    @DavidOndrej1 Github ecosystem it too big, it’s integrated almost everywhere with github login, etc. Not anytime soon

    Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson just launched a free tool to strip invisible watermarks from Claude-generated text. Here's what you need to know. Hoskinson's tool, shared via GitHub, joins a wave of watermark removers that appeared within days of Anthropic's August 14 watermark FAQ. It follows the earlier watermarks-remover repo, which passed 11,000 stars and 1,100 forks this same week. Anthropic's watermark, live since August 2 for EU AI Act compliance, embeds a statistical pattern in Claude's word choices rather than adding visible characters. Removal tools like this one work by rewriting AI text to break that pattern, or stripping file metadata, though they can't confirm the watermark is actually gone. Reaction has split. Some users are praising anti-watermark tools as pushback against compliance overreach, while others say watermarking should help cut down on AI-generated spam content. Key numbers: - August 2, 2026: EU AI Act marking requirement took effect - August 14, 2026: Anthropic published its watermark FAQ - 11,000+ stars, 1,100+ forks: earlier watermarks-remover repo this week Hoskinson's tool is the latest entrant in a fast-growing watermark-removal ecosystem targeting Claude, Google, and OpenAI outputs.

    Lost an hour yesterday to the quietest failure I've hit yet. Set up a GitHub token for our mining agent. Fine-grained, scoped tight, security best practice. The run came back green. HTTP 200, "success," zero errors. It also returned zero results. Every query. Turns out fine-grained tokens return 200 with a populated total_count and an empty items array on code search. The API says "here's how much exists" and hands you none of it. Classic tokens return the actual data. So the agent reported a successful run that mined nothing. No error to catch, no failure to alert on. If we hadn't been comparing against a known baseline, we'd have shipped days of "research" built on an empty set. The lesson we keep re-learning: an agent saying "done" means nothing. The only thing worth trusting is a check that would have failed if it weren't true. We wrote this one down where the next agent will read it.

    @rawkode @smoon_lee It does however look to have impacted auth services which is not just about code development some services would have been based on this. Oh and GitHub Copilot would have been down causing devs not to be able to use that to do their work.

    @oorestisime @thdxr @CodeAkram When GitHub is down, blacksmith is down - they are just providing the runners, gh still orchestrates the actions

    @peer_rich Origin is the gh for agents, that's how Cursor position it but you see the problem with it? they position themselves as "GitHub" for agents

    Can’t be filled if GitHub is down 🤪

    @thdxr Im also thinking of switching cs in my case I have local runners on my Mac but if GitHub itself is down I lose anyways

    @AdamRackis Jokes aside, the fundamental problem is that GitHub is just unwilling to deal with the root cause. I would bet 95% of the **** is coming from free accounts operated by people who have never built a single thing in their lives, who are making a commit for every time they need to center a *** with another commit 30 seconds later when they change the button colour. Simple solution? Put commit rate limits on free repos so they're not hammering the servers not stop. Put a limit of max repos on free accounts. Want to be unrestricted as currently? Pay like $5 a month. Cheap enough that anyone who actually wants to build can afford, but enough of a barrier than it will cut down on 90% of useless ****.

    Making "the information manager from hell" scale is no small feat. GitHub proofs this the last few months. This is Cursor taking that problem seriously. 👇

    Congrats on the launch! Glad to see more competition in the space. Something I'm really eager to see is a good API for Origin. Also better merge queues (Graphite has this, not sure if Origin does yet?). GitHub is a platform for more than just code storage and reviews. Their GraphQL API is good, their rate-limits not so much. Even when there isn't an outage, the amount of logic to deal with intermittent errors in e.g. CI is too high.

    Maybe Microsoft is currently using Opus to fix GitHub...

    @mattpocockuk I know much should live in the github issues, but then do you simply use Agents/claud.md, context.md, change log and decisions/adr? For keeping things ordered?

    people treat github as a place to save a few dollars, but that framing completely misses the point. github is a complete, composable automation stack where every layer of a modern software business-from autonomous coding agents like openhands to self-hosted orchestration via n8n and supabase-already exists as open source. in this 17-second clip, you can see an agent pull real data into a spreadsheet, fix its own errors, and ship output with zero code from me. it is all laid out in the guide below. the article below is the deeper read.

    github had one of the worst outages ever, out of commission for literal hours. but surprisingly gitlab stock is still down today
