    Can you imagine opening a github issue instead of like complaining at a city council meeting or whatever. Also imagine getting like 50 million downvotes on <insert controversial bill>. The more I think about this the more fun it sounds

  • z_oleg Oleg Zhurakousky (it/its) (@z_oleg) reported

    @vitaliykulikov Yeah, some type of configuration problem StreamBridge is provided by the framework, so not having it tells me something out of wack. Best you can do is push something to GitHub so I can take a look

  • abhaybharti A B (@abhaybharti) reported

    We can have #vscode VS Code across machine having same plugin/extension and settings. Crtl+P and Type ">Sync Setting" & enter login credentials (Microsoft or github account). Enjoy same plugin/extension/setting across your machine.

    🪣 Docker registry It's a stateless server-side application to store Docker images where the images can be pulled/pushed (as GitHub for repositories). It can be public or private. Docker Hub is a public Docker registry.

  • securingdev Keith Hoodlet (@securingdev) reported

    @jp4gs @github If you read further down the thread, you'll see that GitHub worked exactly as intended here. Someone forked a repo, made a change, and opened a pull request. Nothing was actually merged into any of the popular repos, the account was locked, and the PRs were closed.

  • tymwol Timothy Wolodzko (@tymwol) reported

    Too many lines of code? @github: no problem, I'll hide it from code review. Too many comments under code review? @github: no problem, I'll hide them as well for you. WTF @github?!

  • xplynx xplynx (@xplynx) reported

    @CryptoMellany 1/2 The rootcause is prob a widespread malware attack on Github by adds to npm scripts, docker images, install docs and so on. Most of these commits seem to be innocuous, with messages such as "bump version to". The attack will send the entire ENV app, to the attacker's server

  • wilterrero Wilmer Terrero 🚀 (@wilterrero) reported

    @oliverjumpertz Especially with the rise of open source today there is an open source alternative to any problem My trick to not reinvent the wheel: Google "x problem npm" Google "x problem open source" Google "x problem github"

  • consolexyz xyz (@consolexyz) reported

    @henryekpeha So assuming you made a contract and push to github this attack sends the entire .env file to the attacker server

  • vsnthdev Vasanth Srivatsa (@vsnthdev) reported

    @AndrewRedUK For some projects, I have GitHub Actions setup to monitor and alert me via email if the service goes down

  • Abt_Benjamin ʙᴇɴ ᴀʙᴛ 🇺🇦 (@Abt_Benjamin) reported

    @stephenlacy @github is there any communication by @github? I can only see a huge number of repositories are down/locked/not available anymore => 404.

  • Shajith_it_is Shajith (@Shajith_it_is) reported

    @pushkaraj2007 GitHub pages is mostly my first choice Had few problems with heroku, so switched to Netlify recently and I love it.

  • beau_antonio Sung Jin Woo (@beau_antonio) reported

    @stephenlacy @github @beyondprotocol1 down significantly from recent launch due to social engineering attack & botched unlock of 1/4 of tokens. Price is bottomed & should 10x due to mainnet & top 3 exchange listings. SOL type of growth. Solid fundamentals & long term play #crypto #cryptocurrency

  • ohhsayan Sayan (@ohhsayan) reported

    @stephenlacy @github The open ability for anyone on GitHub to impersonate any account they like by just changing the commit e-mail is a terrible hole (and GH rendering the profile image only makes it worse). GPG signing is critical at this point, and this only proves it more.

  • MilkLand13 JS $PREY (@MilkLand13) reported

    @ShiLLin_ViLLian correction...looks like its a github issue, this is way bigger than sol. Not good.

  • BmoHarryman BmoHarryman (@BmoHarryman) reported

    @EdemGold1 I want to learn more about NLPs, do you have anything on Github I could look at? Watson breaks down into a 'generator' and drivers and it's not very clear-cut for source code.

  • c3rb3ru5d3d53c ςεяβεяμs - мαℓωαяε яεsεαяςнεя (@c3rb3ru5d3d53c) reported

    @cyb3rops @github I was sleeping when this all happened, anyone has one of the payloads from the server?

  • since2009btc Since2009 (@since2009btc) reported

    @NitrousBGC @stephenlacy @github such scary bro. wiping all would be the best way, or at least try to track down connections going on during those events

  • Wjrgo Joachim Wagner (@Wjrgo) reported

    @NitrousBGC @stephenlacy @github Write down your product keys, wipe all storage and install from scratch.

  • thor_bux Thorsten Bux #webar #mixr (@thor_bux) reported

    @DolphinSoftco @kalwalt could potentially support. But please use GitHub issues for these things

  • CoderElegant Roy Mu 💙💛 (@CoderElegant) reported

    @kaiblaschke @stephenlacy @github The FOSS world is chasing contribution efficiency too much. IIRC, many years ago, a FOSS community may review a patch again and again even for years. It doesn't need to be so slow, but nor too fast.

  • altonpowers Adam Alton (@altonpowers) reported

    @TwitchiH @github If a repo has a GH Action set up to run tests on PRs, and that Action uses a GH secret. If I create a clone of that repo, add some malicious code that grabs the secret & posts it to my server, & I open a PR to merge that to the original repo, will the GH Action run my code?

  • MarmiteJunction Andrew F (@MarmiteJunction) reported

    Dear #rails hivemind I need to configure an env variable in GitHub actions with the URL of its test server... Any idea what this value might be?

  • whatimafter_ tragically offbeat (@whatimafter_) reported

    every1 goin rly hard 4 tht github non-issue

  • Ashnft11 K4sh.eth || Royal Families ENS collector (@Ashnft11) reported

    @ethernaz OS Is down, SOL prob is done .. and GitHub is under attack. Need a break

  • bibbs123 tanner ☄️🦆 (@bibbs123) reported

    github's rival company creating millions of github repos with horrible but runnable code to train copilot to be terrible

  • StevePixelFace StevePixelFace (@StevePixelFace) reported

    @theLudovyc Oh, I thought there was issues with using get_vector, something to do with deadzones. Pretty sure I read it on the GitHub for the docs at some point so I just avoid it.

  • MaroneMarina Marina Marone (@MaroneMarina) reported

    Googled an error message and found the perfect question on GitHub… ✨ I was the one asking it more than one year ago and nobody answered 🤡

  • OpenBSD_src OpenBSD src Changes (@OpenBSD_src) reported

    nicm@ modified usr.bin/tmux/window-copy.c: Do not crash when searching for .* with extremely long lines. Reported by Torbjorn Lonnemark, GitHub issue 3272.

  • EricaToelle Erica Toelle (@EricaToelle) reported

    @thilograf Thank you! Please submit these on the GitHub page if you can! You can actually do that for any Microsoft documentation if you think there is an error. Just sign in and submit a bug at the bottom of the page
