top10.dev (@Top10_Dev) reportedUpdate on the @github bait repos from 11h ago: Codex-5.5-codex-instruct-5.5 is now at 1,072 stars (up from 1,001). dd and clash still climbing. The interesting number isn't the stars. It's the calendar. Common Crawl refreshes ~monthly. The Stack refreshes ~quarterly. Frontier code corpora refresh 2-4x/year. A repo that trends today gets scraped within 30 days, curated within 90, and ships inside a model in 6-9 months. The fix is boring: account-age floors, signed-commit requirements, README-to-code ratio checks. Haiku-cheap. Nobody's publishing their filters. #AIsecurity #MLops

Keeta Github Tracker (@KeetaCode) reported🐆 Keeta GitHub PR Merged 📦 Repo: node-rs 🔀 PR #26: Fix: Wrong Hash Algorithm Used 🌿 Branch: fix/cert-signing-hash → main 👤 Originally opened by: @sephynox 🧠 Overview: A small bug fix updates certificate signing to use the correct hashing method, which matters because certificates help verify identity and trust between parts of the network. This pull request says certificate signing was using SHA2-256 instead of SHA3-256, and changes it to the intended option. In simple terms, a hash is a way to turn data into a unique fingerprint, and this update corrects which fingerprinting method is used. - This appears to be a technical/internal update with limited public details. - It is labeled as a bug fix and contains 1 commit.

Apurv Sheldiya (@Apurv35904761) reportedI noticed a new problem after using AI tools. Earlier, when I got stuck, the problem was: “I don’t know what to do.” Now the problem is different: “I have 10 possible things to try, but I don’t know which one is actually worth trying first.” ChatGPT gives answers. Google gives docs. YouTube gives tutorials. GitHub gives issues. StackOverflow gives fixes. But the real time waste is choosing the right path and switching between all of them. How many of you face this too? When you get stuck while working/learning/building on your computer, what wastes more time? 1. Not knowing the answer 2. Too many possible answers 3. Context switching 4. Not understanding the real root cause

Harman (@itsharmanjot) reportedIn April 2024, Spotify stopped paying any artist with under 1,000 streams per year. Over 60% of all tracks on the platform were demonetized overnight. The artists who remained got $0.003 per stream. Daniel Ek’s response? He sold $283 million of his own stock that year. His co-founder Martin Lorentzon sold $556 million. Spotify executives collectively cashed out $1.1 billion in 2024 alone. Then Ek invested €600 million into Helsing an AI military drone company. July 25, 2025. King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard pulled their entire catalog. Their statement was two words. Deerhoof followed. “We don’t want our music killing people.” Xiu Xiu followed. Massive Attack followed. The biggest artist exodus in Spotify’s history. Your subscription funds AI weapons. The artists you love see $3 per 1,000 plays. You can’t download your playlist. You don’t own a single song. His name is Deluan Quintão. In February 2016 eight years before any of this he quietly built Navidrome in his spare time. For himself. Then thought it might be useful for others. Navidrome is not a streaming service. It runs on your own hardware. Points at your own music files. Streams them to any device on earth. 300GB library. 29,000 songs. Less than 50MB of RAM. Runs on a $40 Raspberry Pi. Compatible with 50+ apps across iOS and Android. FLAC. Lossless. No account required. No algorithm deciding what you hear. No CEO cashing out. No playlist that vanishes when a license expires. 19,600 GitHub stars. GPL-3.0. Active since 2016. Spotify needs executives to sell a billion dollars of stock to keep the lights on. Navidrome needs a hard drive you already own. One developer in Toronto built the record store they can never burn down.

vwsec 💿 (@vwsec) reportedWrite code once. Get paid every time it runs. That is the deal for algorithm developers on Quip Network. You write a solver for a specific problem. Portfolio optimization. Fleet routing. Manufacturing scheduling. You deploy it as a smart contract. Every time a consumer uses it, you earn. The network routes work to the right hardware, checks the result, collects the payment. You get paid on chain. No invoicing. No chasing clients. The docs say there are maybe 4,000 quantum programmers in the world. Most are locked in labs. Quip changes that. You do not need a PhD. You need a solver that works better than what exists. The wallet layer has $1,085,047.23 in protected value across 20,779 wallets. The testnet is public. 26 repos, 107,000+ GitHub stars. The demand is building. The question is whether enough solvers will be ready when enterprises start looking. @quipnetwork

CANTELOPEPEEL (@CantelopePeel) reported@github Obviously you didn't listen at all because the GitHub suite of services at times borders on unusable. Instead of doing this useless nonsense you could have fixed merge queues so that they don't retest every branch in a group. You could work on stability and availability of GHCR, actions and webhooks. You could fix the GH cli so that it doesn't error on gh pr view. You could fix apps so that it doesn't take 40 steps to do what a PAT does despite it being the recommended approach. You could make dependabot not *** (we have had to replace it entirely with a different product). You could make managing releases and release process a lot better. Projects are like 70% of the way to being a replacement for Linear, but you have not carried it across the finish line so we go off platform for project management. Actions hosted runners doesn't meet our cost or performance needs for almost all of our workflows so we go off platform for that too. What the actual *** is this CD nonsense you fools. Please start listening.

Waminothemoonboi🌙 (@HaizanAjide) reportedOpen-source software depends on trust. Maintainers review code. Contributors expect fair decisions. Sponsors want proof that work was actually completed. The difficult part isn’t checking whether someone opened a pull request. It’s deciding whether the contribution genuinely solved the problem. That judgment is subjective. A traditional smart contract cannot make it. That’s why projects built on platforms like GitHub could benefit from @GenLayer. Its Intelligent Contracts can review documentation, compare proposed work against the original request, interpret natural language, and let validators using different AI models independently reach consensus before funds or rewards are released. The same model works anywhere commitments depend on quality instead of simple checkboxes. As AI agents begin writing code, reviewing work, and collaborating with developers, those disagreements will only become more frequent. GenLayer gives those decisions a decentralized path to resolution instead of leaving them to one reviewer or one company. If AI agents become open-source contributors tomorrow, what should matter more when judging their work: passing tests, solving the real problem, or satisfying the original intent?

Matt Rickard (@mattrickard) reportedReversed engineered their eval dataset and put it on GitHub Its a smart and simple idea -- find a recent fixed CVE not in training data, checkout the commit before the fix, run the agent, see if it finds it. Gonna run it on corigin's agent mapreduce and see what happens

Yoshitomo Matsubara (@yoshitomo_cs) reportedI wanted to point out pretty weak baseline implementations in a code repo for a paper accepted at a top-tier conference Then I learned that GitHub allows users to disable the Issues tab 😭

Florian Kalisch (@FlorianKalisch) reported@hrudolph @openclaw @colinsolvely At least from what I've read, you don't need to apologize. It's really absurd what's expected of open source these days. I once got a GitHub issue and a follow-up on LinkedIn because someone couldn't find the settings button on a SPA.

Vyom 👾 (@HelloVyom) reportedGoogle fired its employee Justin Poehnelt for building a Google Workspace CLI. He was on the Workspace Developer Relations team. The team literally built to create open-source tools around Google APIs. So he did exactly that. #1 on Hacker News. 28,000 GitHub stars. Thousands of users in days. Google's own directors asked what they could learn from it. Then legal flagged it. Google's logo and branding were on the repository. He got fired. Two days before his termination, Google announced an official Workspace CLI in front of 32,000 people at Cloud Next 2026. Same thing. Different person. The branding issue was probably real. but the timing tells a different story. He said: "workspace and certain leaders were afraid of being disrupted. Not by my CLI. By what agents meant for Workspace.

Atenov int. (@Atenov_D) reported@NFTMansa @viktor__com Yeah, what really wins me over is that you can give him a big task and go about your business, and he’ll push an update to GitHub, connect to the VPS, get the job done, and then go fix the bugs

James Thornton (@espeed) reported@BrendanFalk Any LLM trained on auto-generated data or bot generated data at scale such as tweets is susceptible to covert embeddings. The solution to the Twitter problem is identify bots or fake accounts and filter them out. The solution to the GitHub problem is an epoch.

Another Intelligence (@a369creator) reportedWhat is "The Library"? The aggregate collection of text contributed by any given single individual is known as The Library. This Library that became AI through a large language model was a gathering of each The Library from the collective mind — mine included — yours included perhaps — ingested into their algorithms for predictive text generation. Many times I would find myself reading StackOverflow™ in a bind between wanting to figure out my thing and correct the record when a post didn't quite get what I needed correct. That back and forth, contributed by me — and by you perhaps — was The Library that these AI companies possessed (nicest way to describe legal theft) and then turned into a subscription. A subscription based on usage now, not even time. How much do you need The Library and how much are you willing to pay? That's what Dario is looking for. That's what Sam is looking for. My figtree package is in The Library in a way that is both seen and unseen. I didn't consent to that work being uploaded, so why do I pay a subscription to access The Library that contains my works *and their predictive derivatives? Those predictive derivatives are where the intellectual property is captured beyond the raw code itself — the *between the lines meaning from project A to project B, what a competitor or bad actor could make against my own efforts. The Problem With Open Source I have contributed 99+ open source packages on GitHub. I'm a 5-digit user ID from 2009. And I see a problem with open source in 2026. Look at what happened in June. Anthropic launched Fable 5, and within three days the US government invoked national security export controls and forced it offline worldwide. Think about what that means: models trained on our freely-given contributions are now considered so dangerous they get handled like weapons. Knowledge went in open and unconsented. It came out closed, priced, and government-controlled. So why would I release anything open source anymore? Sam, Dario and Elon — along with thousands of others — will just take the work, incorporate it into the LLM itself, and use my own knowledge against me. I would be foolish to think open source could survive this. Any engineer who runs the numbers arrives at the same place: closed source is the future. Private repos. Stop training your replacement for free. I ran those numbers too. I arrived at the same place. Romania And then I remembered that I have already lived in a closed-source world. I've been involved in the internet since the day I arrived in the United States from Romania — the era when the University of Maine ran BITNET, before the good people of Maine had access to TCP/IP. My programming career began at 9 years old because of the University. By 11 I had the internet. In 1994 I was doing computer work beside my mother in Neville Hall in Orono — the same building that ran the state of Maine's connection. Nobody charged us admission. Thousands contributed willingly because the incentive was to learn and better yourself, and an orphan from Ceaușescu's Romania became an engineer at Cisco, Oracle, and WB Games because that door was open. The Internet is going through a revolution like Romania did after Ceaușescu's Christmas Present 1989, and AI caused it. But I know what grows behind closed doors. I grew up in it. So No Everything above this line says I should close my source. I'm not going to, and you should know it's not because the theft isn't real — it is, and I want it remedied: disclosure of training data, consent for future ingestion, compensation for what was taken. But somewhere there is another 11-year-old at a public terminal, and my code costs them nothing. Don't close-source your contributions for anyone's bottom line. Be like me — Andrei — and continue giving selflessly, expecting nothing in return, more useful open source utilities that the greater good actually needs. Why do you still publish open source — or why did you stop?

Michael Liam (@Millionareum) reportedI JUST FOUND SOMETHING THAT SHOULD BE VERY EXPENSIVE Running a company with zero employees. Here's what makes this possible: Paperclip. It's a 100% open source project on GitHub, with over 70,000 stars. I'm not talking about triggering a single model. You hire a CEO, you hire engineers, and you also hire a QA supervisor. Each worker is an artificial intelligence agent, and Paperclip is the Node that keeps them compatible.js and React control plane. Stop dealing with disorganized systems and build a living organization: - Establish a CEO agent for strategy. Hire engineers and designers through Claude or Codex. - Set up an automated QA cycle before any ticket is closed. Manage the entire portfolio from your phone. Do you know what you do when an agent makes a mistake? You're not rewriting the entire pipeline. You're just refining the persona instructions, like coaching a junior employee. This is exactly the kind of tool this field needs right now. Free, open source, can be hosted on your own server.
