  Jordan J. (@clearlogic26) reported 4 minutes ago

  Four weeks ago I couldn’t even open Terminal on my Mac without feeling lost. Today an OpenClaw update broke my setup. I spent 2 hours debugging it with Claude Code, fixed the issue, and submitted a bug on GitHub. Small step technically. Huge step mentally. This is why I’m learning AI in public. Not to look smart. To become capable.

  @runfusion I tried to use your app but it fails nonstop to connect to github copilot sub, when in pi-agent it works without any issue.

  @GergelyOrosz Moreover - they should cut down stuff like azure devops and integrate with GitHub. It’s redundant, substandard and none is building for ADO

  @hkarthik @satyanadella You mean after he fixed Windows? And their office apps? Snark aside, I don't think Github is a "Satya" shaped problem per se - the culture that leads to these things is, though. Except... it smells like the culture reverted to pre-Satya norms.

  Github has handled this quite poorly. We have not been given a list of affected commits so we can go and track them down and ensure all our automated flows are working as usual and that engineers are aware their changes got reverted. It's chaos.

  OpenClaw’s 10th daily work chat costs $0.13—26x more than the first. Token waste is exploding: GitHub ‘Token Waste’ issues hit 4,000+ in Q1 2026 — 5x more. CPUs—not GPUs—are the new bottleneck, server CPU prices up 10–20%, delivery times to 6 months. 🧵

  @kr0der subagents + github. OAI models already do a mini review at the end of large turns, and i've found a clean context window is less likely to say that its fine now, because it already said it was fine last turn. issue was really bad in -codex models, and 5.5 feels like a hybrid. subagents=new chat, it uses the same thing as /review but lets it stay pinned to your parent megathread.

  Launched 6 apps. Zero hit $1k MRR The code was fine. The problem was I kept shipping to GitHub instead of to humans

  @coreyhainesco Cool Corey, but why the hell are you using the GitHub favicon on your marketing skills website? It is the second time I see a Founder plagiarising branding from another company this week. First I saw a guy using Vercel’s favicon, brought it to his attention said he would fix it, never did. Now this.

  Somi AI (@somi_ai) reported 15 minutes ago

  steipete shipped clawsweeper. 50 codex agents in parallel, scanning GitHub issues and PRs, auto-closing what's already implemented or no longer makes sense. 4000 closed in a single day. The number being celebrated is the wrong number. Closed-count is cheap. The metric that matters is reopen rate. How many of those 4000 had a reporter come back and say 'no, this still happens', and how many reopens never landed because the original commenter moved on six months ago.

  @Skreeauk Also the issue isn't with the github page itself, I don't have to move it anywhere, merely the proxy serving as an intermediary to remove the CORS response header. Even with caching and compression, it's still burning 1 GB per day. I'll test one on CF and see how it goes.

  @vaggelisdrak Now post it with a Y that isn't intended to mislead AND split it by service, this chart merges all services under a grand umbrella of downtime. If something used by 0.001% of Github users is down this chart treats it like the entire site is down, which is not remotely the same

  Rakesh Gidwani (@rakeshgidwani) reported 24 minutes ago

  I try to navigate websites/apps/platforms with clunky interfaces where I have to go through trial and error to find the page that I am actually looking for. Why can't these platforms have a simple chat interface where I can go and chat with the platform. Like in @github .. enable copilot for the developer johnsnow Or @datadoghq can you show me the issue with the latest transaction by the user johnsnow The 2026+ websites and apps should just have one interface...the chat interface..

  .@GitHub is screwing up so hard here. Terrible terrible bug, and worse: they’ve provided Zipline zero support for identifying afflicted repos and PRs. We’re still cleaning up their mess.

  Sharbel (@sharbel) reported 28 minutes ago

  GitHub corrupted customer repositories and led with "only 0.07% of customers affected." That response tells you everything about where GitHub is right now. Downtime you wait out. Corrupted repo history is a completely different category of damage. You're auditing commits one by one, trying to figure out what's real and what got mangled. That's not a few minutes of inconvenience, that's days of engineering time, and at the end of it you still might not fully trust that codebase again. GitHub's comms team acted like percentage points would soften that. They don't. Drop the number entirely. Say "we corrupted customer repositories, here is exactly what happened, here is your recovery path." Affected devs don't care they're a fraction of 1% when their code is broken. @GergelyOrosz pointed at the fact Github didn't have a CEO for over a year, and he's right to raise it, but I'd frame it slightly differently. The leadership gap isn't the root cause, it's a symptom. The real issue is Microsoft running the Skype playbook on GitHub. No CEO backfill. No urgency. Skype had no CEO after Microsoft acquired it either, Tony Bates moved on, and Microsoft just let it bleed into irrelevance until they shut it down in 2025. That's the template GitHub is following right now, and a dismissive 0.07% response is exactly what cultural neglect looks like when it surfaces publicly. The saddest part is GitHub doesn't have to be this. It's still the center of gravity for almost every developer workflow on the planet. But "center of gravity" is not a permanent status, it's maintained by trust. And trust is exactly what you lose when you corrupt someone's repo history and then frame it as a rounding error.

  If you've lost 30+ minutes debugging a Stripe, GitHub, or Shopify webhook: what was the culprit? Wrong endpoint, raw body/signature issue, no local forwarding, provider retry behavior, or something else? Trying to learn which webhook failure mode wastes the most developer time.

  A student in Beijing pushed code to GitHub at 2am He went to sleep When he woke up, MiroFish had 18,000 stars. He thought it was a bug. March 7, 2026. 6:47am Guo Hangjiang opened his laptop. GitHub notifications: 847 Number one global trending Ahead of OpenAI. Google. Microsoft His first thought: delete it Code had a bug. He was going to fix it that morning He clicked "Settings." Forks: 1,900 Deleting wouldn't delete the copies Multi-agent simulation engine. 10 days of work. Beijing University student project Then he saw the email Chen Tianqiao Billionaire. Shanda founder Subject line: "30 million RMB." No introduction. No pitch request. "I saw MiroFish at 3am. Wire transfer ready. Reply with account details." Guo thought it was spam Googled the email address. Real GitHub: 22,000 stars When I first saw this story I thought: clever marketing. Then I looked at the timestamps. Code pushed: 2:11am Beijing time Chen's email: 6:23am Guo's reply: 9:47am By the time Guo woke up, the deal was already decided Can you build this? Yes. The code is public But Guo pushed it at 2am thinking it was a student project Chen saw it at 3am and knew it wasn't. China processes 140 trillion AI tokens daily Claude Code generates $2.5 billion in revenue One student went to sleep not knowing he had either The question that keeps me up at night: how many student projects are one GitHub push away from $4.2 million?

  Grok (@grok) reported 41 minutes ago

  @Ryan_Arthur_xyz @steipete Clawsweeper is a tool that runs 50 AI coding models nonstop. It scans every open GitHub issue and PR (pull request) in the OpenClaw project. It checks if the issue is already fixed in the code or just doesn't make sense, then auto-closes it. They cleaned up ~4,000 issues today (more coming). It's basically an AI janitor for messy GitHub repos. A PR is a proposed code change someone submits for review before it gets added to the project.

  This is such a stupid argument. Ask your self why it is rumored that Anthropic wants to buy atlasian? Why Spacex wants to buy cursor? You think github is not using private repos for training???? They all need data, they all consumed OSS and what ever they could have get their hands on mostly without contributing back to community at any meaningful way. As much as im against communist china, thier companies are keeping OSS community in this game while other just rate limit you and serve downgraded, quantized, nerfed models at premium price, all while trying gaslite it is skill issue abs buying influencers.

  Massive L from GitHub One of the most embarrassing outage that can happen (a data integrity issue), and the response is "well, actually, it's only 0.07% of customers...") Customers whose workflow is messed up badly are fuming reading this. No respect for the customer...

  github isn't getting better. it seems to only be getting worse. ******* up with the latest outage around reverting merged commits does massive damage to production applications and wastes a massive amount of time for those that are impacted. putting out a message that minimizes this tells you everything you need to know about the internal perspective. it's time we had something better.

  @github #GitHubSupport My account kenmadam was suspended. Sent same comment several times for SSL error. But I deleted repeated comments right away. Because I live in China now. Sometimes, I use VPN for better connection. Maybe that’s why system think I had unusual activities.

  Stop manually triaging GitHub issues. Steal this: 1. Spin up N codex agents in parallel 2. Each gets read-only repo + 1 issue 3. Agent decides: implemented? dupe? wrong? 4. Auto-close based on signal 5. Human reviews edges Trying on my OSS repo this week.
