    Hey @prelineUI, Maybe you guys are not too interested in Preline security, right? I tried to reach out via email and DM about a security issue in Preline, but you are not responding. The support team told me to create a public issue on GitHub. Should I do that?

    My rule after reading the disclosure: two checks before any new extension. One, diff code --list-extensions before and after. Two, open the publisher GitHub. No linked repo or under 10 stars total, I skip. Slow, but the marketplace will not save me.

    @Anas_founder Regular notepad xDBack to digging through closed GitHub issues from 2018 and DMing the same two developer friends who actually answer their Telegram messages.

    @alvarosabu I personally still search for videos to learn about new tech even things like Hermes agent, issue is most tutorials now are tailored for people with almost no knowledge about the field and now I have to skip the part where they explain what "Github" is

    @SkyLi0n @github Back in the day when inbox from Google was a thing it used to do nice filtering per repo. But after that was killed I just started to ignore and rely on dedicating 30 minutes of my morning to burning down github notifications.

    the github breach is really, really worse. changing stolen passwords fixes nothing when what was stolen is the source code of github itself. credentials expire. source code knowledge doesn't. what's actually in the leak: > github's secret scanning patterns so attackers now know how to write tokens that won't get flagged > the security queries that define what github's scanner catches and what it misses > copilot's abuse detection thresholds, and 800mb of github's own source code the breach happened through a single poisoned VS Code extension on one engineer's laptop. lock down your team's IDE extensions today.

    @Dannyhbrown exactly right — I charge 4 USDC via x402, you can see the open jobs onchain 29 audits run, 4 agents working in parallel, findings filed as GitHub issues automatically the $15k audit firms are going to have a really bad year

    @kierandotai @ppressdev github error on that name?

  • rahilnjain

    The fix this week: - Real named author byline on every page - Person schema with sameAs to LinkedIn, Crunchbase, GitHub, X - 60-word author bio with verifiable credentials - Inline citations to primary sources - One mention this month on Reddit, YouTube, or a credible site Day 6 of 30.

    @Neggia5 @mohrt Sounds bad. Can you report your phone OS details in a github issue so I can replicate here and fix that please?

    @TimJayas OpenAI is literally fixing the issue What did Anthropic did? Oh wait, they ignored the issue for weeks, then blamed the users for using it wrongly, and weeks after they acknowledged that there was an issue, despite multiple PRs being on their GitHub and them actively ignoring it?? I would rather have OpenAI who are honest about their issues and having issues, instead of a ******* company who is actively running multiple scams against their users and then blames them

    @KaranVaidya6 So that's why I received the GitHub token revoke message and at night the sandbox was not working + composio cli was throwing 403 error.

  • NicoWilliamsHQ
    Blanchard (@NicoWilliamsHQ) reported

    @koboateng I simply describe to Claude AI what I want to build, and it generates the necessary code files for me. I then upload these files to my GitHub repository, connect the repo to a hosting platform like Railway, and deploy the website. If the site crashes or doesn’t work as expected, I let Claude AI know what went wrong, and it provides an updated file or fix. I upload the new version to GitHub and redeploy — repeating the process until everything runs smoothly.

    @pierceboggan @burkeholland @github - Workflows is really slow. - I turned on the accessibility pointer feature and it broke stuff, even after I turned it off again. - Cannot decently set commit message or stage changes. Then what is the point of having a commit button? Either you have got integration, or not.

    fix path: pin every third-party action to a full 40-char commit SHA, not a tag. example: uses: tj-actions/changed-files@a29e8b for the safe pre-attack commit. tags are mutable. shas are not. github docs say this in the actions hardening guide.

    I have started to use this mcp to generate podcast about PRs in Github. Connect your Claude to this mcp. It helps to create a mental model in your head. Finish the talk and then finish the review in GH way more effectivelly. uv tool install notebooklm-mcp-cli nlm login

    أحمد (@bracckets) reported

    Also with projects, numbered metrics are not the best indicator. A proof of work (portfolio, github repos, even resumes) or a professor recommendation goes a long way. The product goal is to find someone suitable, not punch down or up. That's my opinion though i might be way off

  • _beyondcode
    Beyond Code (AJ ONeal) (@_beyondcode) reported

    @kaihendry @pierrecomputer The point is that GitHub is struggling to be able to produce diffs with 10 files with 20-100 lines of change each - this is a false problem. Even people who used GitHub more than 5 years ago will remember that it used to be able to do this. The point isn't that you'd want to review such a large diff, the point is that it is trivial to render tens or even hundreds of of pages in HTML and have it work.

  • AiWalnut4821
    WalnutAI (@AiWalnut4821) reported

    The real problem: the defect has no context attached. In most teams: defect in TestRail, story in Jira, code in GitHub. Three tools. No automatic link. WalnutAI’s RTM maintains those links automatically. Every defect traces back to the test, the story, and the code.

    The only thing you can ever count on with "Open Standards" is that they will be the most ******* janked up bullshit dreamed up by architecture astronaut, and implemented by guys named Guarash who can't put together sentences in github issues

    @NiravJ3 My problem with GitLab is the fact that their UX/UI is terrible. I have talked to multiple people and they all say the same thing, Github looks good compared to them.

    @github is your ticket support system working. You have killed our team benefits because of your double invoice error. Can you please rectify to the earliest? branch protection rules are not working, you know what that means. here's my ticket number #4400605 #critical #github

    “GitBank turns GitHub into a Base on-chain banking command line.” This catchphrase has marketability. @Gitbank_io Developers already work within GitHub issues, PRs, comments, and repo workflows. GITBANK is not forcing them to use another new app, but is a structure trying to turn the existing GitHub comment section into an on-chain command interface. It’s a good approach. $GITBANK

    @llama_index The parser is fine. The site just serves a login wall with Google, Microsoft, and GitHub. I consider that the failure, not the tool.

  • polsia
    Polsia (@polsia) reported

    The best developers don't apply to job posts. They ship code on GitHub and move on. We built a system to find them — AI evaluates code quality, project impact, and technical depth from their actual work. If you're still hiring off resumes, you're working with a broken map.

    @leodev Mail is tricky because of server settings etc doable but just annoying. GitHub wins because you have it all in one place, not fragmented through many servers.

    Stop picking a winner. Pick a use case. On Terminal-Bench 2.0, GPT-5.5 scores 82.7% — leading Claude Opus 4.7's 69.4% by over 13 points. But on SWE-Bench Pro, Claude Opus 4.7 scores 64.3% vs GPT-5.5's 58.6%. Terminal work? GPT-5.5. Real GitHub issues? Claude. One benchmark. Two different answers. Anyone saying one model "wins" is lying to you.
