  • ltsCuzzo Alan | (💙,🧡) Space Monkey (@ltsCuzzo) reported

    Argh. Auditing a codebase with 0 unit tests, no GitHub repo, the contract doesn't even compile when received, every fix I suggest introduces more bugs cause no testing, can't even suggest testing because dev doesn't know how to use Hardhat or Foundry. Why do I do dis to myself.

  • brandonXYZW Brandon (@brandonXYZW) reported

    @phuctm97 That’s a good point. GitHub/Microsoft gets feee RLHF training while developers get free fixes. However I think it *may* take longer than 2 years for it to attempt to fix complicated repos. I think a lot of infrastructure and improvements still would need to be made.

  • dobroslav_dev Dobroslav Radosavljevič 🍕 (@dobroslav_dev) reported

    @tjerkienator GitHub was broken for a few mins today, not my fault! 👀

  • teej_m TJ (@teej_m) reported

    @mtkonczal @ryxcommar The amount of code published to GitHub per year won’t go down for the next 20+ years. I think we’ll be okay.

  • TechWithHim TechWithHim (@TechWithHim) reported

    @github is down!

  • Its_TanmayB Tanmay Bhosale (@Its_TanmayB) reported

    @alexschnebel Yup seems like it was just a problem on GitHub's site. It up and running now.

  • ITStudiosi 🏴‍☠️🇪🇺🖤David Gil de Gómez (@ITStudiosi) reported

    @voidspace There was a known issue today with *** operations, check github status

  • Lluis_Revilla Lluís Revilla Sancho (@Lluis_Revilla) reported

    @joey_stan Please, read the documentation of the function of the help. It will help you in the short and long run. In your case instead of the missing arguments you want to update use_github_action("pkgdown"). Github Actions is what you are trying to fix, a service using their machines

  • BillionsJoel Billions.A.Joel (@BillionsJoel) reported

    Didn't even notice GitHub was down since we use Azure DevOps at work. Ugh, currently not a fan of Azure though. #developerproblems #githubdown

  • rcarmo Rui Carmo 📶 (@rcarmo) reported

    Hey @github, why is 2FA with TOTP not working anymore? It’s been days now.

  • yessabhishek Abhishek Choudhury👨🏻‍💻 (@yessabhishek) reported

    @hey_yogini Idk about GitHub but wasn’t able to login to my AWS server few hours back.

  • amannijhawan Aman Nijhawan (@amannijhawan) reported

    @Carnage4Life I tried this too, for the most part it works however sometimes it leads me to links in private github repos which are broken for me, this is so weird, can’t explain how it knows.

  • heyjsx JS (@heyjsx) reported

    @tanyarajhans7 This happened with me today only. I was getting some type error and it relatively gave the same wrong answer. Finally got the answer in GitHub issues section

  • joannaterm Joanna ☮️ ❤️ (@joannaterm) reported

    🌸 I'm probably late to the party but a few days ago GitHub changed its public SSH key and I couldn't push any commands. I followed the official docs but was still running into errors. If you're lost, hope this helps: #CodeNewbies #github 🧵 👇

  • fishingwithzack Zachary Fisher (@fishingwithzack) reported

    @einsley23 No problem. The fix was available on GitHub for a while but I kept thinking I'd have time to make a few more updates before pushing to Cran. Thanks for the nudge.

  • 0xNIC0 Nico (@0xNIC0) reported

    @aeyakovenko @therealchaseeb Can deploy distribution front-ends ya - requiring GitHub login to receive. Much easier to monitor abuses that way etc.

  • AndreaR91659141 Andrea Russo (@AndreaR91659141) reported

    3/ 🚨 Recently, parts of Twitter's source code were leaked online, raising security concerns for the company. Twitter has asked the court to issue a subpoena to GitHub to identify who leaked the information and anyone who downloaded it.

    GitHub is down??😳😳

  • hus_hmd Hussein Al Hammad | حسين آل حماد (@hus_hmd) reported

    @cossssmin Clearly state somewhere what level of support you offer, where they should seek community support, etc. Force the user to choose the type of post (can be done in GitHub issues/discussions templates). Help and give pointers, but don't do their job for them.

  • Chris_L_Ayers Chris Ayers - @chrisayers@hachyderm.io (@Chris_L_Ayers) reported

    @isaacrlevin @github using a workflow to trigger when you make an issue or pr comment? using pages to host your presentation?

  • viibeeng vibe engineer (@viibeeng) reported

    @yearoflinuxx We block a lot of sites on company machines (any email provider outside of our own for one). You could institute that as a policy. But blocking personal GitHub login could be unduly constraining, and difficult.

  • braalex_a Alex A. (@braalex_a) reported

    @CozyTesla GitHub was down?

  • nishit130 Nishit Patel (@nishit130) reported

    @huzaifa_Khila @github It must be microservice but there was some infra issue.

  • pavel_feldman_ Pavel Feldman (@pavel_feldman_) reported

    @debs_obrien @TheWebTester @playwrightweb Does not sound right, could you create a github repo with your test script? Or paste it in a GH issue?

  • DaveNicoll Dave Nicoll (@DaveNicoll) reported

    @gitboardio just tried to sign up using two different github accounts, and both accounts are giving me a Request failed with status code 404 error. Everything working ok?

  • danofer Dan Ofer (@danofer) reported

    @rasbt It was a github outage issue. Fixed now

  • pradumna_saraf Pradumna Saraf (@pradumna_saraf) reported

    💡 GitHub tip: When opening an issue, always try to add supporting documents, if any to validate the points you are trying to convey.

  • bradgessler Brad Gessler (@bradgessler) reported

    We’ll start to see tooling that takes over boring and mundane processes like running `*** bisect` on a code repo to find and fix a bug. I’d love to open a PR on Github with the description of a bug and have an LLM find and fix it. 🧹🐞🧹
