  • Seriouslyshallo El Profesor (@Seriouslyshallo) reported

    Here is my problem with $GTLB - The sector is great - The TAM is "supposed" to be USD 40bn - The management and the business model are fine BUT The market cap is already USD 8.5bn and Github got sold to $MSFT for $7.5bn recently, and they have way better metrics I'll wait...

  • cungminh2710 Minh Cung (@cungminh2710) reported

    @fwouts @previewjs Not sure of Windows but Github Actions on MacOs are generally slower (sometimes super slow) and more expensive.

  • m_yxnk Mayank (@m_yxnk) reported

    @samwightt @github the problem with code-as-configuration is that it needs to be checked into the source code. if the rest of my team doesn't use codespaces, i can't "just" add a devcontainer file to the repo

  • GLStephen Stephen Johnston (@GLStephen) reported

    Hey @github - I've been a huge advocate of codespaces, but a bug has our normal dev environment process down for ~5 dys. No support response for 5 days. First response nearly useless. Paid plan. Help? Not acceptable for a core workflow service.

  • fullStackRacc Beloise (@fullStackRacc) reported

    @sbworld actually, doing even more reading, it is leagues beyond what github is putting out and actually is avoiding a *lot* of the issues people have

  • MeikTranel Meik Tranel (@MeikTranel) reported

    Hey @Tashkant noticed the container SDK being developed ATM in my GitHub feed. Was super excited but now it moves in a direction that I don't actually get - is there a design document somewhere that shows what y'all are actually trying to achieve - a usecase, problem statement...

  • levicook korg (@levicook) reported

    Pro tip: If you're writing "get over yourselves" on a GitHub issue, step away from the keyboard. It will never be productive.

  • Venota_IOTA Venota.iota (@Venota_IOTA) reported

    @ChaingerDao @EdmundBellKing1 @soon_labs What are they prolonging? The development can't be prolonged if it never had a deadline... Your only defense can be that they've slowed down work but checking GitHub they've actually sped up in number of commits since shimmer was announced, so I'll ask again, what's prolonged?

  • oleschoenburg Ole Schönburg (@oleschoenburg) reported

    @zkat__ I wish GitHub had threads. Those could be collapsed easily and solve at least part of the "timeline is too long" issue. First revision of a PR had a lot of bikeshedding and back and forth and it's not relevant anymore? Just collapse that part and you get to the interesting bit

  • nabil_haouam Nabil Haouam (@nabil_haouam) reported

    GitHub comments on issues are priceless. Had a prob with nvm today, I didn't have a .bash_profile file. Tried to troubleshoot but nothing worked , but then I found a comment in a GitHub issue. Solution was simple, just run : touch .bash_profile. Lesson : read all comments.

  • seiranib seiranib (@seiranib) reported

    Reading a discussion in a github issue that seems to summarize to "we shouldn't mark these memory corruption bugs as a high because I'm tired of being told about high sev memory corruption bugs"

  • Avinesh__T Avinesh Tripathi (@Avinesh__T) reported

    @iximiuz All day i encountered GRUB error due to which had to dual boot again but day ended with some namespaces and imperative commands and solving a GitHub issue

  • hotelzululima hotelzululima-crap we in for it now with Omicron (@hotelzululima) reported

    @NEMSLinux @Raspberry_Pi was noticing things were kind of sparse on github.. ie no issues filed updates seems to be as of 11 days ago.. only 4 followers etc

  • JasonGoDev Jason Go (@JasonGoDev) reported

    @LeaVerou @github Kids nowadays don't know UI and usability issues.

  • richgel999 Richard Geldreich (@richgel999) reported

    Game Developers pay each texture artist hundreds of thousands of dollars per year to create stellar looking textures. Then many lossy encode the results using a $0 dollar open source compressor. They file bugs on github expecting us to fix issues for nothing. Makes little sense.

  • NEMSLinux 🅽🅴🅼🆂 𝙇𝙞𝙣𝙪𝙭 (@NEMSLinux) reported

    @hotelzululima @Raspberry_Pi Thanks. Someone posted on the Discord earlier today. At a glance it appears as though the repository connections on Github are broken (a Github problem). I'm going to be looking into it and fixing asap. This will not be an issue with 1.6 since it uses a Debian repository instead.

  • danpdev Dan P (@danpdev) reported

    @chrisrickard And always do your research, similar code may be available for you to use or extract ideas from! I have spent hours on projects only to realise that a very similar problem was solved on GitHub and I could have fast tracked my work by reviewing it first

  • SxnisterTactics Hubert von Vestra (@SxnisterTactics) reported

    //I just realized this doesn't have Shez since the FE tier maker github doesn't have Three Hopes last I checked. So... It could work, but it would have to be slow burn for reasons I can't outright say yet. Then again, Hubert wouldn't get involved in romance until post-war anyway

  • simonw Simon Willison (@simonw) reported

    @webology Basically every problem in my life looks like a SQLite database with Datasette in front of it these days I've been meaning to establish a pattern of automatic backups to a GitHub repo for these kinds of personal apps since I trust their backup mechanisms a lot more than mine!

  • RaabM Marcel Raab (@RaabM) reported

    Closing remark: Note that I am rather new to R and perfectly aware that the code for the library could be easily improved. If you have any suggestions or find issues please let me know (e.g. via GitHub). (8/8)

  • allafarce Dave Guarino (@allafarce) reported

    @gordonbrander So I’ve been struggling with this: my most recent system uses GitHub Issues precisely because a write API doesn’t require some rigamarole around local files. Feeling the pull of centralization…

  • rajavijayach Raja Vijaya Saradhi (@rajavijayach) reported

    I miss days when browser tabs were filled up with Github issues, StackOverflow, random blogs, and localhost

  • alexbussey Alex Bussey (@alexbussey) reported

    @sitepointdotcom I can't login or sign up for SitePoint. I tried logging in with an existing account with email/password and also signing up with GitHub. Tried both Brave and Safari. No error - just brought back to login screen.

  • jejunestarfcker "Weird Al"dous Huxley (@jejunestarfcker) reported

    @github can we get a way to customize the day dependabot alerts come in? i keep getting the emails about my personal projects at the start of my work week and then i forget about them before i have time to fix them

  • MarkAnnuncio Mark Annuncio (@MarkAnnuncio) reported

    @mariviere1 @LisaDeBruine @Cghlewis Another consideration is if I want to put publication and everything on GitHub so let's say someone reported issue/pull request seems cleaner to have separated scripts rather than overloading the .rmd file

  • sunIightbro sunlightbro (@sunIightbro) reported

    @remi_rousselet With good lints for freezed, there would be a lot less redundant issues/questions on github. If you wanna focus on riverpod first and want some help for freezed, let me know.

  • SRacoon23 SlyRacoon (@SRacoon23) reported

    @ETHGlobal @SheldonTrotman Github link for source code is 404 error

  • tabatkins (@tabatkins) reported

    @LeaVerou @github Bikeshed's syntax highlighting file specifically uses the error class to highlight headings for visibility as well. It's the only way to make them stand out sufficiently cross-theme.

  • JarvisScript Chris Jarvis @ Front-end Test Fest (@JarvisScript) reported

    GitHub is trending. Is it down? Nope just random unrelated tweets.

  • MagickNET 🧙‍♂️Dirk Lemstra (@MagickNET) reported

    @liran_tal @github Maybe but the problem here is that I suspect that the user did not get an instant response to the question so they decided to raise an issue instead.
