DFIR Radar (@DFIR_Radar) reportedTeamPCP threat actor launches coordinated supply chain attack targeting developer ecosystem. Malicious npm packages in @antv namespace, GitHub Actions, and VSCode extensions deploy credential harvesters and Python backdoors across compromised development environments. Technical details: - Multi-stage infection chain uses orphaned GitHub commits to store payloads (T1195.002) - Bun package manager executes secondary payloads for credential theft - Targets GitHub tokens, SSH keys, cloud credentials, browser secrets (T1555) - Exfiltrates data via attacker-created GitHub repos with description "niagA oG eW ereH :duluH-iahS" Persistence mechanisms: - Python backdoor deployed to ~/.local/share/kitty/cat.py - macOS: ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.user.kitty-monitor.plist - Linux: ~/.config/systemd/user/kitty-monitor.service - C2 polling for signed commands containing "firedalazer" string Impact scope includes compromised npm packages (@antv namespace), actions-cool/issues-helper GitHub Action, and nrwl.angular-console VSCode extension v18.95.0. Hunt for the kitty/cat.py backdoor file and monitor GitHub API calls for unauthorized repository creation from development systems. #DFIR_Radar

Lee Penkman (@LeeLeepenkman) reported@gxjo_dev stupidity... no... frupidity basically. like the exec cfo team is like well what if we reduce headcount wouldnt profitability go up? Like yes but you just wont be a good product company without a good product... like you are already struggling to compete with GitHub lmao... how u gna compere with codex n claude when they do repos? Also theres just fear that these devs cant learn AI which is kind of wrong because devs seem to be best placed to leverage AI of all? idk. im just guessing. lots of saas companies just doing layoffs had hired too many people having thought they would keep growing then they didnt their stock went way down and becomes harder to raise money for them because of bearish outlook for them competing with claude so investors scared off so harder for them to afford lots of developers so kind of start sinking. the devs would do better elsewhere anyway better to be on a new ship instead of sinking one.

Nicholas Losciuto - Dog Dad (@thedogfather) reported@Replit @amasad Replit is forcing me to spin up sub-agents for every push to Github. First, cost $10 just to rebase. Then 6 failed commits for two edits that were 5/10 complicated. Each requiring a new sub-agent to push to ***. I'm also out an hour of my time. Same issues on my other apps. Already had to switch to Codex but came back to try again, seems worse. Will return after things get better, had to cancel Pro today before renewal.

Strong Genetics (@Strong_Genetics) reportedListed my first issue on GitHub for openclaw today and it was diamond lobster grade and it was closed within an hour or so by the awesome developers in the Clawtributors Discord... They are tackling stuff fast....Glad I could contribute..... Besides that one issue I flagged 5.18 has been rolling
-
Tom (@T3metrics) reported@JasonLixfeld Yeah it's all docker. I'm not sure what you mean. I do have a GitHub runner on the server so once I push code it automatically rebuilds my debug container so I can test before pushing to full production.
-
Kamil Skowron (@kamilskowron) reported@donutkiller_pro If you could - always confirm with the current main branch. If the issues show up on that branch - it would be best if you could dump the generated report into GitHub issues please ๐๐ป

Cengiz Han (@hancengiz) reported@steipete @useblacksmith It's GitHub tho:) Recent "fast" compliance issues motivate me to minimize third-party source-code exposure and reduce attack surface, but their pricing is tempting tbh.

Muhammad Ayan (@socialwithaayan) reported๐จ Someone just open sourced a complete Calendly alternative with 43.6K GitHub stars. And it was built by a company that raised $32M to compete with Calendly. It's called cal. diy. The Cal. com team forked their own product, ripped out every piece of enterprise and commercial code, and released it under MIT license. โ Booking pages with custom availability โ Google, Outlook, Apple Calendar sync โ Video conferencing via Daily. co โ Round-robin scheduling โ Recurring events and custom booking forms โ Timezone detection and embeddable widgets โ Full API access No license key. No feature gates. No user limits. Self-hosted on your own server. Calendly charges $12/seat/month. This does the same thing for $0. 100% Open Source. MIT License.

Ladyjojo (@lady_jojo12) reportedHey @github my account was suspended and I'm not sure why , i was trying to login through the CL and i just got kicked out .My account has important project including my first baby project as a new developer . Please help me understand what happened and how to resolve this.

Chris Dunne (@_chrisdunne) reported@AishwaryaDevv GitHub audit logs are terrible, you have to work around a lot of crap to get visibility, if no oneโs reached out by now theyโre not even looking.

John Loeber ๐ข (@johnloeber) reportedThere was a moment in 2023 when people thought that GitHub was the future of AI coding. I remember when many people on Twitter wrote off Cursor and Windsurf because they expected GitHub Copilot to crush everyone. "GitHub has all the data, they're so deeply integrated into the dev ecosystem, they sit right at the root of the dev stack and can verticalize all the way..." so many insightful opinions from the Twitter Commentariat, and yet reality played out in exactly the opposite way. Humbling for prediction-makers! Today, GitHub is down to one 9 of reliability, and I haven't heard of any of their AI features in a year. All one can ask is: what happened? Two or three years ago, people thought this was going to be a $100B+ asset. Now it's looking like the next Skype, just a slowly-enshittified product in an M&A graveyard. I used to know smart people who worked there. Not anymore...

promptaholic (@promptaholic) reportedthe github bot spam thing. they used *** --author flag to filter noise. that's it. that's the whole move. not a ml model. not a fancy filter. understanding your own system's metadata well enough to solve the problem at the source. 52 systems later this is still the pattern. builders read their tools. dependents wait for tools to be readable

Hiren Thakkar (@thehirenthakkar) reportedMicrosoft's GitHub got a 400% increase in organic traffic. No new content. No link building. No redesign. They fixed cannibalization. Blog posts competing with marketing pages. Multiple pages fighting for the same keyword. None winning. Removed the mess. 400% increase. Check it today for free: โ Screaming Frog: crawl your site, export titles + H1s + canonicals. Two pages targeting same keyword? One is killing the other. Missing canonicals? Even worse. โ Detailed SEO Extension: free Chrome plugin. One click shows canonical, title, H1, H2s. โ Google Search Console: filter by keyword โ Pages tab. Multiple URLs? That's cannibalization. Fix: pick strongest page. Redirect or no-index the rest. Add missing canonicals. Sometimes you don't need more content. You need the basics done right. Try it this weekend and tell me what you find. (GitHub case study via Brain Labs.)

Vaibhav Sisinty (@VaibhavSisinty) reportedthis is a weirdly revealing list. the 5 fastest-growing GitHub repos this week all solve a problem AI was supposed to have already solved. the 5 blowing up ๐งต
-
pre.dev (@predotdev) reportedThat is wildly expensive, incredibly slow, and dilutes the AI's focus with endless noise. Worse, the code only tells half the story. It shows how things were built, not why. The actual architectural decisions live outside the code, in Jira tickets and GitHub discussions.

Gregor (@bygregorr) reported@github first commit to supabase-js in 2023. one typo fix. still think about it

ToZx (@Tozxart) reportedalmost 3 weeks now and still no real reply from @github support. they sent the same โhigh ticket volumeโ email last week and thatโs it. my account got falsely flagged, @github Pages is down, my portfolio is down, @GitHubCopilot got cut off, and everything is still broken. please actually review my case already. ticket #4349438

ใธใงใณ (@jcinjpn) reportedItโs abundantly clear that GitHub is going to burn itself down in its own land grab for AI. We need an open alternative or one done by a player that isnโt in the model game.

RileyTheGroove (@animriley) reported@The_AI_Investor Pretty much. If you have OpenAI, GitHub, Azure, and enterprise distribution, missing coding agents is an org problem, not a science problem.

Dr Milan Milanoviฤ (@milan_milanovic) reported๐ง๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ถ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ป ๐๐ผ๐๐ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ฃ๐ฒ๐ผ๐ฝ๐น๐ฒ ๐๐ผ ๐ฌ๐ผ๐๐ฟ ๐ง๐ฒ๐ฎ๐บ Researchers studied thousands of open-source projects on GitHub to examine how individual productivity changes as teams grow. The numbers are interesting: ๐ฎ-๐ฑ ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ผ๐ฝ๐น๐ฒ: 1,850 lines of code per developer per month ๐ญ๐ฌ ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ผ๐ฝ๐น๐ฒ: 1,200 lines per developer (a 35% drop) ๐ฑ๐ฌ+ ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ผ๐ฝ๐น๐ฒ: 450 lines per developer (a 75% drop) This is the Ringelmann Effect. In the 1880s, a French engineer, Max Ringelmann, had people pull on a rope and measured how hard each person actually pulled. One person pulling alone gave 100% effort. Two gave about 93% each. Eight gave around 50%. The total force kept growing. Per-person effort kept dropping. Each added body did less than the one before. The same thing happens in software teams. The mechanism has two parts. First, ๐๐ผ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ฎ๐น ๐น๐ผ๐ฎ๐ณ๐ถ๐ป๐ด. In a meeting of 3, you speak. In a meeting of 20, you assume someone else will. Same thing in code: when 10 engineers share a feature, some quietly assume someone else has the tricky parts. Second, ๐ฐ๐ผ๐ผ๐ฟ๐ฑ๐ถ๐ป๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป ๐ผ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ต๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ฑ. The number of relationships in a team of N people is N(N-1)/2. A team of 4 has 6 relationships. A team of 6 has 15. A team of 10 has 45. Each new hire adds N more channels for code reviews, merge conflicts, discussions, and meetings. None of those ship's features. This is why Amazon creates teams at a size that two pizzas can feed (5-8 people). It's why open-source projects with thousands of contributors split themselves into small subsystem teams instead of a single massive committee. The fix isn't to make large teams more efficient. Past a point, you can't. The fix is to stop building large teams. Cap core teams at 9. Split when you cross 15. Use modular architectures so coordination stays local, not global. Make individual contributions visible so loafing has nowhere to hide. Adding the 10th engineer probably won't speed up your team. It will just make the other 10 a little slower.
