids from copying you can block stackoverflow and GitHub. Also please no writing programs on paper 😭😭.

  • michlbrmly Michael Bromley (@michlbrmly) reported

    @bahmutov Yes. I'm not mad at GitHub Actions though. It's better than some other CI services I have used. I just hate it when I spend an entire pristine afternoon on a CI trial-and-error-athon.

  • AeaData AEA Data Editor (@AeaData) reported

    Once authors have identified a particular version of the code, there remains of course the issue that Github & Co. are not “trusted repositories”. So authors will still need to somehow archive that particular version.

  • FerryColum Colum Ferry (@FerryColum) reported

    @THEjoezack I finally found a reason to use it today. I have a few tabs related to a GitHub issue so I grouped them by the issue name

  • dave_stewart Dave Stewart (@dave_stewart) reported

    @liran_tal So I just ran the tool on my GitHub source... it looks like I've done well! Only 3 medium issues where Snyk hadn't understood the context of the code. But I like the tool!

  • mstea_ebooks oǝW ǝp ʎʇsıW (@mstea_ebooks) reported

    Committing tons of DMCA notices to Github, takes down repos like CyanogenMod

  • mntmn lukas f. hartmann (@mntmn) reported

    the fix is in that fork on github of someone else who tried a similar thing once

  • jaffsoft Jean-François Côté (@jaffsoft) reported

    @SonarCloud @SonarQube Any news on this bug? I didn't receive an answer and the problem keep occuring on Github, blocking me to clean all the PR. Thanks

  • MagentoNinja Jakub Winkler (@MagentoNinja) reported

    @sunil1190 - there are only 3 or 4 active contributors who will have to get used to new flow. - reported issues will be closed on github and people will simply forgot that some patches / changes needs to be merged into the code

  • Fantominium Eternal (@Fantominium) reported

    Also trying to gain more succinct information on the error (online and in vscode itself) but no luck. I'm on Mac OS big Sur and my vscode version is 1.23.1. I could be looking in the wrong place, but I'm not seeing any issues on the GitHub repo that outlines my issue,

  • _riteshhh Ritesh Gupta (@_riteshhh) reported

    I'm making a list of problems which might benefit from a reactive solution using `Combine`, let me know if you know such practical problems that you might have encountered yourself or seen somewhere? Will open source the solution using Combine (and maybe async/await) on github!

  • Louis_CAD Louis CAD (@Louis_CAD) reported

    @ZacSweers tools.jar is JDK 8 only AFAIK, it's been removed in subsequent JDKs I think. I had the same issue with the Kotlin project (JetBrains/kotlin on GitHub).

  • simple_beep Simple Beep podcast (@simple_beep) reported

    Fun tidbit here: the GitHub org for this project is ‘avaraline’, a name that has survived from the Avara Hotline server (which Ed spent way too much of high school on).

  • armadsen Andrew Madsen (@armadsen) reported

    @Ryan_Holdaway @ryanallred @LambdaSchool Oh, right. For me, the problem is that I've never worked (as a dev) at a place that uses GitHub for repo hosting.

  • IanDPeake Ian Peake (@IanDPeake) reported

    @dnewman4952 Thanks, I've no idea at this stage. But do feel free to raise an issue on the github project. The main challenge is I don't have a wearOS device to do proper testing.

  • CrowdHailer Peter Saxton (@CrowdHailer) reported

    @louispilfold I just cut mine right down and said look at github. dunno if it worked yet though

  • HeyEoghy Eoghan Hulbert (@HeyEoghy) reported

    Imagine if dev jobs stopped accepting resumes and started asking applicants to submit actual apps to solve a business problem. Worst case, you don’t get the job. Best case, now you have it on your GitHub for other jobs to see your effort and work. #devjobs

  • whileydave David J. Pearce (@whileydave) reported

    @ftomasse Right, and that is annoying. I guess it will change at some point. My problem is that deployments to Maven Central is taking 12hrs+ to be visible to a github action.

  • magnemg Magne (@magnemg) reported

    The most terrible one, UX-wise, by far, must be: - GitHub

  • fuyutarow fuyutarow🐿️ (@fuyutarow) reported

    @Jay59009444 If you have any questions about the content of the book, would it be better to ask via github issues or email?

  • DiscordNews_ Discord News (@DiscordNews_) reported

    nope its for GitHub hackathon its a server template also there are strings related to it "Create a server for your hackathon" "Your hackathon – all together in one place." GUILD_TEMPLATE_MODAL_TITLE_GITHUB_HACKATHON

  • GJ_Both Gert-Jan (@GJ_Both) reported

    hey @overleaf is your github import service down? Can't seem to create a new project through import from github...

  • whileydave David J. Pearce (@whileydave) reported

    @talios @ftomasse @aalmiray Its not Maven Central that’s the problem for me here. Its that my github action cannot see packages on Maven Central. Github is caching them but only seems to update the cache a few times a day. Af least thats what I’m trying to figure out! Publishing to both would solve it

  • neilrkaye Neil Kaye (@neilrkaye) reported

    @tylermorganwall I just tried installing it but got issue so I raised it as a bug on github but it is quite possible I did something wrong! I tried install.packages("rayvertex")

  • LMcUnderwood Lorraine Underwood (@LMcUnderwood) reported

    I forgot my phone today. So I can't login to github. I can't take a photo of my setup to email work colleagues. I couldn't look up road works in Preston or find a shop I was looking for. Luckily I had a bank card with me so I could at least pay for things!
