    @hibzzgames Bruh, not gonna lie... Being all hyped up to add new features and visual studio xamarin throwing a build error is a bummer. No problem... Let's try and fix it first? Right? NOPE. It's a bug with a github issue filed from 2019 that the xamarin developers still haven't fixed....

    @Piyushsthr Happened with me once, in my case the problem was with codetime extension, I raised an issue on GitHub and the team members were kind enough to get the problem sorted, check your extension logs and try disabling all extensions and load them one by one if that could help

    @github @Microsoft Also good to know I can count on you for support, if ever I want to hunt down minorities and forcefully sterilize them.

    @howardnoakley I posted to a GitHub thread about this, and someone replied that files in user space are normally not accessed until after login, so the cause of the delay must be something else. And I just booted my MBP and it seems that there was no pause. So what could the cause be?

    @Eufeion Ok, then yeah it could be a core override that's affecting it. Unfortunately with all of the recent changes to ArkOS I'm not sure where the overrides folder is anymore in order for you to manually tweak it. I would recommend adding a note in the Issues tab on the ArkOS GitHub

    @V8AAAAAA @Ghostl1x @JoshA20_ powercord is better. simply, all plugins have to be from a github repo, plugins have to follow TOS aka no message loggers/selfbots (if they are publicly posted). the plugin repo on the discord server is the main place to get plugins from. its much safer imo

    @LupinityLabs @pfrazee @andrewosh In a perfect world GitHub would already have support for issue/PR moderation, where I would get an opportunity to decide if I accept an issue or PR as valid *before* it shows up in my repository. This idea is just trying to create that from user-land.

    @KarlKFI @amitkgupta84 @ibuildthecloud The enterprises have so much time to learn all 59 Kubernetes APIs, get on top of 2000 open issues in GitHub, figure out all networking, load balancing, proxy-ing, service meshing, federation, security, then 3 types cloud kubes plus on-prem department and then...

    @github Reporting a UX pain point during issue template creation: - I was setting up multiple issue templates - One of the issues warranted a new type of label, so I clicked "Edit Labels" - Browser sent me to the Labels page in the same tab, and I lost all my issue template WIP

    @ptyx11 @souljaboy @AtomicDEX yes mate, it took me about 10-15 minutes to decide on the chain params looking at dev docs. setting up cloud server another 10+ min. $kmd Smartchain setup maybe 15-20+ min. GitHub website + domain, like 1+ hour. rest of the community helped with explorer + wallet + DEX. 😎🤓🚀

    @DigitalizedDan Depends on what features you can about I guess. Loom is fine. Benefit of screenshots/gifs is you can drop them on the issue and GitHub will host them, so they're less likely to disappear than a third party service.

    And to address the obvious elephant, are we to some degree competitive? Yes, I imagine for some use cases/customers, but not as much as many might assume. We've never faced an "either-or" choice between Sourcegraph and GitHub—we are tackling different problems.

    @JnBrymn I use GitHub stars a lot. The problem is you can't search then sort by latest starred

    Task failed successfully 😐. Maybe I should create an issue on GitHub.

    @payloadartist Or grepping/CTRL+F through the source code. I always start to laugh when the only relevant match of a error is the implementation of it in the GitHub Project.

    Github Notifications For projects I am interested in, I enable release or specific issue notification to get notified. I'll skip over release notes for bigger releases to see if there is anything interesting.

    @JohnDraisey about the redundancy yep, that one theory i said if based on Github leak seems true, only full chip usage, means the SOC will super prone to overheat-> glitch artifact, as there is not redundant CU there

  • adamwathan
    Adam Wathan (@adamwathan) reported

    @LupinityLabs @pfrazee @andrewosh But in reality it's totally unfair to maintainers to expect that every single issue will get a thoughtful response. Under that expectation, you can effectively DDOS a maintainer's life, which is why OSS maintainers burn out. GitHub needs to help maintainers claim their time back.

    @weights_biases I have just created a wandb account using my GitHub as login and it has made my GitHub password my wandb username. I would like to deactivate immediately.

  • adamwathan
    Adam Wathan (@adamwathan) reported

    @LupinityLabs @pfrazee @andrewosh I wish GitHub had an "inbox" where I could see what issues/PRs are awaiting triage, and accept the ones that are valid, and ignore the ones that aren't. Currently, everything is "valid by default", and I have to waste emotional energy crafting responses to people wasting my time.

    Title: I work on code search at GitHub – what needs to improve? 💬: I think the main problem would be the problem of not being able to search for a string or a string in a code. The problem would be a poor understanding of what the data structures are and what they are…

    @Frenck @github @home_assistant How does this work if someone edits the issue? Do they see the template again or whatever markdown it generates?

  • adamwathan
    Adam Wathan (@adamwathan) reported

    @LupinityLabs @pfrazee @andrewosh That's only because of GitHub's public nature and how issues stay open until I actively close them. Using HEY for my email for example, once I read an email I don't have to archive it, it's gone from my inbox unless I've marked it as "reply later". I see this as the same idea.

  • otikik
    Enrique García (@otikik) reported

    @JnBrymn I always get half a second of anxiety when using the top-left search box "is it going to search over the whole GitHub? Oh ok just this repo". I don't know how I would fix that but I would rather not have that half a second of anxiety there.

    So, @GCPcloud has this issue tracker where you can ask/beg/grovel for basic improvements to the product. My favorite part, aside from the fact that most of the requests I follow are >3 years old, is how I constantly get "+1" emails. I'm so glad Google didn't buy @GitHub.

    While I don't think the issue list and board/projects on #GitHub are as good as on #GitLab the existence of a CLI client for basic interaction made me switch. Never got time to work on the CLI I started, ... so pivoting. $ gh gbraad/personal issue list -l "urgent"
