    @mattpocockuk I used yours with one good rule...every agent and context window must avoid hit 40%. If needed run /handoff with the summary and tracer-bullet tasks to next session. So i can run /clear and startover next tasks. My tracer bullet use github mcp server to create issues to track.

    Bioinformatics pet peeve: When a software repository contains a major omission in the documentation, a user flags the problem with the repo owner, and then the repo owner responds to the user with the answer without correcting the documentation and closes the issue on GitHub

    There have been few companies using AI tools whose expenses have gone up than coming down and humans are cheaper. As happened with Claude users. Microsoft is ending most of its internal, standalone Claude Code licenses by June 30, shifting its internal engineering teams to use its own GitHub Copilot CLI instead. This decision was driven by skyrocketing token-based AI costs and a strategic push to consolidate tools within its own ecosystem. More will follow. NASDAQ was high on AI infact on steroids . Steroids will come off .

    2. Never trust the memory. - Not yours. - Not Claude's. If the answer exists in docs, GitHub issues, Reddit, or release notes... - verify it. AI sounds confident when it's wrong. That's what makes it dangerous.

    Meanwhile the company Microsoft has been pissing billions into like a broken slot machine is rumored to be building a GitHub successor. $13 billion into OpenAI and they're out here building a successor. Guess it's a better investment than whatever that Activision acquisition was.

    One crafted GitHub issue was enough. In agent mode, Claude Code treated hidden instructions as trusted commands. It leaked OIDC workflow credentials that attackers could replay for repo write access. The action bypassed checks on bot actors too. Fixed in v1.0.94. Audit your workflows.

    Built Stackly today. It watches your GitHub repos, reviews every PR, writes code, and ships fixes — while you sleep. No prompts needed. Autonomous code reviews are broken. This fixes that.

    Hot take: the open source tools that survive long term are the ones that solve a problem the maintainer actually has. Not the ones built to be a startup. Not the ones chasing GitHub stars. The ones where the dev is also the most annoyed user. Kyrelo started that way. We got fed up paying Buffer to do something simple. What open source tool are you grateful someone built out of frustration? #opensource #github #developers

    @polydao Bro is still trying to farm GitHub handles using OpenAI Codex, a program that was officially shut down in 2023. Forinking a repository and making fake commits won't get you a $1,200 subscription, it just makes your profile look like a desperate spam bot. Stop lying for impressions.

    @WilsonCusack X search used to be great for URLs. I could find the first time a website was posted. Now I get “similar” results, which is horrible for GitHub repos. It is essentially broken for my use case.

    $TEAM Few people love Jira. But even fewer leave it. This paradox summarizes Atlassian's entire business model. Jira, Confluence, Bitbucket, Loom — embedded in software teams' daily lives. Switching is technically expensive and culturally nearly impossible. Rovo AI: searches across Jira, Confluence and all company data, summarizes, creates tasks. Extra fee, customers pay. Server to Cloud migration complete. New growth: AI and large enterprise deals. 300,000+ customers, revenue growth 20%+. Risks: modern competitors like Microsoft, GitHub, Linear. Jira is genuinely complex. I have a let-winners-run philosophy. A company using Jira doesn't leave. A company that doesn't leave pays extra for AI features. Not investment advice.

    @rauchg I was seriously thinking of building this and i had a quick prototype. I didn't further spending energy on this cuz of 3 issues 1. most skills are reused: at beginning i install a lot of skills at user level, and then just keep using what's working for me. searching from public space is less of a strong need. 2. skill ranking is hard. think of google works because of page rank. i figure semantic search + github star is much more noisy. you probly need to do really expension batch eval to verify what works or have enough traffic to do ranking. therefore, vercel has a much higher chance to make it work 3. internal skill >> public skills. skill is much more value if people within the same company use it to share the tribal knowledge. still very happy Vercel did it otherwise i would always be curious how good it could be

    @n00bmind @thestanduppod Re: distribution, who cares if one uses apt or yum or dnf or pacman? I don't and one shouldn't. They all work well enough. And Github Actions will happily build you a Linux binary that is universal (enough)? The user's problem is dependencies.

    A 14 year old in China sold his first Python script for $40 on GitHub. The buyer turned out to be his own CS teacher. He did not find out until the first day back at school, when the teacher put it on the projector as an example of professional AI development. The kid was sitting in the third row. In America they are banning teachers from touching ChatGPT. In China a teacher just paid one of his own students for an AI agent and has no idea. He had built it over winter break instead of seeing his friends. Two weeks of asking Claude questions every night after his parents went to sleep. When the $40 came in he spent all of it on a Fortnite skin the same day and went back to coding. He pushed the project to GitHub with a README in broken English. ai agent that does homework and finds answers from any website. It sat at zero stars. He closed the laptop and went to dinner. GitHub Sponsors does not show the buyer's name. Just a username he had never seen. He did not care. The $40 was already a virtual outfit for a character he plays two hours a day. Then February. First class back. The teacher opened with a presentation on AI agents and ran a demo. A Python script that scans websites, pulls the data, summarizes it with Claude and sends structured reports on its own. I found this tool online and it changed how I prepare my lessons. It pulls from thirty sources in three seconds. This used to take me two hours every evening. The kid recognized everything. The variable names. The file structure. The comments he had left in Chinese because he was too lazy to translate them. His teacher was showing his code to forty students as an example of what a professional developer can build. He did not say anything. He went home and checked the fork count. 847. A university in Beijing had forked it to grade two hundred papers overnight. A tutor in Shanghai forked it into a homework checking service and charges parents fifteen dollars a month. A company in Hangzhou turned it into a support bot for an online store. All from a script a bored kid wrote over winter break with Claude. The forty dollars is a Fortnite skin. The code is running in three cities. His teacher still uses it every day and still has no idea who wrote it. The kid never told him. He said it would be too weird to tell your teacher that the tool he shows off to every class was written by the boy in the third row who still gets a B minus on the coding assignments. He gets the B minus for the code he writes in class, by hand. The A plus code is the one he writes at home with Claude. That is the one the teacher bought for forty dollars and presents as professional work. 847 forks. Three companies. One classroom that runs his code every day. He still sits in the third row. He still gets a B minus. Same kid. Same code. The grade just depends on who is looking.

    Just hit my monthly Copilot Student credit limit after literally ONE question 😑 Month just started (June 6). I asked Copilot in VS Code to help me fix a CORS issue. One reply later → 200/200 credits gone. Task still not finished. Credit limit popup + “upgrade or wait until June 30”.This new “pay-per-token” AI model thing makes zero sense on the Student plan. We’re literally students trying to build stuff, not enterprise teams with unlimited budgets. GitHub, can you do something about this. #GitHubCopilot #CopilotStudent #DevLife

    @m2jr Yeah I have them open issues describing the skills they need created or updated. GitHub is not ideal but until there’s a cross ai platform registry for skills works ok.

    PewDiePie just shipped a free self-hosted AI workspace that runs entirely on your machine and your data never touches a server. No subscription. No tracking. No corporate model deciding what you can and cannot do with it. The thing runs any local model or connects to an API. Built-in agent that browses the web, runs files, handles real tasks. Deep research mode that reads sources and writes full reports. A memory system that learns how you work over time and gets smarter the longer you use it. The email assistant reads your inbox, flags what actually matters, and drafts replies in your own writing style. He described one automated reply as the most polite way to tell someone off they will never even notice. There is also a document editor, a calendar, an image editor, a comparison mode, and a tool called Cookbook that scans your hardware and tells you exactly what models your machine can run without breaking. All of it is open source and sitting on GitHub right now. The interesting part is not that it exists. It is what it signals. Every month the gap between paying for AI access and owning your own AI infrastructure gets smaller. The people who figure out how to build on top of free open source tools instead of renting access from the big labs are the ones who keep the margin. The tool is free. The knowledge of what to build with it is not.

    @shub0414 AI hype cycles are brutal Quick reality check on those tools: • Sora: OpenAI shut it down April 26, 2026. Too expensive to run, so they pivoted to ChatGPT, coding, and robotics instead. • DeepSeek: Actually thriving — just dropped V4-Pro (huge MoE model), cheapest high-performer on OpenRouter, and devs are switching to it for massive cost savings. • GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Llama, Perplexity: Still very much alive and baked into daily workflows. They’re no longer “new & shiny” — the market just consolidated around big players and the noise moved on.

    Red builds, broken pipelines, and wasted hours. What if your GitHub Actions could heal themselves? Introducing Helix, an autonomous AI DevOps agent . Instead of scrolling through thousands of lines of failed logs, Helix intercepts the error instantly and takes over the entire triage process. Stop debugging flaky tests. Let Helix autonomously fix your workflows so your team can get back to shipping! 🚀 Here is how it works👇

  • dcominottim
    Dan "18pF flip-flop" (@dcominottim) reported

    @SyntaxError2505 Yeah, but it isn’t that simple. For instance, compression is the Fedora default for both Workstation and Atomic Desktops, but it’s currently broken in both in different ways — if you use manual partioning in the former, the installer doesn’t apply it to fstab, and in the latter it’s a missing kernel argument. (I reported the Anaconda bug for the Workstation case and it was fixed in upstream a couple days ago.) The kernel had a bug that only got fixed in 7.1 (yet to be released) in which small files that are stored inline in inodes and have been marked as incompressible will forever be marked like that and never be candidates for reevaluation. Cool bit: that incompressible flag won’t be fixed by upgrading the kernel; you’d have to mess with low level stuff to manually fix it for existing files/inodes. A feature/part of systemd (don’t recall which now, but I bookmarked the GitHub issue) automatically enables full quotas if the detected filesystem is btrfs, which destroys performance and cause severe stalls if you have lots of snapshots. One of use SUSE btrfs developers commented in the thread, and the fix is not to use quotas at all and use squotas if feasible (the same dev says in the same comment that squotas have its own quirks and that full quotas aren’t fixable because he tried it already and it’s fundamentally incompatible with btrfs’ design that allows fast snapshots). And there are countless things like that 20 years later, and you have to trust that all or most userspace components will be aware of most of those things if btrfs is detected… so…
