    Might be sick as hell but not gonna stop me from submitting a fix to a GitHub repo cuz the mere fact the issue exists is inhibiting my recovery.

  • vintagechips 電脳伝説 (@vintagechips) reported

    @FremenHlide You're right. My mistake Now, I can't sign in to github, so I'll update and reply 15 hours after. Sorry to keep you waiting

  • TangentTen tangent (@TangentTen) reported

    also not good that all the revoke approval sites are down/intermittent rn most people don't even know what npm is, let alone be able to build source from github

  • BullTrades69 BullTrades69 (@BullTrades69) reported

    @AIlMyThoughts @APompliano @nunchuk_io Shut down how exactly? Such stupid statements show a complete lack of knowledge to how any of this technology even works. Even if they took the domain down, the GitHub would still remains.

  • vadimkantorov Vadim Kantorov (@vadimkantorov) reported

    @yaroslavvb (c) has still some head space, c.f. that github issue on DataParallel depreciation... One UX area may be implementing helper collectives (with less overhead) for evaluation routines. These end up reimplemented in every project using bare PyTorch…

  • IMore73 Ingo Mohr (@IMore73) reported

    Dear @AskAtlassian , I'm trying to create a Github branch from a Jira-Cloud issue. But w/ your Jira-Github integration I cannot find a link (as for Bitbucket). The branch link only appears after I created the branch on Github. How can I make that "Create Branch" link appear?

  • pinskia Andrew Thomas Pinski (any pronouns) (@pinskia) reported

    @duk_37 @Cor3ntin Love to understand the barrier to entry issue. github has same amount of barrier to entry really. Just moved the support to an outside source rather than internally. I think it is time to force everyone to have a meta account instead. (/s)

  • StephanyaCodes StephanyaCodes (@StephanyaCodes) reported

    I’m trying to get push to GitHub enabled in VSCode and I’ve been getting errors for HOURS. I have no clue how to fix this and I just want to take a nap now. #webdeveloper #webdevelopment #100devs

  • joaojesus81 joaojesus81.dev (@joaojesus81) reported

    Day 19/20 #100DaysOfCode. Had to debug an error that would flag up on GitHub actions, quite frustrating @ first but very satisfying when fixed. So learned that in all middleware in node/express, you need to make sure to return after writing the headers, otherwise you get an error

  • vorahsa Jaakko Kangasharju (@vorahsa) reported

    Tfw you subscribed to a github issue that was blocking your work months ago, it finally got fixed but you don’t even remember what it was about because your workaround is working just fine to get around it

  • jplomas JP Lomas (@jplomas) reported

    For the nerds: Vue.js frontend continuously deployed to Netlify's cloud from GitHub, question of the day from an express API running on Heroku's cloud which in turn pulls it from a SQLlite file of questions. Let me know issues and 🐛

  • KyleBenzle Kyle Benzle (@KyleBenzle) reported

    @Station21m @L0laL33tz The problem in 2017 was a central group of believers who liked and used and understood Bitcoin going up against corporate and government interests who ended up hijacking the Bitcoin core GitHub and the network itself through lies and intimidation. This is nothing like that.

  • chipzoller Chip Zoller (@chipzoller) reported

    I'm getting a (creative) 500 error page on @github when accessing a repo of mine (a fork) and a *** push failure "fatal: did not receive expected object". Shift + refreshing sporadically returns the site but pushes still fail. @githubstatus reports good. Anyone else seeing this?

  • erfanilyas Erfan Ilyas (@erfanilyas) reported

    @soderlind @Azure @github Since every web app is on a separate instance. You will face wp cron issue running multiple times. I once fixed this issue using bash script and WP CLI.

  • shipman jon shipman (@shipman) reported

    @Shruti_Narwani I had someone at work complain about me making open source commits and issues on github. I'm pretty sure it's against the license to keep bug fixes to yourself (unsure, but sounded right)

  • kaijuTheSnack Functor Punk (@kaijuTheSnack) reported

    My favorite Docker feature is that every time something is broken. The GitHub issue I find for it was ignored for like 3 years and then closed by their bot with no resolution or even response.

  • _justanotherdot Ryan James Spencer (@_justanotherdot) reported

    am i the only one having a really buggy experience with both desktop and mobile versions of github's diff view? laggy, can't navigate with arrow keys up and down.

  • arxanas Waleed Khan (@arxanas) reported

    @t3dotgg Rebase *should* preserve history and *** fails to do so, but that's a different issue. (***-branchless preserves local rebase history, but unfortunately it's difficult to propagate this history to hosted platforms like GitHub.)

  • Yeloe yeloe (@Yeloe) reported

    @yuko_webdev Also, I had never used Twitch either, or GitHub, Glitch or any of those platforms. Coming into tech, you have to get comfortable with being uncomfortable using platforms that you may not be used to or have ever used before.

  • KyleBenzle Kyle Benzle (@KyleBenzle) reported

    @OutsideTheSyst2 @L0laL33tz It's too late. Corporate interests long ago hijacked the Bitcoin Core GitHub repo and ever since pressured useful idiots (Peter Todd) to twist the project into a broken version of itself. Only Bitcoin Cash still works as Bitcoin, and Bitcoin Core is a Ponzi scheme for idiots.

  • The_McJones Tim Moth McJones (@The_McJones) reported

    @genehack @aallan @github I’ve run into repos like that, where a bot auto close issues

  • glyph glyph (@glyph) reported

    @cfbolz @willmcgugan The big problem is that somebody needs to go spend 3 years building this, another 3 getting popular, then get acquired or cloned out of existing so that we can all use it on GitHub without thinking about it :-)

  • _daemons _daemons (@_daemons) reported

    @KnightNZ There was a recently fixed bug for the QR code generator. Try re-running the "install things" menu item for it to get the latest version, then re-running the tool. If it still doesn't work, please post an issue on GitHub.

  • jodydonetti Jody Donetti (@jodydonetti) reported

    Is @github down just for me?

  • duk_37 duk (@duk_37) reported

    @pinskia @Cor3ntin It's the same problem with GitHub PRs vs. Phabricator - the barrier to entry gets annoying and arc is rather clunky.

  • biertester Lucas  (@biertester) reported

    @kcFive12 @hampoon @Eccentech Personnaly i needed to crack it bcs I wanted the professional edition but my computer comes with the home one… with just one script from github: fully activated with professional key without a problem

  • kourge Wil Lee 🏳️‍🌈 李科潤 (@kourge) reported

    @keithkurson @cakesandcourage i *hope* the answers are in the github issues

  • ThisIsTYX Tan (weareblahs) (@ThisIsTYX) reported

    the review section of an app has now become the "issues" section in github

  • heitor_lessa Heitor Lessa 🏖 (@heitor_lessa) reported

    @simonw @TkTech @willmcgugan Exactly my problem, so much that I added an extra 300-400ms because GitHub Actions would give false positives every other week

  • copelandrjoshua Joshua Copeland (@copelandrjoshua) reported

    My webpage is making progress on my live server, but it doesn’t reflect on my GitHub/link
