  • Workwithpython Avez khan🎋 (@Workwithpython) reported

    @manuel_frigerio I think what recruiters look for, is the consistency to solve the problems. And GITHUB does the job.✨✨ What do you think ? 🤔

  • shahafdan Shahaf (@shahafdan) reported

    Of course @github pulled up some “sub module error” bs on me a second before the due time 🙄

  • denibertovic Deni Bertovic (@denibertovic) reported

    @SusanPotter Regarding your point about Github. Yeah I hear you. Things like this make me very uneasy about critical stuff being hosted there. Large OSS projects should really just run their own Gitlab (or something). What would happen if nixpkgs got taken down?

  • MrHicugi Mag (@MrHicugi) reported

    Couple issue with @nuxt_js v3.2.2: 1. vite-builder naming confusing, seems like from Vite, but it's from nuxt... 2. Repository link to GitHub goes to main nuxt page which is 2.x version, even though it should be 3.x? 3. How to contribute if it isn't exist in GitHub?

  • WorksOnMyLocal Max (@WorksOnMyLocal) reported

    @TheLoveDuckie Yeah terrible take. I have like 4 GitHub accounts that will never see the light of day 🥲

  • SusanPotter susanpotter.net/social/mastodon (@SusanPotter) reported

    @ChShersh @locallycompact @github I was directly questioning the GitHub reliance in your suggestion. If that is worked around (it can be) I don't think grouping in one org is a problem as long as there are at least mirrors in Gitlab (self-hosted or otherwise) and other locations. GitHub-only is a liability.

  • EnderAgent Craigory Coppola (@EnderAgent) reported

    Anyone got any cool automation hacks for maintaining open source repos on @github? I'm trying out a tool to lock closed issues after a certain period of inactivity, and really feel like I should be leaning more on automation for stuff like that. #opensource

  • Bobjob96 Bobjob (@Bobjob96) reported

    maybe I'll just do that and put it up on github bc it's. really not hard at all unless there's some major problem that I'm missing. There was literally a guy on ycombinator a couple weeks ago getting venture capital for that ****

  • vponamariov Victor (@vponamariov) reported

    2. What if I don't use github, but I use gitlab or any other systems? 3. What if I work only in private repositories? 4. What If I have my own github server or something like that 5. What if I simply know a lot, but for some reasonI don't have commits?

  • Johns3n Johns3n (@Johns3n) reported

    @manuel_frigerio I’m a senior dev and my GitHub looks like this because it’s a good indication that that I keep my free time and work separated. Also because they are super easy to fake! Just fix random spelling errors in README files and you have alot of greens!

  • nanayaw_codes Yaw Codes (@nanayaw_codes) reported

    Unpopular opinion: A lot of repositories on most GitHub profiles are tutorials and forked projects. Reproducing the code would be a problem. Go for it

  • OmDeshkar3 Om Deshkar (@OmDeshkar3) reported

    45/100 #100DaysOfCode Revised my OG java notes. Js~ coursera exercise. will start loops tomorrow, Html-tables mdn docs, I checked out Gsoc orgs GitHub man those issues..way out of my league for now let's see after few months

  • whospay_intern 獨眼莫蒂 | Whospay Intern (@whospay_intern) reported

    So Andre wrote down his research while going thru the projects' Github repositories. He focused on problems they were trying to solve vs what was actually being built. 99% of the time, the claims were garbage. But the remaining 1% is why he stayed in the industry.

  • fforw fforw (@fforw) reported

    @bitandbang @manuel_frigerio Really bad take. Even if I were to judge someone solely on their Github record, I'll take someone slowly producing high quality commits with good commit messages over some busy bee half-wit who produces "Fixed X" commits that are just as likely to break stuff than fix it.

  • bitbrain 〽️ɪɢᴜᴇʟ - working on #cave ⛏️ (@bitbrain) reported

    Looks like #Beehave is broken with #Godot rc5 due to some strange behaviour where = null gets inserted into .tscn files, causing sudden node duplication etc. We will report the issue on Github.

  • jakublala Jakub Lála (@jakublala) reported

    i feel like i am no longer writing any code. it's either prompting GitHub Copilot with comments, or pasting error messages into ChatGPT.

  • devabmantis Abílio Costa (@devabmantis) reported

    @RunBikeBbq @_CalvinAllen People also include old jobs on their CV, even tough they haven't worked on them in the last year. Same thing: you could have great projects in your github profile, despite not working on them in the last year.

  • SusanPotter susanpotter.net/social/mastodon (@SusanPotter) reported

    @ChShersh @locallycompact @github There is no GitHub hate, just reality because these incidents (account/org blocks without warning) do happen as provided above. This isn't a fictitious problem.

  • Exadra37 Paulo Renato (@Exadra37) reported

    @manuel_frigerio People have lives after work. Plus some companies deploy their own *** server. If you are measuring seniority by a github graphic then you don't understand nothing and should never be in a hiring position.

  • waltertamboer Walter (@waltertamboer) reported

    @kirill_shevch @manuel_frigerio Exactly. Most probably because the more experience you'll gain, the more you'll learn that it's not worth it to spend so much time on non-relevant issues in life. Here's the choice: 1) spend time on some github project. 2) spend time with my kids.

  • adriangb01 Adrian (@adriangb01) reported

    @tiangolo @samuel_colvin @github Can you re-open via API and then convert to discussion via API? It'd be quite a bit of email noise I suppose, even if you filtered to issues with only 1-2 subscribers.

  • ljayham Jessy (@ljayham) reported

    @RunBikeBbq @_CalvinAllen But the application form *explicitly* requires a Github link? Also, from the original thread, the OP there seems to literally have no idea that one can opt out of showing contribution stats in private repos... It is just a terrible take

  • debo_rar Débora (@debo_rar) reported

    @manuel_frigerio What kind of company uses personal GitHub accounts for corporate repos? Even if that was the case most of those graphs only show the public contributions and lots of companies use other services for repos. That is better than filling your account with terrible code everyday

  • iotambat Devendra •ᴗ• (@iotambat) reported from Minato-ku, Tokyo Prefecture

    @Van_Caroline @manuel_frigerio @theJ6S THIS that and most companies issue company github accounts on company laptops *specifically* for their employees so not to use their personal github acc bc that introduces sooooo many opsec issues

  • ChrishanJay Chrishan R Jayakody (@ChrishanJay) reported

    @Oshila123 @manuel_frigerio Why do people think GitHub is the only *** server available? 95% of my code is pushed to Bitbucket.

  • locallycompact Daniel Firth - Inspector GADT (@locallycompact) reported

    @ChShersh @SusanPotter @github I really think this is minor. There are two things here which slow things down. Once is noticing and applying the fix which can be done by anyone, the other is bugging the author to accept it so it can be published. Noticing and applying the fixes for 300 packages only requires

  • peeteco Peter Hansen (@peeteco) reported from Brighton and Hove, England

    @yaustar @DGoodayle On top of that, GitHub's stats show number of commits, which is not the same as quality or impact of those changes Someone may have spent 2 days working on a cryptic bug and fix it in single commit

  • adriangb01 Adrian (@adriangb01) reported

    @tiangolo @samuel_colvin @github Maybe do a trial run? Run 10 issues first, then 25, 50, 100, etc. With some time in between for people to complain. Kinda like a staged rollout.

  • sgzmd Roman Kirillov (@sgzmd) reported

    Bit the bullet and subscribed to @github CoPilot; now contemplating if it is actually faster to write the code by hands or debug subtle but hard to find errors in AI generated boilerplate.

  • shawncrigger Shawn Crigger (@shawncrigger) reported

    @TAbrodi @manuel_frigerio In the last 10 yrs, I've signed NDAs & have 10-15 GitHub accts. @github doesn't offer mass repo delete, making it hard to delete 18+ yrs' worth of software dev & my job title at mySiteone, which I excelled at for 2 yrs 10 months, I had a medical issue that hospitalized me for 7ds
