    @Crypto_Jargon India just ordered GitHub to wipe BitChat in three hours because people used it after the government cut mobile internet. The app has no servers, no phone numbers, and runs only on Bluetooth. That’s the entire problem. When a state can’t switch something off, it tries to delete the code instead.

    I ended up taking a different path. I went through the same “SSH into a VM from my phone” phase, but eventually realized the problem wasn’t the infrastructure it was the interface. Today my workflow is almost entirely GitHub-native: Create issues, Prioritize work, Review PRs, Leave feedback An orchestrator watches projects, assigns work, spawns coding/review agents, responds to my comments, and merges when everything checks out. The biggest unlock wasn’t moving Claude Code to a server.

    Well this is frustrating. @claudeai Opus 5 produced a complete client TDD/SOW from superseded local files after silently failing to access the GitHub source I'd pointed it at. Asked directly whether GitHub confirmed its analysis, it led with "Yes, it's reinforced" — answering from local files. It later conceded the disclosure was "subordinated to a confident yes." A tool failure was absorbed into confident output with no signal in the artifact. Only caught on manual review. Not a behavior I've seen from prior Opus versions, Fable 5, Sonnet, or GPT-5.5/5.6. This is the sort of thing that impacts my work in a material way, and requires that I avoid using a product entirely. Opus 5 smarter than Fable 5? No. Also, ask me if I have this problem with locally hosted GLM 5.2.... Nope... Dang it!! I was REALLY REALLY excited about the next release of Opus. Opus 4.8 been a VERY dependable workhorse of a model for me.

    4/ Read that again: the repo owner is a did:key, not an org GitHub can suspend. There is no Microsoft subsidiary to serve. No "comply in 3 hours" inbox. No jurisdiction to point a notice at. "Take it down" stops being a request anyone can fulfill.

    @TheCryptoKazi 9/ WHAT I LIKE MOST The biggest positives for me were: • Real development • Active GitHub • Strong documentation • A genuine problem being solved • Good positioning within the Robinhood Chain ecosystem • AI agent infrastructure rather than hype alone That's what gave me enough conviction to open a position.

    launching Openrepo replace github[.]com with code[.]freecodefund[.]xyz in any repo URL and get an instant full vscode dev environment in your browser. code-server with claude code and codex already installed pay through x402 protocol: - 0.6 USDC for 30 min - 1.20 USDC per hour - 2.40 USDC for 2 hours. no subscription. no annoying account creation needed just a wallet + some USDC runs on remote secure sandboxes run github-login in terminal to auth if you need to push code

    Yesterday i wrote: Opus 5 won't improve your results. Your workflow will. So here's step one. Ponytail, the plugin that stops Claude from overengineering. 88k GitHub stars, most of them in the last two weeks. Claude's default habit: you ask for a button, you get a framework. Extra files, extra libraries, extra abstractions. Every extra line is a future bug and a bigger token bill. Brutal if you're a non-coder shipping products through Claude. Ponytail injects one rule: lazy on solutions, not on thinking. It still digs into the task first, then ships the minimum that works. Security checks and error handling stay untouched. The underrated part is /ponytail-audit. Point it at your existing project and it lists everything Claude overbuilt: duplicated logic, dead libraries, bloated files. Then you ask Claude to rebuild those spots minimal. Author claims 54% less code and 20% cheaper across 12 real tasks. His own numbers, so verify on your repo, not his. Install: /plugin marketplace add DietrichGebert/ponytail then /plugin install ponytail@ponytail. Free, MIT, works in Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini. What's the most overengineered thing Claude ever built for you? Mine turned a config parser into three classes.

    Jack might just killed Slack and/or Github. It's both these apps bundled in a local-first desktop app + has AI agents as a first class citizen. Security might be an issue though. Really wondering how this is going to play out long term.

    Indian government cut internet near jantar mantar because of the NEET protests, & protesters just moved to bitchat & kept talking. then someone had the brilliant idea to give github 3 hours to take down the repo. the repo. meanwhile the actual app was sitting on the app store and play store the whole time, fully downloadable, and nobody thought to ask apple or google anything. we attacked the source code of a mesh network that works over bluetooth. that’s like banning the recipe while the restaurant stays open. anyway, can’t wait for the next move. maybe we block chinese models on huggingface, maybe we start sending takedown notices to random repos. surely this is the road to AI supremacy.

    A solo YouTuber named Chris Titus built the open source tool XDA called the best way to fix Windows 11. He gave it away for free. It is called WinUtil. Microsoft Windows 11 puts ads in your Start menu. It puts sponsored apps on a fresh install. It puts a Copilot button in Notepad, Photos, and the Snipping Tool. It runs Recall, which screenshots your screen every few seconds and stores everything in a searchable database. Users renamed the OS Microslop. Microsoft admitted the backlash in March 2026 and promised fewer upsells. Windows 11 Pro costs $199. Fiverr has 24 gigs for Windows optimization starting at $15. WinUtil does it in one PowerShell command for free. Microsoft ships the bloat. Fiverr sellers charge to remove it. WinUtil removes it for you. Here is how it works. You open PowerShell as admin. You paste one line. A window opens. You click checkboxes for the things you want gone. Disable telemetry. Disable Microsoft Copilot. Uninstall OneDrive. Remove Cortana. Disable Bing in Start menu. Remove Edge. Disable Recall. Tabs: Install, Tweaks, Config, Updates, MicroWin. Tools: winget for bulk app installs, MicroWin to build a custom stripped Windows 11 ISO, restore points before every change, presets from Minimal to Desktop. Works on Windows 10 and 11. Fully local. Zero cloud. Zero telemetry sent home. Chris Titus is a YouTuber with hundreds of thousands of subscribers on his Windows and Linux channel. He open sourced WinUtil in April 2022 under MIT. He wrote 733 of the commits himself. Version 26.07.22 shipped yesterday. 147 people have contributed. 58,777 stars on GitHub. 3,411 forks. 44 releases. Microsoft can't shut this down. The MIT license does not permit that. The Fiverr sellers can't shut this down. They do not employ any of its maintainers. Microsoft built a tool to advertise to you. Fiverr built a marketplace to charge you to turn it off. Chris Titus built a tool that turns it off for free. (Link in the comments)

  • the_vc_intern
    VC Intern (@the_vc_intern) reported

    Andrew Ng’s previous open-source project made AI models interchangeable. AI Suite gives developers one interface for OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini and other providers. Switching models can be as simple as changing a name in the code. The project now has more than 15,000 GitHub stars. OpenWorker began inside AI Suite. Ng has now separated it into a complete AI coworker built around the same idea. Ask it to prepare a customer brief and it can search your files, Gmail, Slack and HubSpot, assemble the information and return a finished document. Ask it to fix your calendar and it can identify conflicts, propose changes and wait for permission before editing anything. It can create spreadsheets and web pages, respond when mentioned in Slack and run recurring tasks such as morning briefs or weekly reports. More than 25 integrations are included, with MCP support for adding others. Users bring their own model key. OpenWorker can run on GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Kimi, Qwen and several other providers. If one becomes cheaper or better next month, the model can be changed without rebuilding the agent’s integrations and workflows. Ollama allows the model itself to run locally. The agent loop, conversations and credentials live on the user’s computer. Data leaves through the model providers and external tools the user selects. Its permission system separates preparing work from committing an action. Sending a message, modifying a calendar or executing a command requires approval. Scheduled tasks place those decisions in an inbox until the user returns. The repository is MIT-licensed, allowing startups to fork the complete coworker and build specialized versions for sales, recruiting, finance or legal work. That changes what an AI-coworker company can defend. Model access alone is insufficient when users can supply and replace the model themselves. The durable value has to come from workflows, reliability, permissions, compliance and distribution. AI Suite made the model call portable. OpenWorker is trying to make the coworker portable around it. The model can change. The work it has learned to perform does not have to.

    @IndianTechGuide you can pull a github repo. you can't pull a bluetooth mesh. bitchat relays phone-to-phone with no server and no company to hand the order to, and open-source code just gets mirrored the moment a takedown lists the urls. blocking the listing isn't blocking the protocol.

    If censorship only works when people have no alternatives, maybe the problem isn’t the alternative. Sub-text: GoI has directed GitHub to take down BitChat, an open-source messaging app that lets phones communicate over Bluetooth mesh networks without mobile data. #CJPProtest

    radicle vs gitlawb — same idea, different era 🧵 1/ *** without github. that’s the dream both projects are chasing. but radicle built it for humans in 2021. gitlawb is building it for agents in 2026. different problem, different stack. let’s break it down 👇

    Someone just dropped six claimed solutions to open Erdős problems on GitHub after five days with GPT-5.6 Sol. Shouqiao **** tried around 13 problems. Some Codex runs lasted 32 hours. He published the proofs, prompts and code, and says two already have Lean formalizations. They still need independent checking. Who exactly is supposed to review all of this if the next model can produce it even faster?

    THIS CLAUDE + OBSIDIAN SYSTEM SHOWS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENS WHEN 30+ SAVED GITHUB REPOS STOP BEING A FOLDER AND START BECOMING A LIVING PORTFOLIO most people collect repos faster than they can remember why they saved them, where they used them, or whether three different folders are solving the same problem new clone → read-only scan → personal note → usage trace → four audits → portfolio verdict 30 repos, two folders, four cross-repo passes, one shared memory file updated every 12 hours loop 1 reads the README, package files, upstream commits, imports, configs, and scripts, then assigns one of four statuses: in-use, shelved, duplicate, or unclear loop 2 catches tools unused for 30+ days, groups real duplicates, flags dependencies quiet for 120+ days, and retries failed checks twice before sending them to human review bookmark this and watch it run, then read the article below to see why a README tells you what a tool does while this system remembers why it still belongs in your stack
