joithan (@jothantranston) reportedTHIS GUY BUILT A TINY AMOLED DESK BOARD JUST TO STARE AT HIS STRIPE NUMBERS it's a Waveshare ESP32-C6 touch panel that sits in your peripheral vision and cycles business metrics so you stop digging through Stripe > same ESP32-C6 board people use for Claude Code token meters, flipped to revenue > eight screens, five seconds each: MRR, new paid, paid subs, cancelled, ARR, ARPU, net 30d, failed > empty screens hide themselves so a young account sees a shorter loop > polls Stripe every five minutes on a read-only key (subscriptions + invoices) > marks itself stale instead of showing a number it can't vouch for > no soldering: flash over USB, finish Wi-Fi + key setup from your phone > data stays on the board; no project server in the middle firmware free on GitHub: cosjef/stripe-desk-display. board ~$30–$36 (Waveshare ESP32-C6-Touch-AMOLED-2.16). chat and terminal can't sit in your eye line for five hours. a tab you have to open is a tab you stop opening. this is what "the numbers find you" looks like as a brick on the desk.

Kevin Minnelli (@minnelli) reportedWTF - Grok Bot can't fire on schedule to save it's life. The scheduled routines are just broken and at best unreliable. I want to love this product. When you set the cron job it doesn't work. It tells you try Cloudflare, sure let's set that up and burn tokens, then that doesn't fire to wake them. Oh, let's try GitHub now and use that....all failed. I had to wake it again this morning before the market opened. Anyone else feeling frustration in this regard?

Rithesh Kumar (@rk625dev) reported@benln Can u integrate grok bot to use the apple keychain password it keeps asking and GitHub plugin is not working
-
kenny (@kennyistyping) reported@0xDmitry it's a database/indexer issue, nothing we can do to help it in Github will be fixed, but it's going to be a few days because the current dev is part time and busy with his day job appreciate the offer though! is what it is and I'm not actually stressing, just thinking about what could be with a bit more resources

Lummox (@Lummox_eth) reportedMy own built Grok Bot turned $1,000 into $5,300 for last 17 hours. Now the project behind it is sitting around $25K market cap. We already pushed past $60K once and gonna hit $200k soon The bot is still running. The utility is almost ready. GitHub is live. Dev tokens are burned. I’m still buying. Nothing about the actual project changed because the chart went down. At $20K MC, this is the entry I personally like far more than chasing the first move. The target hasn’t changed either. $100K+ is where I want to take this next. $LUM is just getting started.

Benjamin Crozat (@benjamincrozat) reportedFrom now on, I will assume that GitHub is always down and I'd like to be notified when it's briefly not.

Martin Tobias (Pre-Seed VC) (@MartinGTobias) reportedif you know any founders who are winding down, I may have a buyer of their github repos. DMs open.

HDR Game Analysis (@HDRgameAnalysis) reported@FaisalAqdas212 The file Im using is a draft version, you only can get on the RenoDX Discord server. That file I can’t link too. I don’t think there is an official mod on Github yet.
-
Pranavvv👾 (@pranvv27) reportedhonestly, i’m not even mad at this. commit messages are a small thing, but they say a lot about how you work. “fix”, “update”, “changes” might get the job done, but meaningful commits show professionalism, attention to detail, and that you actually care about maintainability. your GitHub is part of your resume. might as well make it look like you know how software is built in a team.

Rusty Williams McMurray (@1RustyMac) reportedPersistent AI doesn’t have a supply chain problem at the model. It has a supply chain problem at the moment it changes its mind. Personality drifts. Tools get installed. Memory accumulates. The thing you shipped on Monday is not the thing answering on Friday. We can attest who built the weights. We still cannot attest who authorized what the agent became on Tuesday. That is the hole. Who is allowed to let it change? We built Living Supply-Chain Security for Persistent AI Organisms around one law: The organism may propose evolution. It may not authorize it. No trace, no drift. If an agent wants a new personality, a new tool, a new maturity, or a rollback — that change does not happen because it felt confident. Confidence is not a key. Self-narration is not evidence. Evidence is not interpretation. Interpretation is not authorization. Authorization has to come from outside the organism, bound to the exact change, used once, and written into an append-only history. Even a rollback cannot erase the record. You can restore a prior state. You cannot pretend the detour never happened. Default-deny. Hash-chained. Externally signed. We froze battery v1 on July 5 and ran it against the paper’s own claims. It held. That is executable evidence. Not a proof. Not a production blessing. Not “alignment, solved.” If it can’t be attacked, it isn’t finished. GitHub later this week. Come try to break it.

Theo - t3.gg (@theo) reported@Nateemerson Ughhhhhhhh There’s an official issue I left comments on in the Claude code GitHub. I’ll see what hacks we can do until then.

Curious Explorer (@PatelVatsalp732) reportedI burned 14B Codex tokens. The official usage UI still cannot tell me what actually ate the weekly cap. So I shipped a Codex-only board: GitHub login, local-first sync, private by default, optional public rank + shipping proof. Roast the metric or join it.

Jason Sawyer (@foilmanhacks) reportedThere's a huge problem in InfoSec education: it’s way too course and tool focused. Instead of teaching the underlying methodologies and how to discover or invent, we feed people the latest "OSINT" slop script that’s been shat onto GitHub. OSINT isn’t about using scripts or services. It’s about understanding how they work, and being able to create your own.

recovering buzzkill (@MikeStillAwake) reported@Karai_Dan @SteamDeckHQ Agenda or not nexus mods is a terrible outdated model for distributing mods. GitHub would be a superior host.

Rituraj (@RituWithAI) reported🚨 Someone built the complete playbook for running frontier AI models on consumer GPUs at home. Not a tutorial. Not a YouTube video. A production-grade serving stack with measured benchmarks, working configs, and battle-tested recipes — for RTX 3090 owners who want real performance. It's called club-3090. And the numbers it delivers should not be possible on consumer hardware. 127 tokens per second. Qwen3.6-27B. Two RTX 3090s. 262K context window. Vision. Tool calling. At home. Here's what's actually inside. Two serving routes — pick based on what your workload breaks on. vLLM dual: maximum throughput. 89-127 TPS on code tasks. 4 concurrent streams at 262K context. Full feature stack — vision, tools, speculative decoding, streaming. This is the path if speed matters. llama.cpp single: maximum robustness. Full 200K context on one 3090. No prefill cliffs. 25K-token tool returns work correctly. 91K needle ladder passes. ~51-60 TPS — slower than dual, but doesn't crash on real-world agentic workloads. Both routes ship as validated Docker Compose configs. Drop-in OpenAI-compatible API on localhost:8020. Your Claude Code, Cursor, or any OpenAI-compatible client connects immediately. Here's the model support that makes this practical. Qwen3.6-27B — production ready. Works on 1 or 2 cards. vLLM, llama.cpp, ik_llama. Up to 262K context. Gemma 4 31B — production ready. Vision, tools, up to 106-141 TPS on dual cards. Qwen3.6 35B-A3B MoE — production ready. 103-149 TPS single card. 178 TPS dual. Here's the wildest part. The terminal UI. c3 is a lazydocker-style cockpit that wraps discovery, serving, and operations in one keyboard-driven interface. Browse the model catalog, serve a variant with Enter, watch live GPU stats, run health checks — all without touching the CLI. Here's why this is different from just installing Ollama. Ollama gets you running. club-3090 gets you benchmarked, stress-tested, and production-hardened. Every config ships with a verified TPS measurement. The bench script runs 3 warmup + 5 measured passes. The stress test catches the specific prefill cliff that Ollama silently fails on at long contexts. When your agent starts doing 25K-token tool calls at 3am and something crashes — club-3090 already found that failure mode and documented the workaround. One command to start. Your RTX 3090 just became a frontier AI inference server. Apache 2.0 License. 100% Open Source. GitHub link in the comments 👇

Straggler Liu | AI & Semis (@StragglerLiu) reportedNVIDIA($NVDA ) Is Paying $14B for a Company With $150M Revenue. That's Not Financial Logic — It's Ecosystem Control. NVIDIA is in advanced talks to acquire Hugging Face for ~$14 billion ($12.9B acquisition + $1B retention), per Bloomberg. To put that in perspective: Hugging Face does ~$150M in annual revenue. That's ~86x revenue. Microsoft paid ~1.6x revenue for GitHub. Google paid ~3.5x revenue for DeepMind. NVIDIA is paying 20-50x more on a revenue multiple basis. The premium is not for revenue. It's for control of the AI developer ecosystem. What is NVIDIA buying? Hugging Face hosts 500,000+ models, 250,000+ datasets, and serves millions of developers. It is the single most important distribution channel for open-source AI. If you build AI, you use Hugging Face. That makes it the front door to AI development. Why NVIDIA is paying this premium: 1. The "NVIDIA triple lock." NVIDIA's hardware lead (GPU) is real. Its software lead (CUDA) is a moat. But the third lock — the developer workflow — was missing. Hugging Face is that workflow. Developers discover models on Hugging Face, deploy them, and optimize them. Whoever controls that discovery layer controls which hardware gets used. 2. The GitHub analogy, inverted. When Microsoft bought GitHub, developers were already using GitHub. Microsoft didn't need to capture them — it needed to prevent Amazon/Google from doing so. NVIDIA faces the opposite problem: developers are already using NVIDIA hardware. But they're discovering and deploying models through a neutral platform. NVIDIA is eliminating that neutrality. 3. The long game: inference, not training. NVIDIA dominates training. But inference is the bigger TAM — and it's more fragmented. If NVIDIA controls the model discovery and deployment layer, it can steer inference workloads to its own stack. That's a 10-year strategy disguised as a 14-billion-dollar acquisition. Who wins, who loses: NVIDIA (NVDA): Acquires the developer distribution layer. The most important strategic move since CUDA. Shifts the valuation case from "chip cycle" to "platform economics." Competitors (AMD, INTC): Lose neutral access to the primary AI model distribution channel. This is a structural headwind that no amount of hardware catch-up can fix. Cloud providers (MSFT, AMZN, GOOGL): Hugging Face was a neutral hub. If NVIDIA controls it, cloud providers risk being disintermediated from AI workload decisions. The open-source community: The platform that was built on openness is now owned by the dominant hardware vendor. Neutrality is the first casualty. The capital question: Can NVIDIA integrate Hugging Face without destroying its community value? If yes, the $14B is cheap. If no, it's a very expensive mistake. The answer will define whether NVIDIA becomes the AWS of AI — or just another hardware company with an expensive acquisition. Note: Acquisition details based on Bloomberg reporting; not confirmed by NVIDIA or Hugging Face. Revenue multiple comparisons based on publicly reported figures.

Coder Junkie (@CoderJunkie) reportedBelNet Android v1.4.1 now has a public shipping checkpoint. GitHub evidence: released Sep 1 verified commit d23f155 four downloadable assets Android API level 36 revamped design latency and performance fixes that is more meaningful than a repository “updated” label. a tag identifies the version. artifacts give users something to install. but “fixed latency issues” still needs a measurement surface: median connection time p95 latency packet loss failure rate region and device breakdown release notes tell us what changed. benchmarks tell us how much it changed. BelNet shipped. now let the numbers login. @BeldexCoin #Beldex #BelNet

Frank van Puffelen (@puf) reported@_davideast Noice! From the GitHub page, this covers all of Auth, Firestore, Realtime Database, Storage, Messaging, and Firebase AI Logic. 👏 Where is data persisted (if at all)? Also: JS only, I assume? (sorry if that's all in the repo too, GitHub just went down on me)

Harsha Kotcherlakota (@DPortkey) reportedAwesome Codex non-coding usecase: I had 1-2 TP Link Kasa smart outlets that always ended up falling off the network, and it drove me nuts. I set Codex on it. It found a github library for these devices, carefully examined them on my network and watched them fall off, and told me that even though they look identical, 2 of them were previous generation models that had *slightly* lower total wattage load support. It told me exactly how to tell them apart, and sure enough, that was that. 2 replaced outlets later and my connected devices have bene flawless. Months and months of irritation, gone because of 30 seconds of curiosity. Just try, you never know what you could fix! @victornunez

John Crickett (@johncrickett) reported@Mike_Preston17 I don't think they water them down, why would they when they're competing on having AGI? I don't mind using GitHub actions to run tests and builds against a branch before merge. I don't want it triggering production schedules. Do you list all the things it shouldn't do in the prompt?

∆LΞX∆NDΞR D∆VIS (@_AlexanderDavis) reported@egavrilenko11 @bot I had to update my fine grain token for GitHub and now when it tries to authenticate the plugin, I'm getting the error: GitHub didn't provide a sign-in link My bot said: Known host bug, not you. The GitHub Authenticate button tries OAuth GitHub does not support. Checking whether a PAT on the plugin page is the working path. That's a Grok Bot host bug, still open: cursor/plugins#251. GitHub's connector is PAT-only. The Authenticate button tries OAuth GitHub does not support, so you get "didn't provide a sign-in link." Don't keep hitting it. But it worked before I updated my fine grain token...

Ravi Prasad (@ravikp7) reportedBig NO to Github hosted CI runners for personal projects now. I have setup a self-hosted github CI runner on a spare laptop running ubuntu server. Been running it for 10 days and I did some calculations, for my usage if I run it on Github runners, it'd cost me around 200$ vs < INR 100 on electricity (local setup) monthly.
