    Long Github issue that I should take a flight, too?

    @matteodefelice GitHub or R Universe if possible. I'm not submitting anything to CRAN until they start to address some of the problems there.

    @monarchistaaa @telegram Telegram is safe and has WAY more features, not only this but it's also open source, you can literally go to GitHub and see the app source code, fix bugs yourself, suggest new features, etc etc

    @RunChallenges some changes on the way via github which should (start to) fix the problems...

    @TachiyomiApp I've been using the app on a Fire Tablet for a couple of years now. A few months ago it started giving me a parse error anytime I try to update it. This happens on preview builds and otherwise. Couldn't find any fixes on the github page either.

    just did `*** merge master`. Why does it always feel wrong? rebasing and merging is entirely a github UI problem. it should show commits like a tree, but snapshots of the pr should be browsable pages so reviewers can be like "oh ok this is what I was looking at yesterday"

    @ReneeAl68749638 @JoPhoenix1 No, sadly. The deleted tweets archive is hosted on Github servers in the US, the other three on an an encrypted French server. Somebody in the group knows about IT security, so maybe people should be looking at the Uni's IT dept.

    @phoenix_ykp Both are terrible options in india .The jobs in india are rigged. Rich family that go to prestigious colleges get more salary.i have seen people who don't know what is GitHub or practical knowledge get like 14+ lpa. Higher studies in an another country is way better.

    When GitHub Pages goes down, I go down. Idk if it was an issue on my end or what, but it’s definitely time to close the laptop and go to sleep.

    I'm on a very slow Windows tablet-laptop now that has GitHub and StackOverflow blocked lol.

    Also my little ol Ryzen 7 1700 CPU isn't supported. Well it works regardless. A work around to get Win 11 to install is to register for the Windows Insider program inside Windows update. And look up the Skip_TPM PowerShell Script on Github, for those with the TPM problem.

    @ADefWebserver @jglozano @dotnetfdn Eg I'm talking GitHub public repository to .NET Foundation's internal enterprise server without communication and also the NuGet server locked to disallow changes.

    New interview process: * Clone a random repo in your Org's VCS, and set up a debugger * Write a JIRA/Clubhouse/Github/Trello ticket to implement FizzBuzz. * Tell me if Facebook is down * Find your company's metrics dash and find one weird thing. If they don't have one, STOP.

    A few hours later and nothing. The people on Github are on 🔥. I have some pipelines which fail because of this issue. Hei @npmjs can you give us some helps pls with advisory CVE ID: CVE-2021-41720?

    @matseinarsen I mentioned github but you can move a *** repo and your private keys to a self-hosted *** server at any time. But good point about centralized itunes/kindle/etc purchases: they're really more like leases instead of ownership (that's where DRM comes in, not solved by NFT either)

    @techknowlogick @giteaio @codeberg_org Link seems broken? Get a 404 on GitHub.

  • __paced__

    @JacobMGEvans @github Stiil, a largely unsolved problem that GitHub faces is the massive dominance technologists have over others in multi-discipline teams. E.g., writers & designers etc must access PM tools. They may use Trello or ZenHub as a stop-gap. I'm wondering if @github is planning for this?

  • Psy_Fer_
    James Ferguson (@Psy_Fer_) reported

    @JollyJoeLalli @RiyueSunnyBao @nilshomer At the same time, now after publishing a few papers, I can say that the papers really don't give a full description of what is going on, and we rely on "go look at the github" to fix that. Mostly this is fine, as we do what we can to make it clear. But not everyone does.

    @FORSBERGtwo I have the same problem. One option is to use an hosted dev environment such as github codespace. Some companies have made the transition and found this much more productive. Another option is to develop an open source tool made for shopify app.

    If GitHub/Lab goes down, do you have backups of your work, or is the only other copy on your computer only?

    @_secana_ @Kiview Can you either file issues on winger’s github or just cheat and tell me what installers you are having issues with? /cc @DenelonMs

    I submitted a minor typo fix to a project on GitHub on May 10, 2017, and twice in about a week someone has reached out to me out of the blue like "hey let's talk about this tool in detail since you're an owner". tbh this kind of thing doesn't really encourage me to do it again.

    @dalkescientific I was following the Issues on Github and was wondering how much work it would be to extend the code base to completely work in the DB. Would that be possible and sensible?

    @MilesMcBain ok good to know! I will use github then! The package helps a lot when: 1. you work with people using excel 2. you need to copy a bunch of data items to your RStudio server machine and you don't want to waste time uploading things

    It was the DNF itself that shut down the private members-only chat a couple of months ago in favor of Github Discussions. That's a positive development, IMHO - it should build that muscle for doing and discussing in public. Sometimes that's going to be messy.

    @JacobMGEvans @anze3db @github Sunken costs is we spent 10k on it so far so we should keep using it. Migration costs are not sunken costs, they’re the setup costs and it’s the new providers job to either reduce those or justify them. Often it’s not JIRA that is the issue it’s how it’s configured
