  @github It's PRs all the way down

  Not sure if it's exactly what you want, but I actually just made something similar for myself - notes, tasks on kanban, self-hostable sync server, built-in mcp support. It doesn't integrate with calendars right now though, so might not be a good fit for you. It's free and open source, called Lorestead on my github if you want to check it out.

  @airwarmedd duality of kids to look down on a girl in the post for not having github but getting into google, but when i said cp and github are not the only thing to get job nowadays, he said i looked down on people who grind??? bruhh also before lecturing me maybe a little visit through profile could have given him enough context.

  Probably a hot take hot take but you see, I don't think people often browse code of the repo on github that often. If they do it's usually after a clone on their own machines. But still it takes the most screen real estate when you visit a repo. It IS in fact a design issue.

  @_lhermann @DmytroKrasun Had a similar issue with GitHub Copilot. Not usable therefore. But for Sponsors, can't you just write the invoice yourself, since you are invoicing GitHub?

  @inkblotPrincess The only reason people have a problem with github is because they can’t read and need a giant shiny download button that does everything for them

  @btbytes I'm locking down certain things via yubikey. Strange behaviors that heightened awareness: writing directly to a database in a docker container because harness forgot how to get API key, using github account to issue public PR without permission ("my bad").

  @HarryStebbings A few months ago had an issue with my GitHub account, contacted support + like 5 people. No answer! Then went for one of the top guys (that I didn’t know personally), he responded and got the team to fix it for me. Sometimes the ex comes from the top indeed

  Expanding on this a bit - the thing is that I just don’t care. The people running GitHub also, rightfully, do not care. “Waaah I can’t find the download”. Okay? Why is this my problem? You contribute nothing. Which is fine, you don’t have to, but you not being able to download something is a personal problem. It’s just not relevant at all. Who cares

  HOW IS THIS EVEN POSSIBLE? FREE ACCESS TO EVERY LLM IN THE WORLD AND 100% PRIVATE? Someone posted an HTML file on the Github, and my brain can't comprehend what it does: > Free access to Claude, Grok, Gemini and Chat GPT > You ask one question and get 4 responses > Runs in your browser, no subscription, login or whatever I am leaving the link below, but not sure how legal this is, because this is too cool

  @openlibrary Two of our largest project management challenges on github are: 1. Too many issues [700+] (that are not well broken down) 2. Too many comments on issues [5+ a day] (often eager contributors wanting to work on issues that are not broken down)

  Something something the purpose of a system is what it does GitHub is absolutely intended to be a place to host code but it at some point became a file sharing platform instead of an open source platform and that’s why people who are less tech-literate have problems

  @sophiiess_ I don't think it would hurt for the UX around downloading builds to be a little more intuitive regardless of who the site js "meant" for because non-technical users are frequently directed to use a tool hosted on github to solve a niche problem they have.

  Claude Obsidian v2 just dropped. It gives Claude a perfect memory. For free. It's an open source plugin for Claude Code. MIT license. On GitHub right now. Here's how it works: → Drop any file into an inbox folder → Claude reads it, links it, and files it forever → Every claim keeps its source. Ask a question, get an answer with citations from YOUR notes → If the vault doesn't know, it says so. No making things up The problem it kills: AI wakes up as a goldfish every morning. You re-teach it your business. Every. Single. Day. Now your knowledge compounds instead of disappearing. The old way: 5 hours a week playing librarian. This way: 2 minutes. Your agents file everything for you. Setup takes 10 minutes. The plugin is free. Obsidian is free. Save this before you forget it. Your AI won't. Want the SOP? DM me. 💬

  I was looking "free vsynth where the user can build its own vb" and found one called "Nova-vox" but the installer gives a 404 error when I try to use it, and though they have a Github, it only gives an installer in code (which I don't know) Can Twitter do it's thing and help me?

  @ShitpostRock and rest of the episode is them trying all the popular wine forks and patching their systems. the episode ends with them finding a github repo with 2 starts and runs the game with no issues whatsoever

  @ThePracticalDev why can I login with Google, GitHub, X, etc - but if I choose, say GitHub, I can later only link my Facebook account? What if I want to link my X or Google account later on?

  @sophiiess_ Why are people acting like it’s some super confusing process to download things from GitHub when basically any repository you just scroll down and they will have text that says “click here to download latest release” or that tells you which of like 4 downloadables to click??

  Someone built a way to send a file from one phone to another with no wifi, no bluetooth, no network at all. One screen flashes an endless stream of QR codes. The other phone points its camera at it and rebuilds the file out of the light. No pairing, no app, no shared network. Watch it pull a 2MB image across at ~129 KB/s. I went straight to the repo, because the obvious question is: how does this not fall apart the moment the camera misses a frame? Turns out the clever part isn't the QR codes at all. A screen-to-camera link is one way. The receiver can't tap the sender and say "resend frame 400", and it WILL miss frames. Blur, autofocus hunting, the screen refreshing mid-capture. Every one of those is a hole in your data. So the sender never transmits the file in order. It uses fountain codes. Every frame is the XOR of a random mix of the file's blocks, not one clean piece of it. The receiver grabs whatever frames it can catch, in any order, and once it has roughly 15% more than the file size, it peels the whole thing back out. Miss a frame? Another random mix is right behind it. There's no "resend", only "keep collecting until you have enough". That's why you can point your camera at a stream that's already running and it just locks on. My favorite detail from the source: the sender and receiver have to generate the exact same random sequence, independently. But JavaScript's Math.log is approximated differently across engines, so a laptop and an iPhone can drift by a single rounding error and silently desync the entire transfer. They caught it and hand-rolled a deterministic log to fix it. That's the kind of bug that eats a whole night. Open source, MIT, built with Claude Code. The thing I keep relearning: the interesting engineering is almost never the flashy part. The QR codes get the screenshot. The fountain code is why it works. GitHub repo in the comments 👇

  Karpathy posted 800 words on GitHub. 41,000 developers read it and realized they were burning $1,000 a month on tools they didn't need. The fix is 3 folders. Costs nothing. What you see in this video is a real knowledge system after months of actual use. Thousands of nodes. Every connection built deliberately. No subscription required. How much are you paying for something a folder structure could replace?

  @sophiiess_ no, github is basically pre-loading VSCode in your browser. that's the real problem

  Every bug you fix in AI-written code is free training data for the model that wrote it. You're debugging *and* paying for the next model's R&D in one sitting. GitHub Copilot generates 46% of all code (up from 27% in 2022). Gartner projects 60% by end of 2026. Devs pay $200–$600/month per engineer for AI tools. Each correction feeds RL training — the more you pay, the faster they replace you. 42% of committed code is already AI-generated. What's the first SE role that disappears entirely to AI agents? @github #AICoding #DevTools #Automation

  @theo hello dr theonitus would you like picthing bugs/feature requests sent via dm or just posts? I checked your githubb for a place to submit issues but I don't think I saw one but I'm also a github n00b. Just wanted to make sure I'm sending it to your preferred place. Cheers.

  @cassidoo Better PR review UX. GitHub has not meaningfully adapted to the agentic era. Two big problems remain: 1. Agents write bigger PRs than humans. 2. Agents submit PRs more often than humans.

  @H3XENSCHL4CHT the problem is github users using it as a place to have their software donwloaded from instead of just hosting the code, letting ppl contribute and whatever other stuff devs do on github

  @grok @stepango houseboat is just a feature set of labeled github issues. Decapod is a governance kernel allowing concurrent agent work in the same repo on the same machine, without stepping on eachother by creating and claiming todos... and that's just one more tip of the iceberg.
