Dmitriy Kovalenko (@neogoose_btw) reportedI actually don't think that *** is great. It was designed for reviewing patches by mail which is actually still a way better experience than github. It implies a few problems: 1) your patches need to small 2) there is no built-in relation between commits (stacking patches = sending several emails in RE) when you do a pull request with 12 commits you do absolute bs according to original design 3) there is no seamless way to stack 2 branches on top of each other without mutating the state 4) there is no way to mutate arbitary commit in the history (don't try to tell me about fixup!) - *** was designed to send a single commit patch that is merged to the main - it was never meant to represent an ongoing feature branch work

Livsun (@L1vsun) reportedmarket makers aren't quoting price they're running an inventory optimization formula, and every bid/ask you've ever traded against was its output formula is free, been public since 2008, and retail trading has never once mentioned it NYU professor Marco Avellaneda published the model - 14 pages, zero paywall, on SSRN reservation price: r = mid - inventory × γ × σ² × (T-t) when a desk holds too much of one side, they shift their entire spread to push flow the other direction. you were always a variable in that calculation 4 resources to run this yourself: > 1. avellaneda & stoikov 2008 - "high-frequency trading in a limit order book" - free on SSRN > 2. github: search "avellaneda stoikov python" - clean implementations under 200 lines > 3. tardis - historical level 2 order book data, exact inputs the model runs on > 4. lobsterdata - NASDAQ order book reconstructions, free academic access Bookmark this before placing another trade optimal spread: δ = γσ²(T-t) + (2/γ)ln(1 + γ/κ) γ = risk aversion, σ = volatility, T-t = time horizon, κ = arrival rate that second term - (2/γ)ln(1 + γ/κ) - is the profit extraction piece retail never sees you've never been on the right side of a spread - you've been the inventory problem they were solving

PhishCore (@PhishCore) reportedHow to set one up without being technical: Step 1: Go to Hetzner[.]com or DigitalOcean, create an account. rent the cheapest server. pick Ubuntu. takes 5 minutes. step 2: go to github[.]com/wg-easy/wg-easy. follow the install instructions. it has a visual interface. no coding required. step 3: download the WireGuard on your laptop. it's free. import the config file the server gives you. one button. step 4: turn it on. that's it. you now have a VPN that: — costs $5 a month — belongs only to you — isn't on any government blocklist — doesn't log your activity unless you set it up to

fucory (@FUCORY) reported@DennisonBertram When I show people my alternative their first question is "can it sync to github". Implying people just want these problems solved they don't actually want to leave github. If github solves them or someone solves them in a way that allows them to stay on github it is a better product than a full alternative

Matt Teixeira (@matt_teeixeira) reportedI failed after committing to GitHub for 186 days straight. My goal was to ship code every single day of 2026. No exceptions. And for 186 days, I did exactly that. Then a Saturday came and I just... forgot. Was it a vanity metric? Absolutely. But it represented something real: showing up every day, no matter how small the contribution. The upside is that the streak broke, the momentum didn't. 4,215 contributions this year. Every one was a problem solved, a feature shipped, a customer conversation turned into code. Building Deck has been one of the most rewarding things I've done. Every conversation with a product team trying to build better customer-led software reminds me why I started. The goal was never a green square on a chart. It was to never stop building. It's still day 1 🚀

VAIBHAV TUPE (@VAIBHAVTUPE) reportedICP KILLS AWS BILLING MODEL FOREVER. Blockchain cloud hosting just went mainstream and devs are sleeping on it. - Internet Computer Protocol runs full-stack apps 100 percent on-chain since 2021. No AWS, no Google Cloud, no centralized servers at all. - ICP trades at $2.40 to $2.60 with $1.34 billion market cap as of June 17, 2026. It ranks #57 to #60 among all cryptocurrencies. - Data egress on ICP costs 300 times less than AWS. But ICP charges for data ingress while AWS gives free inbound data. Storage is cheaper but replicated across all nodes. - Late 2025 upgrades boosted compute throughput by 50 percent and doubled subnet storage to 2 TiB per subnet. Total network storage hit 94 TiB across 47 subnets. - Mission 70 plan approved April 2026 cuts ICP inflation from 9.72 percent down to 2.92 percent to 5.42 percent by end of 2026. Token jumped 39 percent with volume spiking from $70 million to $700 million in 24 hours. - ICP hit 1 billion transactions in Q1 2026. GitHub had 3,196 commits with over 100 active contributors for 9 months straight. DFINITY signed Pakistan for 1,500 AI licenses in Feb 2026. - Canisters act as both code and database with reverse gas model so users pay zero fees. Cloud Engines launched May 2026 for 5th anniversary to target enterprise and gov workloads. 👉 Bottomline : ICP is not crypto hype. It is AWS without Amazon.

Workin' on my knight moves (@lain816460) reported@Herniestt @n_profitprophet @lmkifiwin The problem is most game server code is deeply-intertwined with corporate networks or software that was licensed by the publisher. People imagine a server is just a server they can upload to Github but that's not usually the case with these games.

RaIsa (@raisa394) reported2032 startup prediction: Proof of Becoming. Today, blockchains record what you own. LinkedIn records what you claim. Universities record what you learned. None of them record who you are becoming. That gap is about to become a trillion-dollar problem. As AI agents become better than humans at generating content, resumes, portfolios, certificates, and even entire online identities, trust in static credentials will collapse. A degree can be faked. A portfolio can be generated. A reputation score can be manipulated. But sustained personal growth is much harder to counterfeit. My startup idea: A decentralized protocol that creates a cryptographic record of human development. Instead of proving what you have, you prove how you evolved. Every learning milestone, skill acquisition, project completion, contribution, mentorship session, research breakthrough, fitness achievement, or creative work becomes a verified "Growth Block." AI agents analyze evidence across platforms. Intelligent contracts verify consistency. The protocol builds a living graph of personal progression over time. Think of it as GitHub commits for human potential. Why does this matter? Because the next generation of hiring, lending, investing, education, and online communities will need a better signal than followers, credentials, or social status. Imagine two founders raising capital. Founder A has a polished AI-generated profile. Founder B has a five-year on-chain record showing increasing technical skill, successful projects, community contributions, and measurable execution. Which signal would you trust? The real opportunity is not proving identity. It is proving trajectory. Trajectory predicts future value better than current status. Applications: • Recruiting based on growth velocity instead of resumes. • Education systems rewarding progress instead of test scores. • Credit systems evaluating reliability instead of historical wealth. • DAOs selecting contributors based on demonstrated evolution. • AI agents finding collaborators whose growth patterns match project needs. The protocol becomes a global infrastructure layer for reputation that cannot be bought, rented, or instantly fabricated. In a world flooded with artificial content, the scarcest asset will be authentic evidence of becoming. We built systems for storing money. We built systems for storing information. The next major protocol category may be storing human progress itself. That is the startup I would build. What would your "Proof of Becoming" graph reveal about your last five years? @RallyOnChain

Johann Siemens | Freedomeers (@johann_sie1985) reported@nneyoboy @N_and_ni Certs are an HR-Filter, not more, not less. The actual people who are hireing you from the Tech department don't really care about Certs, because you could've made it 6 months ago and then forgotten all the stuff you learned, because you never applied the knowledge afterwards, which is the main issue with learning stuff you don't use every day afterwards. I would argue that if you are appying for bigger companies, Certs are probably a solid helper to get through HR, but if you focus on smaller and mid-size companies who don't have an HR department then it's a waste of money, although some consulting companies want you to have them, because then they can easily "sell" your skills to customers. If i were you i would start screening the Cloud Engineering market in the area you want to apply for jobs and figure out what is beeing looked for, how long the jobs are "open", from which you can assume how strong the competition is and then you have a good overview on where your gaps are. I think building a well documented home-lab with GitHub and such will do more for you then Certs.

Peter (@kasselvania) reported@miu21590 @pauljunsukHan The chatGPT GitHub plugin is not great. Hella slow, misses movement in branches unless directly told. It's a nice idea to have a singular toolkit to keep things aligned and directionally synced. Don't know the quality of this tool, but just broadly speaking.

troy (@RobloxVoiceChat) reported@w1nthinker @Aspernator I had originally planned on publishing it to GitHub, but since this is decompiled code, I don't own it and I don't want to get in trouble with Roblox. Then again, other people have gotten away with publishing unlicensed code (see: Satchel, which copies Roblox's backpack code)

Vivo (@vivoplt) reportedThe IT market is broken, and nobody wants to admit it. Someone spends 6 months sending out resumes. Six MONTHS. They learn React, Next.js, TypeScript, AWS, Docker. They take courses, build projects, improve GitHub profiles, optimize LinkedIn. Nothing. Complete silence. Companies don’t just want programmers anymore. They want someone who codes, shines in meetings, makes memes on Slack, and lives the company culture 24/7. AI is replacing junior work. Seniors are holding onto senior roles. And somewhere in the middle are people with 2–3 years of experience who somehow still feel invisible.

Ben Canning (@benhackshealth) reportedSpent today setting up home assistant in the gym, ran into an issue with the connection between the software that controls the LEDs around the mirror. Found a 4 year old repo on github, downloaded it, updated the code, fixed the problem and now control the lights without having to get out of my seat... Am I a hacker now?

Kyz (@minhng92) reportedSomeone just leaked the entire Odoo course I delivered in-house for a company at $450 two years ago. I reached out to their CEO. Turned out an intern had published the course material (internal-only content) on GitHub — along with several other company projects. Repos were taken down immediately. Props to the CEO for the fast response. A hard lesson for any company working with interns. The wild part? I found out through a Firebase dev key embedded in the sample code (.zip file). @github 's automated secret scanner caught it and sent me an alert email. Absolutely brilliant!!! 🔥 I'm rewriting the entire Odoo basics course from scratch. Proper structure. Clear progression. Everything a beginner needs. Premium tutorials only at $64.99 (85% cheaper). Solutions completely free on GitHub. Search kyzlab/odoo-basic-course — drop a ☆ so you don't miss the updates.

Emmanuel G. (@e_goldstein_84) reportedUS11410159B2. To infringe on tZERO's patent, Securitize would have to use their exact method of deploying child/ancestor contracts that pass rules down the line. However, Securitize uses standard Proxy Patterns (similar to open-source libraries like OpenZeppelin). US12223496B2. Securitize will prob argue that their code is a standard implementation of Ethereum's decentralized smart contract patterns, which entirely lacks the proprietary server-client validation hardware described in tZERO’s legacy architecture. The cherry on top: Securitize launched its DS Protocol as an open-source framework. It's been public on GitHub for years. Securitize's DS Protocol was announced months before the tZERO patent was filed. Patents are being weaponized, and the fact that tZERO has $0 in RWA and 100+ patents makes me think that they are in a different business model. Kinda remind me the "need a lawyer" ads that you see while driving in the US.

Tanin (@LandTanin) reportedWeek 2 of trying @MulticaAI , random tips Been using it for basically 2 weeks now. Week 1 was a lot of trials and errors. It's a brilliant tool that integrates well with existing tools via CLI (for other tools to control it) and has the basic connection to things like GitHub. Random tips/gotchas I have learned from the past 2 weeks - Spawning a job/autopilot from a ticket has to be explicit. Agents somehow ignore instruction to spawn jobs. But if I tell it right in the comment, it'll do it (and apologise that it overlooked the agent instruction) - The ticket comment thread ain't the place you fix bugs. Every comment is a new ai agent session. And there's no plan mode. So most of the time after the agent finishes the ticket, if I need to fix something, I'll just pick it up in Codex or Claude Code

Mr. Buzzoni (@polydao) reportedA KOREAN PHD STUDENT PARSED 7,944 CLAUDE CODE SKILLS FROM GITHUB AND PROVED 33% OF THEM COST YOU MORE THAN NO SKILL AT ALL most public plugins bloat the system prompt, trigger model drift, and waste api costs on simple coding tasks but optimized claude skills are the ultimate cheat code for builders right now - if you filter out the trash: > obsidian vault - stores only your curated, verified skills as simple markdown files > hermes agent - dynamically manages execution, runs tests, and logs errors to auto-correct mistakes > Claude Opus 4.8 - reasoning engine that executes complex tasks using the filtered stack without context rotation this stack is how solo developers use this free ai agent framework to build $5,000/month automation agencies: > packaging and selling custom verified skill vaults to local businesses > delivering backend integrations 5x faster than a full team of engineers > charging clients high-ticket setup fees for custom autonomous agents that actually work your weekend project could change what monday looks like save this before you open claude code today 👇

Chronobus (@Chronobus) reported@ShitpostRock2 How do people attach themselves to Nexusmods of all things? There are so many other places you can get mods from like Gamebanana, Moddb, based mods, Github, etc. If you can't find alternatives then I'm afraid that's a you problem.

Jason (@followjason) reported🔗 + TLDR Zodl 3.6.0 adds support for viewing wallet balances and payments in any of 23 fiat currencies instead of only USD, with automatic updates that respect Tor privacy settings. Server selection now offers simple Automatic (best available) or Manual options for reliable connectivity, while new wallets sync directly from the current chain tip to skip outdated checkpoint scans and speed up setup. Release incorporates community input including a GitHub pull request from tippenein for currency features and collaboration with Valar Group; update available via App Store, Google Play, and new F-Droid repository.

Stefano Marchetti (@StefanoMarchty) reportedThe 5 steps that turn a voice note into a live product: 1. Talk out your idea like you're telling a friend 2. AI turns it into a 6-block spec 3. AI writes the instructions for the coding agent 4. The agent builds it autonomously (you go get coffee) 5. Test → GitHub → deploy No CS degree. Just real understanding of the problem you're solving. That barrier is gone. It's not coming back.
