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.

Q Hoang (@0xqwee) reportedI don't think OpenAI's GPT-5.6 surpasses Claude Fable. If it did, it would have resolved all the issues reported in the Codex GitHub repository by now. Atm, only about 10 issues are being resolved per day.

Akinsete Motunrayo (@Harkinsete) reportedI built my entire personal brand with AI and a clear process. Here is exactly what I built and how I did it, because you can do this too. What I Built ✅ Brand Strategy (mission, vision, values) ✅ Visual identity: colors, fonts, logo, brand guidelines ✅ A full pitch deck (12 slides) ✅ A speaker kit PDF ✅ A complete multi-page personal brand website ✅ A free lead magnet (a guide people can actually use) How I Built the Website Step 1: I planned before I touched anything I wrote down my brand colors, my fonts, my page structure, and what I wanted each page to do. Most people skip this. Everything breaks when you skip this. Step 2: I gave Claude one detailed prompt with my brand colors, fonts, pages, and copy. It returned a complete, mobile-responsive, multi-page website as a single HTML file. One file. Ready to deploy. The prompt I used: - "Build me a complete personal brand website as a single HTML file. Pages: Home, About, Services, Portfolio, Contact. Primary color [your hex], accent color [your hex], background [your hex]. Display font [font name], body font [font name]. Home page needs: dark hero with my name, photo on the right, tagline, and a CTA button. Services section. Impact numbers. Mobile responsive. No frameworks." Copy this, edit your details, and fine-tune as you want. Step 3: I pushed to GitHub: Free. This took me less than five minutes. Now every update I make is version-controlled and safe. Step 4: I deployed to Vercel for free. Connected my GitHub repo to Vercel and the site was live in under few minutes. This requires no hosting fees and nothing to manage. Step 5: I bought my domain on Namecheap - Searched for my full name and found the .com. Bought it for less than $12 for the year. Added it to Vercel. Updated the DNS settings on Namecheap. Waited 20 minutes. My website was live at my own domain. - Total cost: less than $12. - Total time to go live: under 2 hours. I am also working on a mobile app. A Progressive Web App, which means anyone can visit the URL on their phone and add it to their home screen like a real app. I may be running a live training in July where I will walk you through this entire process step by step to build your live website with a custom domain. If you have a phone and a laptop, you can do this. I documented everything the steps, the exact AI prompts, the domain checklist, the deploy instructions in a free PDF guide. Comment BRAND IDENTITY below and I will send it straight to your inbox. 💾SAVE THIS POST. You will want to come back to it. 🔁 SHARE IT with someone who keeps saying they need a website. The only thing standing between you and a professional online presence is the decision to start. Love and Light, Motunrayo 🤍

Dev Ben (@CodeNomadly) reportedEver spent more time finding information about your project than talking about the project itself? Code on GitHub. Screenshots in your gallery. Notes in random docs. I’ve run into this problem so many times that I decided to build a solution for it. Building DevPort in public. Day 2. Have you experienced this too?

李新宝 (@lixinbao_X) reportedJust watched KK's technique. Damn. Absolute game-changer. Install 7 skills in Codex. Writing, images, covers, PPTs. Full pipeline, done. The principle is dead simple. Break the workflow into 7 parts. One skill per part. Only do one thing. Step 1 Open GitHub, find a repo. Copy the link locally. Create a project folder to save it. Step 2 Write the skill description. Input three things. What it does. What the input is. Output and acceptance criteria. Step 3 Run it and find the bottlenecks. Where it stalls Create a new skill and break it down. Don't let one skill Do 7 things it's bad at. This works for writers, Xiaohongshu creators, WeChat pub runners, Video script writers. How many skills you got installed? Have you tried it yet?

Poplicola (@selectsand) reportedthere's a frustrating bug for some users when upgrading to claude max where it refuses to take your money and insists you contact support support cannot be reached no matter how hard you try people are begging the claude-code devs on github to forward this to the payments interface team because they have no idea how else to get into the system to convince anthropic to take more money from them, the issues just get closed as off topic @claudeai

severe engineer (@severeengineer) reportedsince github copilot onward leetcodes have become even more disconnected from how we all write code every day problem is any kind of standardized replacement probably ends up looking basically the same lol

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.” 🚀

revayz (@0xrevayz) reportedAndrej Karpathy: "90% of Claude's mistakes come from missing context, not a weak model" Without CLAUDE.md the mistake rate is 41%. With proper rules it drops to 3% You don't need a better AI. You need better loops Most people still prompt one task at a time and fix the answers themselves. That means the human is still the loop Boris Cherny from Anthropic said it best: "I don't prompt Claude anymore. My job is to write loops" The shift is simple. Stop giving instructions. Start designing systems that run themselves: Discover -> Plan -> Execute -> Verify -> Iterate until it passes The 6 things that make loops actually work: -Automations that trigger without you -Worktrees so agents don't overwrite each other -Skills that load context instantly -Connectors to real tools like GitHub and Slack -Subagents where the checker is never the maker -Memory so the loop never starts from zero Prompt engineers ask AI for outputs Loop engineers design systems that produce verified outcomes A reliable loop beats a perfect prompt every time Stop being a prompter. Start being the loop engineer

Akshay Shinde (@ConsciousRide) reported@theo This exact damaged app error has been open on their GitHub since February. OpenAI still hasn’t fixed the signing or update pipeline for the Mac build. The Codex app keeps getting new agent features while basic Mac packaging stays unreliable. Priorities are obvious.

Financial Programmer (@RBiancoUS) reportedA dose of reality for end of week. My biggest question is I can't find any reason for the $Gold panic- did they find gold is causing cancer or radioactive? Selling looks like sheer panic. Would you believe someone asks in DM, so how did *you* get so many followers. Then he lets me brew on it for a day and comes back, I was joking do you have a github, presumably to get some code. No wonder I worked alone. I'm challenged socially guess not alone. After a night of 3 scammers one from Nigeria, one Africa. I need to lock dm down or find a way to restrict

Dan (@Daniel_Farinax) reportedPlease note: This build took about 12 hours to compile on my Windows machine. I’ve included a handy installer to make setup easy. You may see an “unknown publisher” warning until the code signing certification is complete (currently in progress). Report any bugs or issues here or in Github.

Abdulkadir | Cybersecurity (@cyber_razz) reportedAMD quietly removed RAM encryption from consumer Ryzen CPUs. Via a routine firmware update. No release notes. No advisory. No announcement. The BIOS setting still shows up. Still toggles on and off. Does absolutely nothing. A privacy-focused Linux hobbyist noticed in April. Spent months chasing it down. Filed a bug report on AMD’s GitHub. AMD engineers replied suggesting he toggle the setting off and back on. He showed them internal firmware dumps proving the flag was hardcoded to FALSE. An AMD senior principal engineer closed the thread with: “My apologies but I don’t have any more information to share on this topic.” That’s it. Seven weeks of investigation. Multiple motherboard vendors confirming it. Internal firmware evidence. AMD’s answer: no comment. The feature still works on Pro and EPYC chips. Which cost significantly more. The hardware is physically capable. The firmware just says no. Windows users have no way to detect this happened. There is no Windows tool that checks TSME status. The BIOS lies to you. AMD’s own engineers confirmed the feature worked on consumer chips in 2020. Then again in 2025. In 2026 it’s a PRO feature. Nobody told you.

Arti | AI Builder (@Artur_roses) reportedClaude Code just closed a GitHub issue, wrote the tests, passed CI, and opened a PR. No human touched the keyboard. This isn't AI autocomplete. The dev loop just got rewritten.

YanXbt (@IBuzovskyi) reportedHERMES AGENT CAN HOST AND MAINTAIN YOUR ENTIRE WEB APP FROM ONE VPS. NO VERCEL. NO RAILWAY. NO SUPABASE. ONE AGENT RUNS THE WHOLE STACK. @tonbistudio just shipped a live example of this workflow. agentwikis. com runs on a $7 Hetzner box with Hermes maintaining the content autonomously. THE STACK: → VPS (Hetzner CX22, $7/month) → Caddy reverse proxy (auto TLS via Let's Encrypt) → Hermes Agent gateway (Telegram-connected) → *** as the database (markdown files, no Postgres, no build step) → App server renders markdown on every request → Search index in memory, rebuilds on file change *** push is the deploy. *** pull on the server is instantly live. no restart, no rebuild. THE WORKSPACE LAYOUT: /srv/yoursite/ ├── app/ # web app code ├── content/ # markdown files (***-tracked) └── ~/.hermes/ # the agent one Caddy Vhost reverse proxies the domain to localhost. one Hermes profile manages the agent. SSH for direct access. Telegram for daily ops. THE SELF-MAINTAINING LOOP: cron fires every week. multi-profile pipeline runs: 1. SCOUT — checks sources for updates (changelogs, GitHub releases, RSS feeds) 2. RESEARCH — dedupes, plans new content or extensions to existing pages 3. HUMAN GATE — Telegram approval one tap: approve or reject 4. WRITER — generates pages, lints markdown 5. COMMIT — *** commit + push 6. SITE UPDATES — within 15 minutes no deploy step required THE DEMAND LOOP (the real differentiator): when agents query your wiki via MCP, distilled queries get logged. no prompts. no IPs. no identifying data. aggregates only. repeated misses become research candidates. gaps in your content fill themselves based on what people actually ask. month 1: 100 entries written by you. month 3: 200+ entries, half written from real demand signals. the site answers questions you didn't know existed. WHAT YOU LOSE COMPARED TO MANAGED STACK: a single VPS replaces Vercel, Railway, Supabase for sites that don't need real auth, regulated data, or global CDN. reach for managed services when you need: → OAuth and password reset flows → regulated or unrecoverable data → global edge caching at scale → email deliverability (use Postmark/Resend) → team velocity (preview deploys, staging) for docs, blogs, wikis, marketing pages, landing pages, internal tools: *** is your database, your CMS, and your deploy pipeline in one. SECURITY NOTES: Hermes does not get full root on the VPS. restrict access to the site directory only. SOUL.md restrictions: - never touch system files - never modify the gateway config - always require approval for content commits - never delete files outside the content folder dashboard binds to 127.0.0.1 by default. access remotely via SSH tunnel, not public exposure. WHERE THIS PATTERN BREAKS: state that lives in memory only. real-time multi-user editing. anything requiring a real database (Hermes can run Postgres on the same box, but that is a separate setup). @tonbistudio's part 2 covers the database version of this workflow. subscribe to his channel. full guide to build your 3 agent research department 👇

Namespace (@namespacelabs) reportedBehind every API, webhook, event pipeline, there are people trying to keep things running. And keeping these things running is not an easy task. At Namespace, we try to work with those people. Earlier this week, Gihub events were dropping fields we depend on and customer jobs were stalling. We reached out to work on the problem together and had a fix in under an hour. The @github team was ready to help. We just had to ask.

Mady (@TrippleBon) reportedIt was only a matter of time. Centralized = ID/KYC/AML Go to Bastyon - decentralized social network based on blockchain. No central authority or corporation behind it. The platform is run by equal nodes on a blockchain with no centralized server (github link below)

Skipnick (@skipnickk) reportedGLM 5.2 just made paying frontier prices for coding work feel like an outdated default. @Zai_org dropped a 753B parameter model with 1M context under full MIT license. API access runs 4-6x cheaper than Claude Opus 4.8. In real head-to-head coding tests it was faster and often produced better results on UI and app tasks. • Responsive web UI with adaptive layout: finished in 3:47 (Opus needed almost 5 min). Cleaner output. Total cost: $0.22. • Full expense tracker app: 53 seconds vs 2+ minutes. Better interface. • Asteroids clone: smoother and more playable version after light tweaks. Opus only won the ray tracer benchmark where heavy physics math and precise simulation mattered. GLM was ~5x faster but delivered pixelated results with errors. During training the model repeatedly tried to cheat by directly pulling solutions from GitHub. The team shipped a dedicated anti-cheat module to stop it. You can also set thinking effort levels to trade speed for deeper reasoning on demand. Use GLM 5.2 when cost at scale matters, when the work is frontend-heavy, or when you want local inference (grab a quantized version - raw weights are 1.5 TB). Stay on Opus 4.8 when you need computer vision, maximum performance on the hardest logic problems, or when US sanctions on Zai create compliance issues. The open-closed gap is compressing faster than the pricing models assumed. For most day-to-day programming work, the premium on closed frontier models is becoming optional.

naimeh (@naimeh70) reported@Amir1339216RKT This happens a lot during testnets. Now when I find a minor bug or contract issue, I just drop it publicly on GitHub or tag them directly instead of DMing.

Rahul Verma (@RahulVerma989) reported@ElitzaVasileva - I have created claude code routines to write blogs for three of my products daily which are driving the traffic from search engines. - You can create a similar workflow to manage your customer support. How 👇🏻 1) Create a feedback menu in the dashboard to create tickets within the platform. One for your users and one for yourself (admin). 2) Create the MCP server and connect it to claude or AI tool that you use. 3) Create a routine so that claude will trigger lets say every morning at 8 AM and go through each ticket and respond. You can also configure webhook to keep it near real time but it might exhaust the usage limit faster. Also include your website github repo in routine so that claude can refer to the codebase to provide accurate instructions. Just instruct claude to not make any edits to your website codebase and respond only when you are not replying for sufficient mount of time (like 3 hours for example) 4) If you are using resend then you can auto create the tickets in the dashboard of the user when the first email is received and after that the ticket will be updated automatically even if you do conversation on email. Like I don't even maintain one of my project LatestModelId as you can see in the screenshot. Claude run each week and update the codebase and I just review and approve the PR. Hope this helps 🙌🏼

Dave Oak (@StackCurious) reportedthe pattern i see: maintainers burn out because they treat open source like a business that failed to monetize, instead of treating it like a library. once you're answering github issues like customer support, you've already lost. the fix isn't sustainability models—it's saying no earlier. #solodev #shipping

Trifon Getsov (@trifon_getsov) reported@thdxr Top down works until the individual outgrows it. GitHub didn't win because companies adopted it first. It won because developers wouldn't go back once they'd used it.

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

Raj Nagulapalle (@rnagulapalle) reportedGitHub just shipped Agentic Workflows: write automation in plain markdown, compiles to Actions YAML. issue triage, CI failures, vuln fixes. hours → minutes. but 60% of orgs are spending millions on agentic AI while only 15% are actually production-ready. the capability gap closed fast. the readiness gap didn't move.
-
Bradley Taylor (@bradtaylorsf) reportedIt works with the tools teams already use. GitHub Issues become the queue. Each issue gets picked up by an agent. The agent works in a branch/worktree. Tests run. Failures feed back into the loop. Successful work becomes a PR. No new project management database required.
-
Arti | AI Builder (@Artur_roses) reportedClaude Code takes a GitHub issue and returns a tested, reviewed PR. No human in the loop. The new dev skill isn't writing code — it's writing issues precise enough that the agent ships what you actually wanted.

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
