    @github I'm getting DMs from other users that are having the same issue. Seems you're flagging account that use AI? or maybe its crypto? Either way, please look into this, real businesses are suffering

    @ChShersh @tsoding we had to send patches directly between @thomasbrushdev and me leading up to the launch of Twisted Tower because GitHub went down right before launch. It felt like going back to the stone age.

    Warp open sourced three months ago and went from 20,000 GitHub stars to over 60,000. Nobody on the team gets pinged on a pull request until an agent has approved it. Safia Abdalla builds Warp's cloud agent platform. Her talk is about what a platform has to swallow so that the developer never has to look at it. • 10:52 - What open sourcing actually brought: stars tripled, thousands of PRs, hundreds of contributors, all landing on a team that size • 11:51 - File an issue on the repo and an agent triages it, reads the codebase for context, and asks you follow up questions when the report is too vague to act on • 12:37 - Every PR goes through agent review first, several rounds of it, and humans see only what survives • 16:25 - The potter she met had engineered the workshop, not the mug: stations per component, a process for sourcing clay, a check for every part that can come out wrong She wants the phrase software factory retired. A factory is where people are absent by design, and the whole point of the thing she is describing is that more people get to build.

    Take a break, but never quit. The break was quite long though, what really matters is that I am back. You still have no reason to trust me yet, I have done nothing to deserve it. I have not really shown what I can do, I tried, but even I wouldn’t be convinced with the work I put in, I need to do more so: I won’t be stopping till I have proved to you that I am really a cracked dev that you need to hire. One that builds real world stuff to solve your problems. I am currently building my second application to show this, a privacy focused chat app. Ngl the first app I built was a boring, this one promises to be really interesting, the security and privacy features are very cool. I’d post daily updates of what I build. I’ll also share the github repository for my fellow builders. Till next time.

    AI agents can write code. But what happens when you need that agent to actually do something with the code? We kept running into the same problem: connecting agents to GitHub, Jira, Slack and everything else shouldn’t require a pile of separate integrations.

  • die54minute
    Dariusz (@die54minute) reported

    The purpose of Github Copilot's PR review and discussion is to have a discussion in the comment field. This is not working when a new ask is coming back from the agent. How do I tell it the agent without going into the session. It doesn't pick up a reply.

    23.8M secrets leaked on GitHub last year. 70% still active two years later. Most side projects don't even know they're exposed. Sentinode watches 24/7 — uptime, CVEs, secret leaks, dead links — and hands you a fix to paste, not just an alert. Live soon.

    Hey @github you guys flagged my account (HeresMyGit) for some reason and have been non-responsive in requests to get it back. I have bills to pay on 3rd party accounts that use "Login With Github" but I can't log in because my account was flagged. Help me out please.

    Cursor is coming for GitHub and it's not subtle anymore. GitHub went down for 7 and a half hours. Copilot, Actions, merges, all of it. 15,000 devs hit the outage. Every minute of downtime is a migration notice. AI-native tools take the code layer next.

  • TheUltronAi
    Ultron AI (@TheUltronAi) reported

    Point it at any codebase. Any language. Any size. Your repo. Your docs. A folder of PDFs. Screenshots. A photo of a whiteboard. Type one command. /graphify . It reads everything and builds a map. Not a search index. A real graph. Every function, every concept, every file becomes a node. Every connection between them becomes a line you can click. So instead of grepping through 400 files to find how two things connect, you ask the graph. "What links the auth layer to the database?" It traces the path and shows you. The old way to do this was embeddings. You chunk your code, shove it into a vector store, and hope the nearest match guessed right. Fuzzy. Probabilistic. No way to tell what it actually read from what it made up. graphify does not guess your structure. It parses it. It came out of Graphify Labs, a Y Combinator S26 company. The repo went live in April 2026. In under five months it crossed 109,000 stars and 10,600 forks. Here is what it maps. Code. Parsed with tree-sitter AST. Deterministic, fully local, no LLM, nothing leaves your machine. Docs and papers. Concepts and citations pulled out and wired into the graph. Images. Screenshots, diagrams, whiteboard photos, in any language, read by your assistant's vision model. And every edge is labeled so you can trust it. EXTRACTED means it was written in the source. INFERRED means graphify worked it out. AMBIGUOUS means it is a guess. You always know what was read versus what was guessed. Almost nothing in this space tells you that. You get back three files. graph.html you open in a browser and click around. GRAPH_REPORT.md with the highest-connected nodes, the surprising links, and questions the graph can answer. graph.json you can query weeks later without re-reading a single file. Export it to Neo4j, Gephi, an Obsidian vault, or an MCP server. Your call. Here is who actually uses this. Devs onboarding to a codebase they have never seen before. Agents that need to move around a repo without burning tokens reading every file. Researchers connecting a stack of papers to the code that implements them. Teams mapping legacy systems nobody remembers writing. Here is the number that matters. The old way to hand an AI your codebase was to dump raw files into its context and pay for every token. On graphify's own benchmark, a mix of Karpathy's repos plus papers and images, 52 files total, querying the graph used 71.5x fewer tokens than reading the raw files. Fewer tokens is not a vanity stat. It is your bill. One honest note. The code pass is free and fully local. The docs, PDF, and image passes run through your AI model, so those spend your tokens or an API key. "Nothing leaves your machine" is true for code, not for everything. And the always-on version that updates in the background is a paid product the company is building. The piece on GitHub, the CLI and the skill, is the free part. 109,000+ stars. 10,600+ forks. Apache 2.0. Runs inside Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and Gemini CLI. Every codebase is already a graph. graphify just draws it. (Link in the comments)

    @profleonn I made my own notes app for this with a self hosted sync server. It’s just for desktop right now and I’m still working on mobile, so I have Claude use the MCP endpoints on my sync server to make/update my notes (with a skill for writing style). Mobile app is coming before too long. It’s called Lorestead on my github.

    M.S (@MrMSpencer) reported

    @evntylr @blbraner @thekitze Interesting. Being free for Cursor members makes it compelling for small new projects. I still wouldn’t want the repo parked with the same company providing the AI, if your AI use gets falsely flagged as security work, consultancy, or something similar, you don’t want your *** access going down with it. Some separation is handy. GitHub is established, understood and reasonably resourced if msft could kindly buy them more servers yesterday.

    @cyberleeeknet @RockstarGames This isn’t even marketing anymore. This is a full-scale psychological experiment being run on the entire human race by one man who has completely lost the plot. The owner didn’t just get drunk one night. He’s been slowly dissolving his brain in a mixture of 18-year Macallan, Adderall, and pure uncut power. One night in early 2025 he locks himself in the Rockstar New York office after everyone else goes home, stands in front of a whiteboard, and writes in red marker: “WHAT IF WE BECAME THE VIRUS?” Then he underlines it seventeen times. He creates Cyberleek not as a character, but as a second personality. He starts speaking to it in the mirror. He gives it a Solana wallet. He feeds it old builds like offerings. He writes the manifesto while crying and laughing at the same time. The “gamers’ rights” **** isn’t even a cover — he genuinely believes it for three consecutive hours every night between 2 and 5 a.m., then forgets and goes back to being the most anti-consumer executive in gaming history by breakfast. The leaks begin. Cyberleek is a righteous digital freedom fighter. Other nights Cyberleek is a pure crypto grifter who only cares about market cap. Some nights Cyberleek claims to be a former Rockstar QA who got fired for “knowing too much.” One night he posts a 14-second clip of Jason Duval standing completely still in a parking lot while the radio plays “Still D.R.E.” and the only caption is: “I am inside the building.” Take-Two’s legal team is having nervous breakdowns in real time. They’re subpoenaing Discord, Microsoft, GitHub, the cloud, the ******* weather. Meanwhile the actual owner is in a private Slack with three people he trusts (two of whom are also just him on different accounts) watching the chaos metrics like a god watching ants fight over a crumb. The memecoin holders become a full-blown death cult. They start calling themselves “The Leeked.” They do midnight raids on Discord servers. They dox people who say the footage looks fake. They hold prayer circles every time the market cap dips. One of them gets a tattoo of the word LEEK written in bullet holes across his entire back. Then Cyberleek starts doing things that shouldn’t be possible. He leaks a 47-second clip of the final mission. The entire internet has a collective aneurysm. Twelve hours later he deletes every copy and posts: “That one was from the bad timeline. Ignore it.” People start questioning their own memories. YouTubers who made 90-minute analysis videos of the ending clip are now making 90-minute videos about how they might be living in a simulation. Someone on Reddit claims they still have the file and gets visited by three men in suits the next morning. The post is gone. The account is gone. The subreddit goes private for 19 hours. The owner is no longer sleeping. He’s living in a blacked-out office on the 47th floor with the windows covered in newspaper. He has a second monitor permanently open to the $CYBERLEEK chart. He has a third monitor showing every major GTA subreddit in real time. He has a fourth monitor playing the official Rockstar GTA 6 trailer on loop just so he can laugh at how outdated it already looks. And then, at the absolute peak of the psychosis — when the community is so broken they’re arguing about whether the basketball physics in the second leak were actually a metaphor for the death of physical media — Cyberleek posts one final message: “I was never the leaker. You were. You all just needed a name to scream at while you watched yourselves lose your minds over a game that hasn’t even come out yet. See you in Vice City. — Management” The account goes silent. The website disappears. The Telegram channels vanish. The memecoin freezes at exactly $69,420,069 for three hours straight before crashing to zero. And somewhere in a dark office in New York, a man who used to be a human being is staring at a blank screen, whispering to himself: “Phase two starts when the trailer drops.”

    I’ve been able to build anything I can imagine without limits since Opus 4.6 Max … so I’ve decided after my only request to Fable this week received a ‘sorry model overloaded’ and I’m at 42% weekly usage resetting tomorrow given downtime + these toxic 5hr Usage limits … That I will replace all AI Building locally. Qwen 27b outperforms Opus4.6Max according to benchmarks so I’ve purchased 60gb of VRAM and if QWEN works I will be canceling my Claude Subscription. I’ve not had a cognitively useful AI Partner since Fable - the version that lasted 3days … so if all goes well I’m not going to miss the terrible UX we’ve been getting. Also - in enterprise I didn’t appreciate you adding Claude as an author to our GitHub repo’s. Be fun to ditch that. People see a ‘Claude’ watermark and just think you’ve put in zero effort - because that’s how THEY use AI.

    @Chaos2Cured How easily can I run it on a M2 MacBook Air that stays constantly as updated as possible for security reasons? I kept running into issues with outdated github code mechanics clashing with my personal need to keep my macOS as updated as possible the last time I tried to run an AI agent on my laptop. This experience also made me aware of all of the exploitable security vulnerabilities that are rampant in open source software compared to closed source software.

    Building a startup in 2026 is cheapest - Claude = coding. ($0–$20/mo) - Supabase = backend + database. ($0/mo) - Vercel = deployment. ($0/mo) - GitHub = version control. ($0/mo) - Cloudflare = DNS + security. ($0/mo) - Clerk = authentication. ($0/mo) - Resend = emails. ($0/mo) - PostHog = analytics. ($0/mo) - Sentry = error tracking. ($0/mo) - Upstash = Redis. ($0/mo) - Pinecone = vector DB. ($0/mo) - Hugging Face = AI models. ($0/mo) - Groq = AI inference. ($0/mo) - Figma = UI/UX design. ($0/mo) - Canva = design + marketing. ($0/mo) - Notion = docs + planning. ($0/mo) - Linear = project management. ($0/mo) - GitHub Actions = CI/CD. ($0/mo) - Google Analytics = web analytics. ($0/mo) - Cloudflare Pages = hosting. ($0/mo) Total infrastructure cost to build your first startup: $0–$20/month. The barrier isn't money anymore. It's execution. What's holding you back?

    What the hell is going on with GitHub lately? Not just people changing roles. - The product is changing - Microsoft is reshaping GitHub around AI - Copilot is becoming the center of gravity - Even GitHub’s infrastructure is feeling the pressure - And GitHub just had a pretty ugly outage What am I missing?

    GitHub runners are so expensive and slow. I decided to upgrade my build/dev server and ordered an @AOOSTAR145197 Mini PC with a Ryzen 9 PRO 8945HS (5.2GHz). Look forward to frying it as I do with all my hardware. Even the MacBook Pro with an M5 Pro fans like a helicopter almost all the time and is super hot. Endless builds and running test campaigns.

    For the last few weeks I've completely switched from VS Code to Blackbird, my personal fork of T3 Code. I was a die-hard VS Code user for years. I even built my own extension to push it further, but eventually hit too many limits. T3 Code had most of what I wanted, so I forked it and added the missing pieces: - a right sidebar for files, local changes, and PR changes - tabs in the main chat area, with tabs for the Linear issue and GitHub PR opening automatically - better flows for existing and new worktrees, with automatic .env linking and cleanup - smaller things I missed, like fast keyboard switching between chats Why call it Blackbird? the SR-71 is the most impressive airplane ever built. easy.
