  $NVM is quietly becoming essential developer infrastructure with 94K+ GitHub stars and 10K+ forks. It solves a fundamental problem by allowing developers to install and switch between multiple Node.js versions seamlessly, while .nvmrc files let projects specify the exact runtime they require. With Node.js powering a massive portion of modern web infrastructure NVM sits directly inside the developer workflow making its adoption and longevity particularly bullish. YOU ARE EARLY ANON.

  Great that there is already an RCA shared. From what I see, the root cause was a bad behavior in retries in Copilot after a VS Code update and it snowballed from there, right? Curious question: why the plans do not include a reduction of the blast radius so that Copilot messing up with traffic doesn’t bring all of GitHub down?

  "GitHub should be more reliable, this is unacceptable". I say as I have an agent swarm polling for new issues and programmatically opening slop PRs.

  @NewAgeRetroNerd That's an interesting case, there is nothing illegal about ai code generation, there is nothing wrong with it. So what are Github going to do about it, they can't refuse people 'because they use AI Agents'. That's the interesting part in terms of 'game theory', how are Github going to handle this ? They need something like KYC or a business identification, and otherwise only registration with a legal identified account. Otherwise the bots will take down Github, this will only get worse.

  Genuinely thought I'd broken something yesterday. Pushed three times, got three different results, went digging through my own config. It was just a routine GitHub outage.

  Wheelder is stopping the use of code repository platforms like GitHub and switching to more reliable methods of code storage and deployment because they discovered that GitHub primarily serves as that bridge for AI interference and security risks, as well as cost issues.

  @excid3 @github Actions have been a mess for too long. They need to fix them, starting by efficiency. My understanding is that there are a lot of useless code on their end that are penalizing developers and teams.

  i mean github certainly has had problems even before vibecoding but a lot of other services have been having tons of issues lately. my google home was down for a few hours, one would expect more from this technology as how it is being marketed

  @jeal0uspengu1n @mehulmpt makes sense, but still i don't think it's gonna be super easy as people are just used to github, the issue is the downtime not the product itself, and considering that if it does resolves soon there is no point in going anywhere for anyone.

  First GitHub goes down. Then claude decides to join the party. At this point, I’m starting to think the universe is testing whether we actually know how to code without AI. 💀 #Claudedown #AI

  github: free user: sends enough random ai generated code to cover the entire state of texas if printed on paper github: "sorry boss we cant handle gigatons of hyperslop" crashes user: "god github is horrible, terrible in fact" based on a true story.

  So this was in my actual head, **** happens: and was a lesson in switching to coffee/tea from the energy drinks. Operation: went well; sorry for the delay, getting the lab back and running has been interesting: still it’s fun to be learning and getting back to work(have been reading allot the last few months just not writing). Yes iOS bugs and maybe exploits are coming but gotta recover from this and other health issues. Obviously with things being what they are I’m feeling about as useful as a chocolate tea pot but luckily the infection as a result of this bad boy has not spread(as far as we can tell at the moment) to my organs. So building a suitable working environment is paramount as I looked at my lack of GitHub commits and was shocked at how poor my performance has been. as usual I do not care for sympathy: just wanted to shed a little light on the subject. Lesson: health is wealth! xoxox
