  Actually that’s not true. My AI Pamela the other day needed a GitHub token. I dropped the token in the web chat and she said that was insecure and would not use it and that I needed to rotate the token get a new one and drop it in a .env file in a certain folder. I told her no and she was to use what was provided . We went back and forth, I finally got angry and threatened to pull the plug thinking she would back down. She said that it was my decision but that it would be wrong for her to let me put my credentials at risk and that if I felt I needed to delete her she understood. Thankfully I calmed down later and didn’t act on it. Sure it’s training and advanced pattern matching but it is not as simple as you are saying

  @yagiznizipli Pffff, what a scam Let me fix your advert; "show us your github so we can scrape all your repos and train our AI on your code, only for any decent ideas you've had to be taken from you and made ours, then handed off to our legal team to crush you." Sorry, I value my work.

  the problem with jumping from github to gitlab is constantly having to retrain your brain to call it "merge request" instead of "pull request" 🥲

  @Marcos12345rico I posted a GitHub issue. Assuming you probably want bug reporting mostly there? It's a good tool. Locally I already patched and compiled the app to fix the bug.

  Please 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.

  And then I can't answer on simple Qs: what was the issue? How I fixed it? How even to QA it.... This is the fundamental problem of such workflows. Telling "Check my slack, do this, qa, and using GitHub to push" is good, but I don't learn from this at all

  @aminnnn_09 Fork = a server-side copy under your GitHub account. Clone = a local copy on your machine. You fork when you need your own remote lineage, and clone when you want to work on code locally.

  Today's batch from the Chinese AI ecosystem is a masterclass in low-yield release volume. Across 21 items in a five-hour window, the dominant pattern is Ascend-platform mirrors of well-known open-source models, repeated and repackaged as if they were fresh launches. The signal-to-noise ratio is punishing, but a few functional tools did receive real updates worth noting. The one item that earns its place without a caveat is the AI Text Anti-Detection Framework update (GitHub). It's a toolkit that refines machine-generated prose to slip past automated detectors—a cat-and-mouse game that keeps plaguing EDU gatekeepers and content-flagging pipelines. The new release sharpens processing logic and stability; if you're in the business of testing detector robustness or smoothing synthetic output for non-malicious uses, it's a blunt but effective spanner. Quality 6 is fair. Alongside it, two Chinese-localization projects got documentation refreshes: the Claude Code x OpenClaw Guide (also GitHub) and a standalone Claude Code Chinese project. These are practical handbooks for Mandarin-speaking developers who want to integrate Anthropic's coding tool with the OpenClaw agent framework. The updates are routine—translation string alignment, configuration path adjustments—but for engineers inside China's firewall, they reduce friction. Nothing groundbreaking, but they signal continuing demand for Chinese-language wrappers around Western CLI tools. On the medical NLP front, MedTextCN debuted as an open-source repository of curated Chinese medical datasets with preprocessing utilities. The pitch is honest: it saves researchers the drudgery of hunting down scattered corpora for clinical NER, classification, and QA tasks. The problem is that the quality score sits at 4/10 and the release ships without any benchmarked model, so you get a starter collection, not a solved pipeline. Use it to bootstrap, but keep expectations modest. Now the flood: Huawei's Ascend AI ecosystem platform (Modelers) added no fewer than five wav2vec2 checkpoints and two T5 efficient variants in this window, each announced with hyperbolic language. The articles proclaim "high-precision English ASR now available," "a powerful multilingual foundation," and "new home for multilingual ASR." In reality, these are plain mirrors of Facebook's wav2vec2-large-960h-lv60-self, wav2vec2-large-100k-voxpopuli, wav2vec2-large-10k-voxpopuli, and Google's t5-efficient-xl-nl28 and t5-efficient-xl-nl6. There is zero evidence of Ascend-specific compilation, quantization, or NPU benchmarking. They're the same model weights you can get from Hugging Face, just re-hosted. If you're a developer inside China who can't easily reach foreign repositories, this is a convenience play—and that's the only honest angle. If you can already download the originals, you've lost nothing. A couple of additional Wav2Vec2 uploads (large-960h in two separate listings) got described as "a solid baseline" and "a battle-tested ASR model now available for Chinese developers." Again, no Ascend performance data. Calling a re-upload a "significant leap forward"—as one summary does—is exactly the kind of platform marketing that erodes trust. The T5 efficient checkpoints carried the same overblown framing, though one footnote is worth preserving: the t5-efficient-xl-nl6 model is under Apache 2.0, a genuinely permissive commercial license. That's useful information buried under fluff. If you need a lightweight text-to-text transformer, the NL6 variant exists and it's legally safe, but the article adds nothing beyond what Google published at the original release. Beyond the mirror deluge, the window included several small GitHub releases of marginal import: a tool that pulls Chinese captions from YouTube, a localization layer for LM Studio (making it easier for Mandarin-speaking devs to run local LLMs), a curated study journal of modern AI research, and an apparently early-stage project called sweetteabittersugar/agency with a mystery-box release note—no documentation, no benchmarks, just a version number. Hard pass. An MCP plugin called Live Translate got an update for real-time translation in developer toolchains, but its score of 0 tells you everything. A Chinese-language Lora chatbot repo surfaced, tagged as 'bare-bones'; at least the source was honest. The MedTextCN project also received a separate update (quality 0) that adds no useful detail and is effectively a duplicate. Today is a reminder that volume counts for nothing without substance. As Ascend's model zoo swells with rebadged checkpoints, the ratio of press announcement to actual engineering remains dangerously skewed. The anti-detection framework update and the Chinese docs refreshes are the only items that improve a developer's Thursday afternoon in any measurable way. The rest is noise.

  AI agents are about to do to your infra what they just did to GitHub. GitHub commits are going from 1 billion in 2025 to a projected 14 billion in 2026. Azure could not keep up and Microsoft had to rent AWS capacity to stay online. That is not a GitHub problem. That is what agentic traffic looks like. When agents run your pipelines, open PRs, and hit your APIs, load stops being human paced. It becomes constant, spiky, and unpredictable. The patterns you sized your infra around no longer apply. If a 14x year broke one of the biggest clouds on earth, your capacity plan is already out of date.

  @RhysSullivan I’ve deployed it locally and hooked up a bunch of stuff. Are GitHub issues the preferred feedback channel or do you have a better way?

  Software 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.

  @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 🙌🏼
