  @byteHumi A big part of major code maintainers leaving GitHub is due to lowered quality of PRs it's a more generalized problem though, wondering if a threshold PR quality to qualify as contribution needs to be the norm.

  AgentOps Security (@AgentOpsSec) reported 5 minutes ago

  Your agent calls an MCP server, gets handed broad filesystem access, pipes secrets into a prompt, and runs shell commands. GitHub never sees any of that. It can't. That's runtime, not code.

  10-year-old from China was solving LeetCode problems while his class was playing games - a year later his GitHub was found by a recruiter from Singapore. Jarvis for $20 a month, a room at home, zero courses. He worked through every problem with AI - not copying solutions, but understanding how they work. 847 problems in a year, a rating higher than 78% of students after two years of university. The recruiter messaged his parents - a Singapore startup wants to pay him $3,000 a month for part-time code review. The parents replied that he is still in elementary school. The startup offered to wait 8 years. Google pays Junior engineers $180,000 a year after 6 months of prep - he's already ready at 10 and still can't accept the offer because he doesn't have 18.

  @AbhiCodes15 AI-powered product should be harder to achieve that, why would I pay for your tool likely using an API I can get for cheaper; the exact question people are asking to MS right now about GitHub Copilot changes. Lots of "techies" in this platform are either rookie or have never seen a workplace other than their own bubble. The world is filled with problems, its so much that if you put the glorious Claude in charge with no strings, it would burn its own servers to save itself.

  An AI that detects bugs in your live app, writes the code to fix them, opens a pull request on GitHub, and sends you a Slack message — all while you sleep. This is not sci-fi. It's running right now.

  Most data portfolios are too technical and too vague at the same time. Too technical: → Three GitHub repos with complex models → No context. No business framing. → Hiring manager has no idea what problem you solved. Too vague: → "Built a dashboard to track KPIs" → Which KPIs? For who? What changed because of it? The portfolio that works shows: Problem → approach → result → impact. Not the code. The thinking behind the code. If a hiring manager has to guess why your project matters, you've already lost them.

  I though that damage to github's reputation is being blown out of proportion. Except now I when I am having weird issues with branches, commits and PR's. I not only have to consider the coding agent, IDE, my prompts, but also whether github is having weird issues again.

  .@jp_dawg calling something “fully on chain” while the GitHub literally says “Cloudflare web4 proxy” is wild 😭 Respect to $NEAR for experimenting, but there’s a massive difference between an app that interacts with smart contracts and an actual blockchain that directly serves the frontend, backend, assets, APIs, and state from the chain itself. $ICP canisters are the server. No AWS. No traditional hosting. No Web2 bandaids. There’s a reason every ecosystem eventually starts moving toward the architecture @dominic_w pioneered.

  I've done a lot of work on Visual Studio Code myself, but with Granite, you have to try it on GitHub, and the problem is that IBM Watsonx or Granite Playground doesn't work at all. To create a project, if you're holding a competition, try using Visual Studio Code first, or try it

  Me to GPT5.5 medium: "Using sub-agents, review the GitHub issue, implement the necessary code according to the plan, then create a PR back to main." GPT5.5 medium: "Clean. I've implemented the necessary code according to the plan EXACTLY as you described." Does anyone else experience this literalness sometimes?

  this is the most expensive GitHub repo Udemy will read this year. 4,000 free programming books. 2,000 free courses. 43 languages. 387,000 stars. And somehow it's still the best-kept secret in self-taught engineering. It's called free-programming-books. Here's why every paid education platform should be panicking right now. Bootcamps charge $15,000 to teach you what's already sitting in this repo for free. Udemy charges $200 per course for content the original authors put on this list themselves. Coursera locks Stanford lectures behind a paywall while the same professors uploaded their full syllabus into this repo two years ago. The whole industry was built on you not knowing the index existed. → 4,000+ free books across every language from Python and Rust down to assembly, COBOL, and quantum computing → 2,000+ free courses from Harvard, MIT, Stanford, freeCodeCamp, and current Google engineers → Translated into 43 spoken languages so it isn't English-only gatekept → Interactive playgrounds, podcasts, screencasts, problem sets, and cheatsheets all in the same tree → 2,000+ contributors maintaining it, administered by a US non-profit that takes zero ad revenue Now read this part slowly. Every coding course you've ever bought was a wrapper around publicly available material. The instructor didn't write the textbook. They read it, repackaged it, and charged you for the convenience of not finding it yourself. The entire $20 billion online coding education industry exists because the foundation was already free. Bootcamps. Subscription platforms. $5,000 "career accelerators." Every tier you've ever paid for was an apology for nobody telling you the source material has been sitting on GitHub since 2011. free-programming-books fixed that. The math on every paid coding curriculum just changed. Free education at zero markup isn't a discount. It's you no longer paying for the platform's middleman fee. Stack Overflow had the answer in 2011. Someone forked it to GitHub. 14 years later it has 387K stars and quietly outranks almost every product ever shipped on the platform. Udemy was the self-taught dev's default. That sentence is now in the past tense. CC BY 4.0. 100% Opensource.

That was a pain in the ***. when building for 32-bit targets, the cc crate was leaking target CFLAGS into the host compilation tools, throwing a bunch of x86-64 instruction set errors *-* ​fixed it by keeping the environment clean, vendoring the cc crate locally, and applying a custom .diff patch to force proper target-specific flags prioritization. ​huge shoutout to the termux maintainers for the guidance on the patching strategy. ​it’s live and ready to use. just run: `pkg update && pkg install ty` ​test it out with your neovim/vim/helix setups and let me know how it handles 🔥

  Those numbers look tidy, but they’re modest. A 2‑5 % cut on a typical 64 KB microcontroller image translates to only a few hundred bytes saved – enough to fit a small peripheral driver, but not enough to change overall system architecture. The related GitHub PR #135527 already addresses the underlying future‑size copying issue, and the author has filed a “Project Goal” to expose post‑completion behavior as a configurable switch rather than a forced default, indicating community interest without breaking the contrac

  Whedon's headline: "a major breakthrough in LLM intelligence." What they benchmarked: RULER 128K at 95% (long-context retrieval, frontier-tier). MRCR v2 at 65.9% (below Opus). SWE-Bench Verified at 81.8%. Tied with Opus, but Verified runs scoped GitHub issues, not real codebases. What they didn't benchmark: MMLU-Pro, GPQA, ARC-AGI, MATH, IFEval. The intelligence suite every frontier lab publishes. They tested their architecture's strength on long-context retrieval and prefill speed, picked one scoped coding eval where they tied with Opus, and called the bundle an intelligence breakthrough. Different claim than the headline. Early access is live. Technical post out. But "third-party verified" doesn't name the third party. No paper, no weights, no independent replication. Reflection-70B had inference endpoints too. Its scores didn't reproduce. VentureBeat covered it. TechCrunch, Bloomberg, the Information didn't. The press is waiting for someone to run the benchmarks. I'm waiting too.

  Microsoft killed Gaming Copilot 14 months after launch. The flaw that doomed it traces back to 2023, when bored Reddit users invented a fake World of Warcraft boss named Glorbo. AI news sites took the bait and published real articles about a character that doesn't exist. Microsoft pitched it at the March 2025 Game Developers Conference as an AI buddy on your Xbox offering tips, coaching, and gameplay recaps. Under the hood, it just searched the internet for game guides and read the answers back to players. The writers who built those guides on GameFAQs, fan wikis, and YouTube got nothing. No credit, no traffic, no revenue. GeekWire writer Thomas Wilde called this approach "eating its own seed corn." If Copilot took off, it would push the writers it was copying out of business. No new guides means no fresh content for the AI to copy. The well runs dry. The prank had already exposed the flaw. Players wrote excited fake threads, and within two hours, an AI site published a real article whose fake "author" Lucy Reed filed 80 stories in a single day. Anyone could feed in nonsense; the system treated it as news. Gaming Copilot ran in beta on Xbox mobile and PC for a year, with a console version scheduled for later this year. Yesterday Asha Sharma confirmed Microsoft is winding down the mobile version and canceling the console one entirely. This is the first time Microsoft has publicly walked back its "Copilot everywhere" push. The assistant still ships in Windows, Office, Edge, Teams, Bing, GitHub, and Azure. All workplace products. The consumer-facing version was the first to die. What replaces it is quieter. AutoSR, a tool using AI to make lower-quality game graphics look sharper. Better game suggestions inside the Xbox storefront. The model works invisibly in the background. The financial pressure made the call easier. Xbox hardware revenue dropped 33% last quarter. Gaming revenue fell from $5.7 billion to $5.3 billion year over year. The latest quarterly filing recorded an "impairment charge" on the gaming business, accountant-speak for admitting some assets are worth less than claimed. Revenue has declined in four of the past six quarters. Sharma also brought four CoreAI executives onto her team. Jared Palmer for engineering. Tim Allen for design. Jonathan McKay for growth. Evan Chaki for internal tooling. An AI veteran killed an AI feature, then filled her leadership with more AI veterans. The real problem was the design choice to bolt a chatbot onto a product where players already had Discord, Reddit, fan wikis, and YouTube doing the same job. The lesson reaches beyond Xbox. Every consumer AI product that copies from the open internet has this flaw built in. Kill the source, and the model has nothing left to learn from. Glorbo was a warning. Microsoft acted on it three years late.

  @FreeCADNews @A_V_Tech I couldn’t find the github, and the forum posts that are related aren’t exactly the same issue I am having. I am trying to do drilling operations, and from what I understand I just need to select the edge of the hole. Is my hole not complete with that vertex in there? It says the feature cannot be recognized as a hole. Drilling is inherently a 2.5 D operation, why can’t I select a vertex for a drilling operation? Sorry if these are dumb newbie questions

  Feels weird to go from the "use shiny new thing" guy in the pre-agentic-coding era to the "use boring tech guy" when it comes to agents. Building some crazy **** with just GitHub actions running claude. Don't need a PaaS or some service to run my agents etc. Biggest problem I have is that the Venn diagram of GH availability and Claude availability is uh...problematic. Other than that, this system works like a charm.

  Grok Connectors quick rundown. xAI shipped native app connections. OAuth your Gmail, Calendar, Drive, GitHub, Notion, Slack, Linear, Microsoft directly into Grok. MCP for custom servers. Grok starts using your tools. Live data, scoped permissions, revoke anytime. Useful patterns: "summarize yesterday across email, calendar, notion" "open github issues assigned to me" "calendar this week, flag conflicts" "draft a reply to the last slack from x" The MCP side lets you plug Grok into any server speaking the protocol. Custom internal tools, your own infra.
