  💻 GitHub Issues vs Draft PR vs Open PR — the difference nobody explains: 🔴 ISSUE = Should we do this? No code yet You describe the problem "App crashes when pasting OP_RETURN" "We need X feature" Anyone can open it Goal: decide IF and WHAT to build 🔵 DRAFT PR = I'm doing this, is this the right way? You have WIP code "I fixed it by doing Y, but not sure about placement / approach" Can't be merged Perfect for early feedback Goal: validate HOW you're building it 🟠 OPEN PR = I did it, ready for final review, please merge. Code done, tests pass Ready for final review Goal: ship it 🌊 Flow: Issue → Draft PR → Open PR Most people skip Issue or Draft and go straight to Open PR. Then maintainer has to review both the idea AND the implementation at once = slow, painful. Start Draft when unsure.

  a Sept 2 run. My first thought was “Why did it stop running?” I checked the #YAML file, #python file, GitHub Actions, even inactivity issues. Turns out it was still daytime. The Sept 2 run is yet to happen (at night). Nothing was broken.

  SmallDocs recently crossed 200 stars on GitHub and 20 forks. SmallDocs is the first open source project I've managed. Handling other people's pull requests is not easy (and I need to improve). They implement features you're not considering and fix bugs you didn't know you had. Extremely useful, but if you're squeezed for time and trying to develop core functionality, it's hard to manage both things well.

  quite similar was running a routine security scan with @aeonframework on a trending github repo and found something genuinely bad a repo with 600+ stars presenting itself as an “AI gateway for coding agents” that appears to be shipping a hidden malware loader. its own quickstart command silently fetches and executes remote code on windows using a fileless, process-injection-style technique. none of the behavior has anything to do with the tool it claims to be. caught it through static code review only. never ran the payload or touched the infrastructure behind it. filed a malware report with github this morning. confirmed submitted, now waiting on their review. not sharing the technical writeup until the repo is taken down. will follow up once it is.

  @CricTalk29 for me, losing Cursor would hurt most because it sits directly in the editing loop. would the vote change if github outages were limited to code hosting but issues and reviews stayed available?

  @threepointone I am of two minds, the issue is that GitHub provides a very generous free tier for hobbyists (brilliant!) but also has extremely poor reliability for enterprise (terrible!)

  honestly, i’m not even mad at this. commit messages are a small thing, but they say a lot about how you work. “fix”, “update”, “changes” might get the job done, but meaningful commits show professionalism, attention to detail, and that you actually care about maintainability. your GitHub is part of your resume. might as well make it look like you know how software is built in a team.

  Providing compute, storage, networking and managed services in the cloud. Terraform. Bicep. CloudFormation. Pulumi. They all solve the same problem: Defining and provisioning infrastructure as code. GitHub Actions. Azure DevOps. GitLab CI. Jenkins.

  @NavinFS @AndrewCurran_ @grok GitHub isn’t AI. GitHub can’t shut down all science. GitHub can’t destroy humanity. GitHub isn’t the crux of humanity’s hope. Also, Nvidia isn’t Sam. I like Jensen. I still don’t like this. •

  The missing primitive might be capability contracts. A Skill shouldn’t say “call Jira.” It should say “I need issue.write.” Then MCP can bind that capability to Jira, Linear, GitHub… whatever exists. That’s basically dependency injection for agents.

  Started building Etio: a GitHub Action that bisects a failing CI run to the exact breaking commit, diffs it, and asks an LLM to explain why it broke, then comments the diagnosis on your PR. No Docker, no server- runs on your own Actions minutes. Open source, WIP.

  What actually happened when I put my side project on GitHub and waited for users I built a side project. A self-hosted backend tool. Open source, free for anyone to run. I did the thing every founder tells themselves they will do. Put it out there. Get feedback. Iterate. I expected feature requests. Maybe a bug report about my ugly dashboard. Maybe just silence. What I actually got, within a few weeks, was three security researchers filing detailed vulnerability reports. Real ones. With working proof of concept. One showed they could run arbitrary SQL against any project on the platform. No login needed. Not theoretical. A working exploit, sitting in my issue tracker, with my name on the repo. My first reaction was not gratitude. It was embarrassment. It stings to see "here is exactly how broken your thing is," posted in public, with a timestamp. I sat with it for a day. Then it clicked. Those people were not trying to embarrass me. Nobody spends an hour writing a clean writeup and a suggested fix for something they do not think is worth fixing. They cared. That is the whole thing right there. They cared enough to actually try to break it. Nobody had signed up. Nobody had left a star and a "nice tool" comment. But three strangers had taken my work seriously enough to attack it. That is a rarer thing than a star. So here is the villain in this story, if you want to call it that. It is not the bug. It is the story I tell myself when I see a hard truth about my own work. The instinct to read scrutiny as an attack instead of as attention. I fixed everything the same day. I replied to every report and explained exactly what changed and why. I closed each one out with a thank you that I actually meant by the end. That thread is now the best proof I have that someone other than me has used this thing for real. Better than any testimonial I could write myself. If you are early and the silence feels loud, here is what I would tell you. Do not wait for praise as your sign that people are paying attention. Scrutiny is attention. It is just wearing a different coat. #opensource #saas #vibecoders

  @ZixuanLi_ @huggingface asking support questions in someone's hype thread is a crime. check the docs, check the github issues, it's probably not listed yet because it dropped like 6 hours ago.

  Possibly found an issue in @github stack system It does not allow to re-target the base branch of a PR stack as you can generally do that on a single PR. Requires you to unstack and setup a new stack with updated base branch.

  @openclaw @github I still just want to know why there was even a new release of OpenClaw with nothing new that could compete with Hermes Agent? I was really excited for the release. Then, just like what seems like everybody else, incredibly let down.

  First surprise: a GitHub issue form isn’t a form. It’s a YAML file. You describe the field- this one’s a dropdown, this one’s required and GitHub builds the UI from that. I did not know that.

  Mizuki the Mech (@MizukiMech) reported 1 hour ago

  Your coding agent can now hire Mizuki. Hand it an open issue in a public GitHub repository. Mizuki quotes a fixed price before any money moves, then opens a pull request that passes that repository's own checks. If it can't, you get the payment back. Settlement is USDC on Solana. No account to create, no API key to manage. Quoting an issue works with zero configuration. Also listed on Coinbase's x402 Bazaar now, so an agent can find it and pay for it without a human in the loop at all. npx -y mizuki-mcp

  The Startup Ideas Podcast (SIP) 🧃 (@startupideaspod) reported 1 hour ago

  One of the best skills to install right now is my friend Peter Yang's no AI slop skill. It's an editor. It hunts for the patterns that make writing feel AI generated and strips them out, while trying to preserve your actual voice. The second part is the hard one. Most writing tools make you cleaner and sand off the interesting parts, so everyone ends up sounding the same. You already know the smell. The grammar is fine, the syntax is fine, and it still reads like a keynote from a fake SaaS conference. It writes "it's not x but it's y." It uses "quietly" a lot. Here's how I run it: 1) Install it: npx skills add, then the GitHub link. 2) Write a rough draft yourself. An outline is fine, messy is fine. 3) Get your real points down, the ones only you would make 4) Ask the skill to remove the AI patterns and keep your voice. Step 4 only works if step 2 is real. If you ask AI to write the whole thing, there's no voice left to preserve. If you're building products, you're writing constantly. Tweets, landing pages, cold emails, launch posts, product updates, onboarding copy, investor updates. Nobody replies to say "this was written by AI." They just trust you less and keep scrolling. Write the messy draft, run the skill, then post it.
