GitHub Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • Lucrecious_ Luca (@Lucrecious_) reported

    @cmuratori Just today I was scrolling through github for a simple implementation of RPC for C++, but found myself skipping so many because they were unmaintained for a couple years and I didn't want to deal with any potential issues with their tools or dependencies.

  • cadetCoder H͎i͎k͎a͎r͎u͎ 🇬🇧💙 (@cadetCoder) reported

    ugh! password authentication was deprecated. and now I’m having a problem committing new codes using remote *** to my github repo :( it’s pass my bedtime :( :(

  • somyaoff somya_off (@somyaoff) reported

    alright so i mightve or might not crashed the github cuz boy it loading super slow after i switched pages really really fast in the search of that one *** dissappeared from my bookmarks

  • itsjustfil_ Fil (@itsjustfil_) reported

    Venmo me $10 and I’ll open an issue on your ex’s GitHub repo that says “lol yikes”

  • ladyofcode Tabs (@ladyofcode) reported

    @alegarciy @benawad I don't need to swipe on Tinder when I can swipe through GitHub profiles. Lots of green blocks and you can tell they don't have commitment issues.

  • kataring かたりん (@kataring) reported

    @efekarakus @tafkd Thanks. I don't have any questions at this point. If I find any issues, I'll add them to GitHub issues.

  • nmk4567 Nathan (@nmk4567) reported

    @LinusTech I found FB's blog and github talking about this, and now I'm more confused. Why does a time server need an IMU and barometer? This thing seems like more of a flight computer than a datacenter product. (also now we know FB has been grabbing all the BNO050s and BMP388s)

  • DeviousPanda__ DoviousPlonda (@DeviousPanda__) reported

    @Theedoo3 dissagree - i mean i completely get why its like the way it is - he really does work extremely hard on the github side of the game - but this still causes a disconnect with the majority of the userbase who dont even know what github is or whos issues dont warrant a proper post

  • hubertlepicki Hubert Łępicki 🤍♥️🤍 (@hubertlepicki) reported

    @josevalim @wintermeyer @github Should be taken into consideration with number of open issues, however.

  • tkesgar Ted Kesgar (@tkesgar) reported

    @griko_nibras @NextDNS I haven't, but can DNS do anything on this scenario? It is the HTTP traffic to the CDNs that is being slowed down. The GitHub web pages all load, but the JS/CSS downloads are all stuck.

  • benawad Ben Awad (@benawad) reported

    venmo me $40 and I'll make an issue that says "yikes" on your ex's GitHub repository

  • hmmmjowy 😔 (@hmmmjowy) reported

    ******* hell github removed they old *** login thing today so now i gotta install and configure all this new **** before i can PUSH my ******* WORK and go to bed!!!!

  • benofben Ben Lackey (@benofben) reported

    @mbleigh I'm having a world of pain trying to get firebase init to run with the GitHub options. One rabbit hole was the org causing issues. Now I'm trying it under my user but still so many failures. Googling gives lots of people with similar issues. Feature feels not baked...

  • michaelhazani Michael Hazani (@michaelhazani) reported

    @ObsidianApp @github nothing against obsidian but tbqh I'd rather use SMS whenever I can and avoid additional apps (especially as I currently need three different authenticators to handle various services. Security app bloat is a real issue)

  • scorbuny 🐇 Ala 🛡🏳️‍⚧️❀✿ (@scorbuny) reported

    well time to file a github issue so that nobody else suffers like me ...unless they decide my issue isn't real then ****

  • cvekaso Sasa (@cvekaso) reported

    [DAY415 13.08] 1) Atomic Habits, You Dont Know JS. this & Object Prototypes 2) vitalets/github-trending-repos 3) Pointer Issue #245

  • ernstgnzlz Ernesto González (@ernstgnzlz) reported

    Some people be on Github issues like "X's not working. Help me" without providing a single line of code. Help me help you.

  • derberq Lukasz Gornicki (@derberq) reported

    @fintanr @AsyncAPISpec @github Thanks! In large communities, only automation can help. Only problem for now is that Google Sentiment Analysis is not perfect, also there is no text+emoji analysis, so you can imagine it is pushing some false positives. Still in testing phase. Thinking to switch to MS services

  • somyaoff somya_off (@somyaoff) reported

    i guess i crashed the entire server of github lol

  • HawwttSauce Abhijay Rajvansh (@HawwttSauce) reported

    @khushaliiishahh Mm-hmm thanks a lot! After 2-3 hrs of googling last night & I figured it out, actually GitHub wants us to use a token instead of pass but the problem was in mac the pass are stored in keychain & prompt for it was not showing.. Now I'm good to go!

  • lekrashar Lekrashar🐉 (@lekrashar) reported

    I love spending at least 30 minutes writing and previewing an issue report on github to then be notified my thing was auto-closed because it didn't follow a template. Which wouldn't be a problem for me if I wasn't already late to a party '>..>

  • nhcarrigan Nicholas Carrigan (he/him) (@nhcarrigan) reported

    What does the "good first issue" label on #github mean to you? What criteria do you use to determine when an issue should be given that label on your repositories?

  • KozRoss Koz 'Intersectional Feminist Spectrum Weeb' Ross (@KozRoss) reported

    @SylvieLorxu I wish the documentation Github provides referred to this anywhere. The page I got linked did _not_ refer to this anywhere. I fully understand that this is for security. It is still annoying because it breaks a regular workflow of mine for (personally) a non-issue.

  • FahadoukenNFT Fahadouken NFT (@FahadoukenNFT) reported

    I understand smart contracts and other things are on the horizon, but it's a shame that such an important component of the blockchain ecosystem seems to be lagging so far behind. Flags on github and Twitter are either being ignored, or the problems are too difficult to fix..

  • Gadgetoid Phil Howard (@Gadgetoid) reported

    @ahnlak @virginmedia They probably screw up SSH auth to any service that they explicitly proxy- they must be edge caching GitHub or something so you end up trying to log into the wrong server.

  • Julio07651922 Julio (@Julio07651922) reported

    @RoDoddler Oh, I see! :) Heeey, is github up to date with the latest commit? The server is apparently having some deadlock problem in ProcessOutgoingMessages().

  • villares Alexandre B A Villares☂ (@villares) reported

    @danielscarvalho @github I found all the documentation about GitHub auth very confusing, frustrating for me, a non-specialist. At this point, all my repos on "organisations" are semi-broken on GitHub desktop ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  • MdNabilAhsan Nabil (@MdNabilAhsan) reported

    my github page will finally have a lot of green again but it's just me handing off designs using the Issues feature.

  • sumusiriwardana Sumudu Siriwardana (@sumusiriwardana) reported

    @boketto_yz Oh that's bad. Maybe it's time to work with *** and GitHub. I hope you'll be able to write it again without an issue.

  • TheRealPepman Antonio C. (@TheRealPepman) reported

    GitHub's terrible today. I can't commit. Then I had to delete the repository on my local machine. Then I made a new one, tried to clone, and I can't SMH.
