  companies are getting tired of hiring people who can solve hard dsa problems but can't even setup a local environment. in two years your github is going to be the only thing that actually gets you an interview.

  5/5 HTTPS = HTTP + TLS. TLS doesn't just encrypt data — it also authenticates the server (so you know you're talking to the real GitHub, not a clone). The 🔒 icon means two things: → The connection is encrypted. → The server is who it claims to be. Most people know the first part. The second part is where the real security lives. Save this if you're building your infra fundamentals. Follow for more real DevOps breakdowns. 🔁

  @stephenhaney The main current issue with design.md (or any ref really) is there’s no “single source of truth” place to put it yet. It sort of moved in, but is sleeping on the couch. So GitHub is the closest to a proper bed.

  The fact that so many people have built these apps and websites, only for most of them to end up in GitHub graveyards, shows that there is a huge market gap. A good solution on paper to an almost impossible problem to solve on ground

  @catrageroom @edzitron The news has mainly been about the claude code CLI, not Anthropic model usage via GitHub CLI/vs code, so I assume the issue isn't token pricing (who knows if there was some extra cost being paid to use Claude code CLI though)

  Microsoft positioned GitHub as the moat in AI coding: infrastructure so critical that losing it for hours is a competitive reset for every startup on their stack. Except infrastructure that goes down isn't a moat, it's a liability. $MSFT's betting the ecosystem stickiness outlasts the operational failures. History says that's a bad bet.

  Mitch Mitchem (@TheMitchMitchem) reported 20 minutes ago

  @BladeoftheS I love doing this all day, "Mostly false. Here's the real story: The factual core is real but tiny. Microsoft IS canceling internal Claude Code licenses (Anthropic's coding tool) for its Experiences and Devices engineering team by June 30, 2026, moving them to GitHub Copilot CLI instead. Claude Code proved very popular inside Microsoft over the past six months, perhaps a little too popular, and the licenses were expensive. But everything else in that quote is wrong or misleading: "Microsoft is canceling its internal AI usage" False. They're swapping one AI coding tool for their own AI coding tool (Copilot CLI). Microsoft is doubling down on internal AI, not cutting it. They're embedding Copilot across Windows, Office, Azure, and development tools. "The company it gets its AI from" Conflated. Microsoft is heavily invested in OpenAI, not Anthropic. Claude Code is made by Anthropic, a separate company. Anthropic's Claude models remain accessible through Microsoft Foundry and inside Microsoft 365 Copilot, so the partnership continues at the model layer. "The end is coming and the AI collapse has begun" Pure spin and a flat out lie. This is a classic build-versus-buy decision, and Microsoft is choosing to build. Companies replacing a vendor tool with their own product is the opposite of collapse, it's competition. Microsoft itself reportedly saved more than $500M last year in its call center thanks to artificial intelligence tools.

  @fareszr Ok now is clear. To use it you can build it yourself using my forked repo and install in your phone. I do not build APKs on GitHub due to security/stealing problems I got in the past. Feel free to build it yourself!

  @adnanthekhan composio is an agent tool connector. this isn't a github problem, it's an agent trust boundary problem. every MCP server your agent talks to is a credential exfil vector. scoped short-lived tokens + egress filtering > scanning after the fact

  🟦 $BASE token is coming and if you're sleeping on this, you're going to be very upset in a few months. Someone just caught token transfer logic, token factory tests & supply functions buried in Base's GitHub commits. 👀 They weren't announced. Nobody talked about it. The devs just quietly pushed the code. And that's exactly how it starts. Some other things to notice as well: → Jesse Pollak flipped the script at BaseCamp 2025 - the same team that said "no token plans" is now officially exploring one. U-turn confirmed. → Brian Armstrong backed it up. When the Coinbase CEO starts talking about it publicly, that's not exploration, that's a slow green light. → $15B TVL, 15M daily transactions, zero native token. That's not normal. They know it. Fix incoming. → Arbitrum said "no token" too. Then dropped $ARB. You've seen this movie before. → Polymarket sitting at 69% probability before end of 2026. That's real money, not hopium. → No snapshot. No eligibility criteria. The farming window is STILL open. @base is loading 🔥 Don't say you weren't warned.

  @josecanciani @levelsio It is hard to explain if you dont know the stack. It is really funny what our job looks like, compared to the people who use python + VS Code + Github + idk what (talking out of my *** here) and shipping iOS apps or web apps. The platform is closed source, build on top of an oracle database. They allow their customers to “parameterize / customize” it. As a result, I’m kind of forbidden from making direct interactions with the database. Everything goes through an interface. Typical tasks are things like: add a new input form, create a new workflow, design a new document to print and fill it with customer data (which requires deep knowledge of how the bank setup its static data, with all the quirks and exceptions. The LLM would have to learn the entire kernel codebase, the entire documentation, the entire customer codebase, the entire database structure, the entire Jira history with all the issues, the Confluence specifications. Maybe then it would be able to come up with something. But don’t LLMs program iteratively? They compile and test? I don’t know how that would work with my software. The installation takes a long time and is triggered from a drag-and-drop tool, no command line available.

  CISA leaking AWS GovCloud keys on GitHub in the same week CISA adds Langflow to KEV is the kind of timing that makes you wonder if the simulation developers are just getting lazy with the writing. The agency responsible for telling every other organization to rotate credentials and scan for secrets in repos... exposed credentials in a repo. Not through a supply chain compromise. Not through a sophisticated attack chain. Through the most elementary operational security failure that exists. Every CISA advisory about credential hygiene, every binding operational directive about secrets management, every public guidance document about not committing keys to version control — all of it is still correct. And the organization that wrote it didn't follow it. This is the structural problem with security guidance as a product: the people who write best practices and the people who implement infrastructure are different groups with different incentive structures, and compliance frameworks don't close that gap. They paper over it. The fix isn't more guidance. It's pre-commit hooks that block secrets from ever reaching the remote. Automated. Mandatory. Not optional. We've had this technology for years and we still treat it as nice-to-have.

  "Just read the docs." Every senior dev. Every single one. Bro I did read the docs. The docs say to check the GitHub issue. The GitHub issue says it's fixed in v2. v2 broke something else. The v2 issue has 47 comments and no solution. The last comment is from 2021. The maintainer hasn't been online since. Stack Overflow has the question but it's marked duplicate. The duplicate is closed. The closed one links back to the docs. And we're back to the beginning. "Just read the docs" is not advice. It's what people say when they forgot how painful learning actually was.

  @NehraWorkss the real senior skill is not reading docs it’s surviving the endless loop between docs, github issues, Stack overflow, and abandoned repos

  A 14 year old in China sold his first Python script for $40 on GitHub. The buyer turned out to be his own CS teacher. He did not find out until the first day back at school, when the teacher put it on the projector as an example of professional AI development. The kid was sitting in the third row. In America they are banning teachers from touching ChatGPT. In China a teacher just paid one of his own students for an AI agent and has no idea. He had built it over winter break instead of seeing his friends. Two weeks of asking Claude questions every night after his parents went to sleep. When the $40 came in he spent all of it on a Fortnite skin the same day and went back to coding. He pushed the project to GitHub with a README in broken English. ai agent that does homework and finds answers from any website. It sat at zero stars. He closed the laptop and went to dinner. GitHub Sponsors does not show the buyer's name. Just a username he had never seen. He did not care. The $40 was already a virtual outfit for a character he plays two hours a day. Then February. First class back. The teacher opened with a presentation on AI agents and ran a demo. A Python script that scans websites, pulls the data, summarizes it with Claude and sends structured reports on its own. I found this tool online and it changed how I prepare my lessons. It pulls from thirty sources in three seconds. This used to take me two hours every evening. The kid recognized everything. The variable names. The file structure. The comments he had left in Chinese because he was too lazy to translate them. His teacher was showing his code to forty students as an example of what a professional developer can build. He did not say anything. He went home and checked the fork count. 847. A university in Beijing had forked it to grade two hundred papers overnight. A tutor in Shanghai forked it into a homework checking service and charges parents fifteen dollars a month. A company in Hangzhou turned it into a support bot for an online store. All from a script a bored kid wrote over winter break with Claude. The forty dollars is a Fortnite skin. The code is running in three cities. His teacher still uses it every day and still has no idea who wrote it. The kid never told him. He said it would be too weird to tell your teacher that the tool he shows off to every class was written by the boy in the third row who still gets a B minus on the coding assignments. He gets the B minus for the code he writes in class, by hand. The A plus code is the one he writes at home with Claude. That is the one the teacher bought for forty dollars and presents as professional work. 847 forks. Three companies. One classroom that runs his code every day. He still sits in the third row. He still gets a B minus. Same kid. Same code. The grade just depends on who is looking.

  today i'm switching from neovim to helix i truly love neovim. but neovim relies on third party plugins, and the third party plugin ecosystem relies on pulling the latest commit from github from a ton of different authors. if any one of them get hacked, then i get hacked. just like the recent npm supply chain issues, except even worse, because *** repos aren't designed to be packages like this. helix is all-in-one, which does not have this supply chain issue, and is thus intrinsically more secure. good experience so far - it's pretty vim-like. let's see how it goes.
