    People keep asking Github Copilot for code review. This is so stupid because its reviews are terrible, sending otherwise good PRs that would have been quick merges in crazy directions, and I'm getting completely spammed by this non-stop-slop. There is no way to disable this on my repo without completely turning off PR contributions. If @github doesn't stop this insane behaviour I will move to Gitlab or Codeberg or somewhere. Please help I don't want this. I don't want this. I don't want this.

    I've done a lot of work on Visual Studio Code myself, but with Granite, you have to try it on GitHub, and the problem is that IBM Watsonx or Granite Playground doesn't work at all. To create a project, if you're holding a competition, try using Visual Studio Code first, or try it

    Bring your own AI agent. Claude Code · Cursor · Codex · GitHub Copilot — any MCP client. AppCrane now ships an MCP server. Your agent calls deploy, env, branch, push, open_pr directly — from the editor or CLI you already use.

    13/ Hit the fsck_filesystems wall. Phone kernel-panics 60 sec into fsck on the partial system partition. Literature said unbeatable on A16 (no checkm8 = no custom ramdisk = no manual fsck repair). Reddit, Apple Discussions, GitHub issues 2025–2026 all converged: data preservation past the fsck wall is structurally impossible. Refused.

    WTF GitHub?! My brand new personal account got flagged instantly for no reason. SMS verification is totally broken — "request limit" error every time. Can't even verify my number. GitHub used to be great but lately it’s gone downhill @github Fix this mess!

    GitHub is down again. PR broken. Goodluck to everyone who has to push out a hot fix to production because reviews are borked

    .@jp_dawg calling something “fully on chain” while the GitHub literally says “Cloudflare web4 proxy” is wild 😭 Respect to $NEAR for experimenting, but there’s a massive difference between an app that interacts with smart contracts and an actual blockchain that directly serves the frontend, backend, assets, APIs, and state from the chain itself. $ICP canisters are the server. No AWS. No traditional hosting. No Web2 bandaids. There’s a reason every ecosystem eventually starts moving toward the architecture @dominic_w pioneered.

    @nummanali same hesitation here. i give my agents access to github, n8n workflows, even my home server apis... but gmail? that's where i draw the line. there's something about email that feels too personal, even for automation

    WordPress Playground is so sick I have this crazy idea to run WordPress in CI using Playground and Homeboy This means I can have an AI agent running on a WordPress site that is self-contained inside of a GitHub repo No server OR browser required! Stay tuned

    I am happily using codex with following plugins: figma, google mail, calendar, drive, github, superpower, hyperframe, remotion. I am not someone with excessive plugin installation; just average. However, when I dig deeper. Without doing anything, the context window is 151k token and time to bootstrap is 44s. Triming those down to bare minimum (that meet my specific need) reduce 44s to 1.05s. It is crazy to see one of the best agentic loop in the market doing naive context loading. To achieve what? the AGI feeling with the cost of efficiency and accuracy. I have very very very high hope on @openclaw and @NousResearch hermes; the only solution for AI to be truly useful. Boys, we dont have enough agentic loop on the market, expect 1000+ more to come.

    GitHub going down frequently because AI push a **** ton of PR is kinda funny.

    The only thing worse than a broken GitHub is a GitHub that claims it's not broken but is actually broken in subtle ways - in my case lost PR metadata across many repos

    As soon as Github Actions start working again I will get a "The imports and exports are not sorted." error in CI.

    @alexwtlf neither. build a thing you'd use every day for the next 6 months. if it happens to be a SaaS, cool. if it's a mobile app, cool. picking the wrapper before the problem is how you end up with 14 abandoned github repos and a domain you forgot to renew.

    @Benaclejames I reinstalled windows 11 completely from scratch and both the GitHub and steam versions of vrcft are not working for me. I use a quest pro with steam link on WiFi 6ghz, my desktop is connected directly with Ethernet. I had it working last week on windows 10 ltsc with the steamlink module.

    @ahall_research A counter argument: GitHub is below 95% availability, or down for 20 days per year. It has some of the best devs in the world working on it. The complaint is about Canvas being hacked and down. Vibed alternatives will be down, hacked, buggy, and a pain to maintain.

    this is the most expensive GitHub repo Udemy will read this year. 4,000 free programming books. 2,000 free courses. 43 languages. 387,000 stars. And somehow it's still the best-kept secret in self-taught engineering. It's called free-programming-books. Here's why every paid education platform should be panicking right now. Bootcamps charge $15,000 to teach you what's already sitting in this repo for free. Udemy charges $200 per course for content the original authors put on this list themselves. Coursera locks Stanford lectures behind a paywall while the same professors uploaded their full syllabus into this repo two years ago. The whole industry was built on you not knowing the index existed. → 4,000+ free books across every language from Python and Rust down to assembly, COBOL, and quantum computing → 2,000+ free courses from Harvard, MIT, Stanford, freeCodeCamp, and current Google engineers → Translated into 43 spoken languages so it isn't English-only gatekept → Interactive playgrounds, podcasts, screencasts, problem sets, and cheatsheets all in the same tree → 2,000+ contributors maintaining it, administered by a US non-profit that takes zero ad revenue Now read this part slowly. Every coding course you've ever bought was a wrapper around publicly available material. The instructor didn't write the textbook. They read it, repackaged it, and charged you for the convenience of not finding it yourself. The entire $20 billion online coding education industry exists because the foundation was already free. Bootcamps. Subscription platforms. $5,000 "career accelerators." Every tier you've ever paid for was an apology for nobody telling you the source material has been sitting on GitHub since 2011. free-programming-books fixed that. The math on every paid coding curriculum just changed. Free education at zero markup isn't a discount. It's you no longer paying for the platform's middleman fee. Stack Overflow had the answer in 2011. Someone forked it to GitHub. 14 years later it has 387K stars and quietly outranks almost every product ever shipped on the platform. Udemy was the self-taught dev's default. That sentence is now in the past tense. CC BY 4.0. 100% Opensource.

    @ndrewpignanelli issue on your end? "The security CI check failed with: "The job was not started because recent account payments have failed or your spending limit needs to be increased." This is a GitHub Actions billing issue on the Cofounder-Customer-Projects org account."

    Github is really slow, clunky, buggy and a very bad shape right now.

  • endingwithali
    ali (@endingwithali) reported

    github literally almost made me cry today. I was under so much pressure to get this ticket done, but it required running CI/CD across a bunch of other microservices. Because of the GitHub Actions outages, all the checks kept failing, and I fully started spiraling. I genuinely thought I had broken something in other services. I literally felt like a failure of an engineer. Turns out, the container failures were happening because @github Actions was having issues maintaining containers. Once things stabilized, I finally got all green checks, got approvals from my coworkers, and slammed that merge button like my life depended on it. “Come with me” inspired by @daadisnacks

    @GergelyOrosz True, the brand is damaged. But GitHub Copilot's edge has faded too since 2023. Cursor and others passed it. So maybe the whole Microsoft AI approach is the real issue, not just branding.

  • TinfoilAI
    Tinfoil (@TinfoilAI) reported

    A big problem was supporting Sigstore verification. Tinfoil clients need to check the full software supply chain via the Sigstore transparency log. This is how the SDK checks that the code and model weights running in our inference enclaves match our open source release on GitHub

    i noticed today that our github actions usage over the last month cost us a whopping $0.88 to build our software. so, i decided to move it in-house onto an actions runner. setting this up properly is a pain because you really need to build your own isolation. for safety, your builds should run in ephemeral VMs, similar to how github actions works. i used Codex to build the whole thing for me. it gave me step-by-step instructions for setting up the GH App and private key, wrote the shell scripts, configured the systemd units, then debugged everything over ssh directly on the server. what would have taken me hours or days, along with filling my brain with a bunch of esoteric devops knowledge that i really don't care about, was done in under 30 minutes. now we have two idle runners. one takes a build job, runs it, then dies and gets reaped. the second takes over while the first resets. my mind is blown. if you're not all in on AI, i feel for you.
