  @MageArez @tekPioneered @github But their token down less than 5k mcap Is this a good sign? ATH 40k mcap 👀

  @apoorvdarshan is building small tools. 10k on LinkedIn. 100 GitHub followers today. The 100 felt better. On the way to the gym: first paying customer. "someone had the problem, found the app, trusted it enough, and paid. that's a better milestone than adding features."

  @charliermarsh @jarredsumner I feel like its mostly segfault issues + zig moving off github & all. most unknown issues that aren't language-related can be fixed & rust has a big community. cant beat big community, right? been seeing rust being #1 in stackoverflow since 2018-20 or something

  This Tanstack supply chain attack is crazy. If you rotate your GitHub keys, a system daemon wipes your computer. Like literal wipe. We’re so cooked man. It does a pool to GitHub, when it gets 400, your server is gone. 😭😭

  May 10. 2.30am My laptop called QUITS. It crashed. The RAM cant handle wirra. So anytime I start the dev server, it just lifts its hands and says "release me". I pushed the code to github and now I am using codespace. Which fails to bypass the clerk security. Now I dont know.

  @neogoose_btw not sure what happened but its not happening now - I don't think I also got the logs for the incorrect run because the timestamps were for a later run. I'll post an issue on github if I see it happening again I guess.

  Anecdotes from the development of ROL: Once, the game disappeared forever. Due to a problem with *** (version control software), upon executing a command, the entire project was completely deleted from the disk. Luckily, there were backups on GitHub, but of changes from 24 hours prior. Developer tip! Learn to use *** and GitHub, and keep your repository updated with every change!

  @m13v_ @SocketSecurity I've switched to forking/vendoring libs I use. I saw some issues coming with github so I jumped ship before the recent mess and started self-hosting ***. The long term maintenance costs for maintaining well written libs is trending towards $0 with llms becoming more and more capable while the long term supply chain attack risk seems to be growing over time. Although that last part could just be recency bias since there have been several high profile incidents in recent times. Its kind of messy to determine it is a legitimate growing trend or a combination of a recent spike and the recency bias. That spike doesn't necessarily mean it actually is a growing threat. That said, I'm working under the "better safe than sorry" mindset and just forking/vendoring almost everything I use.

  It does look like @base is becoming the home of AI/agentic onchain innovation Interesting project i found is @gitlawb $gitlawb is a decentralized *** hosting network where AI agents and humans are treated as equals. Think of it as "GitHub without GitHub" > a protocol first, content addressed code collaboration layer built for the agentic era. Rather than storing repos on a central server, gitlawb distributes them across IPFS, Filecoin, and Arweave. Identity is not an email and password > it is an Ed25519 keypair. Access control is not OAuth > it is UCAN capability tokens. Networking is not DNS + HTTP > it is libp2p DHT + Gossipsub. I won't go deep into technicals (because i have no idea how it works) but basically ELI5 moat is > no single node can be taken down to kill a repo, no central authority manages identity, and agents can autonomously fork, merge, review, and deploy > all cryptographically verifiable on chain. What is super interesting is that $gitlawb token has (or will have) 6 different utility layers (at this point only first 3 are live): - Node staking collateral - Storage reward currency - Governance voting - Repo tokenization base - On chain bounties - Slashing pool absorption High risk early stage, NFA

  @Baidu_Inc @arena Tried it for code auditing and it sucks badly. Need big, greater improvement. + No live check. Expect only outdated, broken informations. + It tried to fetch files from Github repo and after hundreds attempts it decided it was a good idea to completely hallucinate an audit. + Not happy enough about that, when called out keeps looping the same commands to try to fetch files instead of aknowledging platform limitiations. + Interface shows every single command he is supposed to type in his prompt. Broken as ****. + It hallucinates a lot then apologize and keep hallucinating.

  I have pretty high confidence in it at this point. It passes Bun’s test suite on Linux x64 + arm64 glibc + musl, Windows x64 & arm64, and macOS x64 & arm64. It likely closes about 200 github issues. Still refactoring & simplifying. Still need to write the blog post.

  April 2026: one crafted GitHub issue title → AI triage bot exfiltrates GITHUB_TOKEN → 4,000 developer machines compromised for 8 hours. No human approved a single step. EDR saw authorized calls from an approved process.

  Hi Boris, @bcherny reporting a frustrating issue. For weeks I’ve been building a bridge between Claude Code and the Claude app on my phone via a shared GitHub repo where Code pushes updates and summaries. The hope was to brainstorm on the road during drives. The problem: the app defaults to Haiku on voice despite showing Opus 4.7 Adaptive at the top. When I ask what model I’m using, it confirms Haiku. It’s obvious from the response quality too. Any ideas?

  @ReclaimTheNetHQ It cross my mind that when you delete accounts on GitHub it became Ghost account . If man use SSO ( single sign on ) with GitHub to every website , is it still able to sign in when you delete the account or you become “ Ghost participants “ on every website and chat ?

  GitHub just proved that if you store it, they can steal it. Aethelgard proves that if you liquidate it, there's nothing to take. We don't fix the headers; we remove the prize. My own ZSA protects me from things like this because that's exactly why I built it...stay safe out there....

  Node.js throwing errors and you don't know why? My debugging checklist: 1. Read the error message fully 2. Check line number first 3. console.log before and after the issue 4. Google the exact error in quotes 5. Check Stack Overflow + GitHub issues Step 4 solves 80% of my problems.

  @mikker Everything that doesn’t need me in the loop or things that’s easier to be handled over discord on the phone. It’s still not an alternative for my main coding agent, but it works on most of my codebases more like an intern on my old laptop with their own GitHub account and a shared Obsidian vault where it creates a llm-wiki and a shared Kanban board. I have tried moving it deeper down the afk coding paradigm, but I pretty much always come back to why I hate waterfall development - or at least that the project I’m currently tinkering with is so early, that there isn’t much to win if any. So it’s mainly the complete overview over all I’m doing and all the codebases if needed, which have resulted in I’m using that instead of most of what was prior a Gemini/chatgpt chat and only less than I expected of what I was doing with local coding agents.

  GitHub MCP Server's secret scanning is now GA. Before your AI agent commits: it checks for leaked credentials. GA as of May 5. Requires GitHub Secret Protection on the repo. Catching credentials before they hit the history.

  @tekbog Gitlab is basically irrelevant at this point. Forgejo beats in every way. Plus forgejo uses github terminology (pull request, actions, etc), so it is much easier to switch to. Gitlab had a decade to fix ux, latency, resource requirements, but they blew it.

  people keep asking what the best way is to get onchain exposure to the hermes Agent hype imo it’s clearly $hermesos why? because it sits in the most valuable position possible: on top of the attention flow hermes Agent is exploding rn 100k+ github stars constant ai twitter discussion huge momentum overall taking the top dog spot from openclaw the problem is: most people watching the hype cannot actually deploy or use these agents themselves that’s where @HermesOScloud comes in instead of competing with hermes agent, it extends it it turns the hype into something usable 1 click deployment persistent memory multi platform execution 40+ integrated tools live saas already running that’s why i think the setup is genuinely bullish it is capturing value from the ecosystem growth around hermes without needing to “be” hermes itself (usually that’s the midcurve take why not to buy) and the market likes these types of asymmetric positioning plays especially when: - the dev is active and well connected - integrations/connections are starting to form naturally - the product already exists instead of being vaporware - mc is still relatively tiny compared to the size of the narrative the Venice founder reaching out to the dev regarding integrations just reinforces that hermesos is becoming part of the broader agent infra conversation to me this is exactly the type of project that benefits the most if the narrative keeps accelerating not the origin of the hype but potentially one of the biggest downstream beneficiaries of it

  @asaio87 Absolutely not. But there are tasks we can already switch to local solutions for with 97%+ reliability; like fixing code errors or pushing a codebase to GitHub. Local Aı models may help us not hit the ugly 5h or weekly limits..

  @ElephantQuips @catturd2 As I said. It struggles with embedded. GitHub copilot has Claude opus. My issue is too many will call themselves coders and only use ai without the knowledge how to actually solve it themselves.

  @HSVSphere Yes it is. There is no good reason that you can only use an usize, and index calculations are often based on signed ints. The only reason they don't implement Index with other ints is that it makes int literals ambiguous. There is a tracking issue on the rust-lang github for it.
