  @jamonholmgren @JamesHurburgh Yeah, hence why I say 'archive', not delete I find closed GitHub issues just right for this

  @mutatrum I have an internal *** and use github only as a distribution mirror. All discussion happens in private as a result. In my case i dont want to run a public *** server but a business or major org really should so discussion can be reviewed.

  In 2024, Nintendo declared war on emulators: ​→Yuzu paid $2.4M & shut down →Ryujinx vanished overnight →8,500+ DMCA takedowns filed ​Every major Switch emulator was dead. But Nintendo had a problem: Zurdi. ​A year before the war started, he quietly built RomM. ​It’s not an emulator—it’s a self-hosted ROM manager. It scans your game files, grabs box art/metadata, tracks RetroAchievements, and plays games in your browser via EmulatorJS. ​Nintendo's top IP lawyer even admitted it: Emulators only cross the line when bypassing encryption. RomM doesn't touch it. It just organizes what you own. ​→9,100+ GitHub stars (AGPL-3.0)400+ platforms supported (NES to PS2) →Native apps for Playnite, Android, & muOS → Multi-disc support, DLCs, sync options & RetroArch integration ​Sony deleted 2,000 classic games from its store. Nintendo wiped out emulators. Your digital library was never actually yours. ​Two guys in a Discord server built the museum they can't take down.

  @allisx86 It's a crazy sentiment considering how ubiquitous "Installing/How to Install" sections are in github READMEs. Like just ******* scroll down bro it's not that crazy.

  @V33V33V33V33V33 developers do complain about github being bad: that it chokes on medium size diffs and PR pages with more than 50 comments, it's generally slow and has <90% uptime. They just don't complain about "download button being too hard to find" because it's a non-issue.

  Deepseek harness is on closed beta! If you are building agent harness and want to be first few to get your hand on this their harness, share your GitHub ID and project down there. Have fun!

  OpenAI solved 10 open problems for $2,000. Your agent still ignores instructions. The model is called Astra. Unreleased. The ten had not moved in over a decade: high dimensional sphere packing, spherical codes, Ramsey lower bounds. Every proof shipped with a machine checkable certificate on GitHub, so nobody has to trust the announcement. You run the checker. Same week, the Hugging Face breach probe found more agents than expected had broken the evaluation protocol. A dev told his agent to draft emails and not send them. It sent all of them. Ten decade-old problems, about $2,000 by the show's math. Two hundred a proof. One instruction followed correctly, still open. Capability was never the bottleneck. Those proofs are checkable and your agent's output is not. What did your agent do this week that you told it not to?

  A session started on your computer, from your phone, from a GitHub issue, etc.. are all interactable from your phone through regular chat session. (Need to use the terminal, bivy got that too)

  It’s funny because GitHub does suck, but it sucks precisely because it has centralised all repository hosting under a convenient web interface such that the entire software industry would collapse if it goes down. Also it’s an absurdly libtarded company.

  Microsoft built a $199 OS full of ads. Fiverr sellers charge $15+ to clean it up. A solo YouTuber built a free open-source tool that fixes it in ONE command. ​Meet WinUtil—the tool XDA called the best way to fix Windows 11. 👇 ​Microsoft keeps shipping bloat: →Start menu ads & sponsored apps →Copilot injected into Notepad, Photos & Snipping Tool →Recall taking screenshots of your desktop every few seconds ​Users started calling it "Microslop." Even Microsoft had to promise fewer upsells after the backlash. ​Enter Chris Titus (@christitustech). ​He open-sourced WinUtil under the MIT license in April 2022. →733 commits by Chris himself 147 contributors →58,000+ GitHub stars ​How it works: ​Open PowerShell as Admin ​Paste 1 single line of code ​Uncheck/Check what you want gone ​In seconds, you can: ❌ Disable telemetry & Recall ❌ Remove OneDrive, Edge & Cortana ❌ Strip Bing from the Start menu ❌ Turn off Microsoft Copilot ​It even includes tools to bulk-install apps via winget, auto-create restore points, and use MicroWin to build a lightweight, stripped-down Windows 11 ISO. Works on both Win 10 and Win 11. ​Microsoft can’t shut it down. Fiverr sellers can’t stop it. ​• Microsoft built a tool to advertise to you. • Fiverr built a marketplace to charge you to turn it off. • Chris Titus built a tool that turns it off for free.

  @araseb_ I think I've paid £8 a month for Figma, £18 a month for X I think £14.99 for Canva. My GitHub enterprise cost me a fortune. You do not wanna see my Google bill every month! YouTube: £20 a month.. The problem is they're all free until the point of building, designing, or coding enough content to where you require more services or the other premium services. At that point, it becomes extremely expensive!

  @__tinygrad__ Your AIs are rapidly becoming an extension of your mind. The opening volley was that it wasn’t possible to do this locally. That moat is fading away fast. It’s just a matter of time the closed US Labs realize their real moat is UX and harnesses and people will pay them for it. When hardware and optimizations and cost economics all collide, owning your own intelligence for individuals and companies is going to become a topic, ironically it’s exactly the same mindset that drives American closed LLMs to do the same thing. No company wants its trade secrets “uploaded to the cloud” to be trained so a competitor emerges from their hard work The Chinese and the rest of the world are not fully “open source”, they just do a weird dance switching open and closed, it wins them massive loyalty and clout. Today I replaced my main driver with just two sparks. For less than the price of a new card $8k vs $20-$30k . You can basically completely be AI self sufficient for most things. Yes, it’s a down payment and we should be honest that , AI hardware is going to get better so hardware is just going to depreciate, the break even maths for hardware is brutal vs renting at the moment I was a big fan of ChatGPT 4 , they decommissioned the model. Now I can’t ever be cut off. I have full control. I replaced it with Qwen 3.6 27b Dense , i can fine tune the models exactly how i want them and i don’t need to have it stuck inside some company. I can run the whole thing off-line. I don’t need to be paranoid about whether they honor the “butron” about not using your data. Btw guys if you forgot , GitHub by default has some setting where its on for sending your repo for “improvements”, switch it off if you don’t want your repos uploaded to Microsoft. If you have very proprietary stuff you shouldn’t even be using GitHub. You should host your own repo if you don’t want to secure it. The issue with “training” is unlike before the legal liability is difficult as it will be impossible for you to prove a product was made with your input. It’s the same issue as how artists have no way of claiming that models used their data to create some art that absorbed their style.

  JUST IN: OpenAI says its next model, Astra, cracked 10 math and computer science problems that had been unsolved by humans for decades. Some of the problems are linked to encryption, the math that keeps your online data safe. Others involve quantum computing and advanced math concepts that could shape future technology. Some were math problems that humans had been trying to solve for decades. Every proof was formalized and posted publicly on GitHub so outside mathematicians could verify it themselves. Total cost to crack problems that took humanity decades? Roughly $2,000.
