Atlantean Gnosis ☀️ (@AtlanteanGnosis) reported@DionysianAgent When I made an account it said I made it back in 2024, though I don't think I did, is this a glitch or a GitHub thing?
-
Arti | AI Builder (@Artur_roses) reportedClaude Code just took my GitHub issue, wrote the code, ran the tests, and opened a PR. My job: approve it. The dev workflow isn't changing. It already changed.

lollipop (@immlollipop) reported🚨HACKERS MOCK OZEMPIC MAKER FOR "NOVO123" PASSWORD Hackers breached Novo Nordisk in March via a stolen GitHub token and just leaked 264 GB of data while mocking its weak security. The attack ran for over 2 months. - The hackers say Novo Nordisk used simple passwords like "novo123" on critical systems - Source code and proprietary details on Ozempic and pipeline drugs were stolen - Clinical trial data on employees, doctors, and patients got exposed - Private internal AI models from the company were also taken This breach shows how a single weak password can bring down even the biggest names in pharma

Jarrad Grigg (@jarradgrigg) reportedYou build stuff and host on GitHub publically? Paste this into a coding-agent session and point it at your own GitHub account. This is happening way too much. ROTATE YOUR KEYS. Review my public GitHub repositories for accidentally exposed environment secrets. Scope: - Only inspect repositories I own or explicitly authorize. - Focus on public repos first. - Check current files and *** history. - Look for API keys, tokens, private keys, database URLs, OAuth secrets, webhooks, cloud credentials, .env files, config dumps, and hardcoded secrets. Safety rules: - Do not print full secrets in chat. - Redact values, showing only provider/type, file path, line, commit SHA if relevant, and a short masked prefix/suffix. - Do not test or validate secrets by calling third-party APIs. - Do not open PRs, issues, or comments that expose findings publicly. - If a likely secret is found, assume it is compromised and tell me to rotate or revoke it. Deliverable: - A prioritized report of confirmed or likely exposed secrets. - Exact repo/file/line/commit references. - Recommended rotation steps by provider. - Cleanup guidance for removing secrets from current files and *** history. - Prevention recommendations: .gitignore, env templates, secret scanning, pre-commit hooks, and CI checks.

I’m (@stackoverworld) reportedAnd then I can't answer on simple Qs: what was the issue? How I fixed it? How even to QA it.... This is the fundamental problem of such workflows. Telling "Check my slack, do this, qa, and using GitHub to push" is good, but I don't learn from this at all

wispem-wantex (@wispem_wantex) reportedI think a reasonable compromise would be to henceforth hold Anthropic responsible for any security breaches or service outages. Every time Github goes down, Anthropic should be fined

Pascual ⚡ (@0xPascual) reportedA high school kid opens an account, plugs in Claude 5, and turns a few hundred dollars of lunch money into a six-figure trading account over the weekend. The screenshot goes viral, the replies fill up with people begging for the GitHub repo, and the standard engagement-bait influencers declare the dawn of the sovereign teenage day-trader. The media thought that was the story. It was not. The real flex wasn't the macro strategy or the directional bets on currency pairs. It was the setup behind it: a lightweight proxy array routing through residential IPs to dodge exchange rate-limiting, paired with a custom parsing engine that instantly translates raw order-book imbalances into executed micro-hedges. The kid wasn't trading; he bypassed the entire institutional pipeline of risk management, brokerage compliance, and analyst overhead with a single configuration file. The entire operation runs on a continuous loop of multi-agent orchestration. A master instance drafts the execution logic, a secondary validation agent checks the code against real-time oracle feeds, and a fleet of worker APIs executes up to 3,210 trades a night. Total infrastructure cost: roughly $45 in API tokens and a cheap server instance. It extracts a 78% win rate out of systemic market inefficiencies, operating with a structural margin that legacy trading desks weighed down by salaries and compliance boards cannot compete with.

0xstack (@eth0xzar) reportedDON'T BUILD A COMPANY. BUILD SOMETHING PEOPLE CAN PAY FOR THIS WEEK. This girl started in February. A few months later, her product had already processed over $6,000 in payments. Just a cheat Claude project she decided to turn into a real product. Here's the process: > Build something useful for yourself. > Tell Claude to push it to GitHub. > Connect Supabase so multiple users can use it. > Deploy it with Vercel. > Connect Stripe. Now people can actually pay you. You don't need a revolutionary idea. You need: > GitHub > Supabase > Vercel > Stripe > guide from Anthropic And a problem worth solving. This article will help you build it 👇

Gjermund Garaba (@GjermundGaraba) reported@RhysSullivan I’ve deployed it locally and hooked up a bunch of stuff. Are GitHub issues the preferred feedback channel or do you have a better way?

Trace Cohen (@Trace_Cohen) reportedShipping fast means stuff breaks silently - broken share images, dead links, leaking {{template}} vars, stale content. You find out when someone shares a broken link, not from a test. So I built a 3-part "site health" system that catches it first. The auditor (~200 lines of stdlib Python) fetches my sitemap and, for every page, checks: og:image actually resolves to a real image (entity-decode the URL first — & bit me), <title> exists and isn't a ${template} leak, no {{merge_tags}} or tracking cruft in the visible text, page returns 200 (catches dead routes in the sitemap), and warns on thin content. Outputs a JSON report, exits non-zero on any FAIL. The dashboard — a noindexed /health page that reads that JSON and renders a green/amber/red status, KPIs (audited / clean / warnings / failures), a per-section rollup, and the exact issue on each URL. One glance = "is everything green?" The loop — a GitHub Action runs the auditor 2×/day + on-demand, commits the fresh report (so the dashboard stays live), and fails the run on any FAIL → I get emailed. Find → fix → re-run → confirm green. It even taught me to whitelist false positives ({{firstName}} is legit on a cold-email page). Want your own? Paste this into Claude Code / Cursor — it learns your site first, then builds it for you: Build a site-health system tailored to MY site. Don't assume my structure — learn it first, then fill in the specifics yourself. PHASE 0 — LEARN MY SITE (before writing code): detect my framework/host/layout; find my sitemap; sample ~20-30 live pages across the sections you discover from my URL structure; figure out how my pages set <title>/og:image/meta (static?dynamic OG route? CMS?); identify where my content comes from (hand-written, generated, imported/scraped) — that's where cruft hides. Do a FIRST diagnostic pass and SHOW me what's actually broken vs intentional (broken OG images, dead sitemap routes, leaking {{vars}}/${template}, tracking params, thin pages). Ask me to confirm which "issues" are expected so we whitelist them. PHASE 1 — BUILD IT, customized to what you found: 1) scripts/site-audit.py (stdlib only) — hardcode MY real sitemap URL, MY section names (full-audit the important ones, sample the rest), and MY intentional-pattern whitelist from Phase 0. Check each page for the failure modes you actually observed (OG image resolves to a real image, entity-decode first; title present, no template leak; no leaking merge tags/ad params in visible text; HTTP 200; thin-content warn). Thread-pooled, retry transient errors once, --json report, exit 1 on FAIL. 2) a noindex /health dashboard reading that JSON (status banner, KPIs, per-section rollup, issue list) — match my design system. 3) CI (GitHub Action) — run 2x/day + on-demand, commit the fresh report so the dashboard stays live, fail the run on any FAIL. Then run it once and walk me through the first real report. Build the thing that watches the things.

Blum (@Blum_OG) reportedAndrej Karpathy on MCP: "it's a protocol of speaking directly to agents as this new consumer and manipulator of digital information." that is the cleanest way to think about MCP your coding agent is becoming a second worker inside the product it needs the same context you use: repo, docs, browser, database, errors, designs, tickets, payments if you keep pasting those things into chat by hand you are doing integration work manually the best MCP stack for vibe coding: 1. Context7 give the agent current docs this saves you from stale Next.js patterns, old Supabase calls, wrong Stripe webhook shapes, and Vercel config from 2 versions ago 2. GitHub MCP give it the repo, issues, PRs, branches, workflow runs, and review context half of real work lives outside the file you currently have open 3. Playwright MCP give it a browser the agent should click the thing it built, fill the form, check the mobile view, and catch the button that compiles but does nothing 4. Firecrawl MCP give it clean web research use this before building around a third-party API, writing a comparison page, reading changelogs, or checking pricing claims 5. Supabase or Neon MCP give it the database context that matches your stack start read-only. add writes only when you trust the permissions 6. Sentry MCP give it production evidence real stack traces beat "it crashes sometimes" every single time 7. Figma MCP give it design context when the interface matters spacing, layout, copy, components, and screen structure should come from the file, not from a screenshot and hope 8. Linear MCP give it the task queue bugs, feature work, release notes, follow-ups, and PR links belong somewhere more durable than yesterday's chat 9. Stripe MCP give it official payment context checkout, subscriptions, webhooks, billing, and test mode deserve docs close by and human review close behind 10. Filesystem, ***, Memory, Sequential Thinking give it the base layer files, diffs, history, decisions, and longer plans make the agent act like it is working inside a real project recommended install order: 1. Context7, GitHub, Playwright 2. Supabase or Neon, Sentry, Firecrawl 3. Figma, Linear, Stripe when the product needs them 4. Filesystem, ***, Memory, Sequential Thinking as the base

Shubham Sharma | AI & Tech (@editxshub) reportedPaying $19/month for GitHub Copilot? Cascade is free. What you actually get: → Inline completions — not stripped down → Autonomous debugging → Real-time assistance → Command execution Other free alternatives most devs have never tried: → Cline — autonomous VS Code agent (open source) → Aider — terminal-first, built for *** workflows → Continue — local LLMs, data stays on your machine 12 months ago: Copilot was the only serious option. Today: 4 real free alternatives. Most teams paying for Copilot haven't tested any of these. 30 minutes could change a year of costs. Which one are you testing?

Leonard Rodman (@RodmanAi) reportedOne developer got tired of his laptop sounding like a jet engine. So he rebuilt desktop apps. Slack: 524 MB → 8 MB Discord: 265 MB → 9 MB ChatGPT: 260 MB → 9 MB Why? Because most "desktop apps" are just websites packaged with an entire copy of Chrome. In 2022, Chinese developer tw93 built Pake in Rust to fix it. Today: • 50,000+ GitHub stars • MIT open source • Native apps under 10 MB • One command turns any website into a desktop app He didn't raise money. He didn't start a company. He just deleted hundreds of megabytes of bloat with code. That's what shipping looks like.

Dmytro Virych (@dmytrovirych) reportedI’ve been shipping code for 10+ years and imposter syndrome still won’t leave me alone. You’d think it chills out with time. Nah. It just levels up. Early days it whispers “you’re not ready yet.” A decade in it hits harder: “bro you’ve been faking it this whole time, they’re about to catch on.” Mobile apps, web stuff, janky systems with too many moving parts, solo products I actually shipped… none of it matters when the voice kicks in. Thinking about speaking at a conference? Lol who do you think you are, those are the real pros. Want to drop an opinion in a thread? Better stay quiet before someone realizes you don’t actually know ****. Here’s the thing I’ve learned: the voice isn’t tracking your real skill. It’s just screaming about the fake gap between what you know and what you think everyone else knows. That second number is 100% made up. Your messy behind-the-scenes vs their perfect highlight reel. All those “professionals” I’m scared of? Half of them are up at 2am staring at a random GitHub issue, quietly praying someone else already solved this exact bug. It never fully disappears. You just get better at shipping anyway while it’s still yapping. If you’ve got way more years than your confidence shows, reply with the number. Curious how many of us are still out here waiting to get “found out.” 🚀

Bipin Paul (@iAmBipinPaul) reported@davidfowl @_Evan_Boyle Yes, the only problem is that the GitHub Copilot subscription is too expensive.

Krish Subramanian (@krishnan) reportedSoftware engineers got automated first. Not because the work was hard. Because it was easy to grade. Everyone blames the missing union. Coders never organized; doctors, lawyers, and electricians did. That is half the story, and the wrong half. Two things get mashed together here: how easy a job is to automate, and who sets the terms when it happens. Take the first. Code is text. The training data sat on GitHub, free. And code grades itself. A compiler and a test suite tell a model in seconds if it was right. That feedback loop is rocket fuel for machine learning, and almost no other job has one. A nurse does not come with a test suite. The result shows. On SWE-bench Verified, a set of real GitHub issues, top agents went from about 20 percent in August 2024 to near 90 percent by early 2026. Human developers score around 67 to 70 percent. The machines have passed us. And the people who built these systems aimed at their own jobs first. The damage is not a prediction. Stanford's payroll data shows employment for developers aged 22 to 25 down nearly 20 percent from its 2022 peak. Now the comfortable read: seniors are fine. Workers over 30 are holding steady. For now, AI writes the code and seniors supply the judgment. "For now" is carrying that whole sentence. Seniors feel safe because the tools write code but cannot yet own messy, ambiguous, system-level problems. That is a line moving up, not a wall. Every benchmark shows models climbing toward harder, multi-file work. Senior judgment is the next rung, not a different ladder. Kill the bottom rung and you kill the pipeline that makes seniors at all. So, the union question, framed properly. A union could not have stopped this. A picket line does not repeal a capability. What it changes is the terms. In 2023 the Writers Guild cut the first real AI deal in any industry. They did not ban the tech. They won this: a studio cannot force you to use AI, AI output cannot take your credit or pay, and the company must give notice first. Engineers won none of that. So the capability landed on the employer's schedule. No warning. No floor. No severance. No seat. Exposure and protection are different levers. Most of us have neither. The juniors already know this. The seniors are next.
