  • offby1 Chris (@offby1) reported

    @github this is kind of odd; I've got a merged PR to a repository, but even on my own PR, I can't comment and get this error: "An owner of this repository has limited the ability to comment to users that have contributed to this repository in the past." What's up with that?

  • pbachman_ch #Phil (@pbachman_ch) reported

    @AuMayeung @github issues for task tracking and for time tracking @toggl

  • liloieee uské orchestra stan acct (@liloieee) reported

    can anyone from swarthmore who is good at github help me with something im trying to put something i made in a lab into a private repository but i’m having issues

  • marcqualie Marc Qualie 🌱⚡️ (@marcqualie) reported

    @scottymeuk @vuejs @github It’s definitely a vue thing, or at least how it works with webpacker. I work on a lot of rails/webpacker repos, every single vue one is slow, even tiny prototypes with a few components. React apps with thousands of components etc, basically instant in dev, 10s max on CI

  • _TheCB4 CB (@_TheCB4) reported

    Sooooo… @github @githubstatus Big Sur #githubactions are broken?

  • RichardLindhout Richard Lindhout (@RichardLindhout) reported

    @MCiance Sure, I would recommend making an issue on GitHub so it'll show up when I work on it

  • jcape James Cape (@jcape) reported

    I assume github would also have to come down. If you want to keep distributing source code, you'll need to run your own *** server.

  • zyrnwtf ⌜ 𝙯𝙮𝙧𝙣 🎄 ⌟ (@zyrnwtf) reported

    @h0nde ah. what even is the point of publicizing broken/useless code? it seems dumb as hell. when i put something on GitHub i at least make sure it’s functional

  • javascriptual JavaScript Teacher (@javascriptual) reported

    What advice would you give to someone who is learning to code for the first time in 2021? Skills: HTML5, CSS (grid, flex,) Basic JavaScript (Fetch API, json, callbacks) *** / get a GitHub if you haven't already. Basic Node + Mongo + Express server. What else is missing?

  • seafoam6 orb from Phantasm (@seafoam6) reported

    Pro-tip for #webdev people. Make a very tiny insignificant fix to a popular github repo and watch those recruiters flood you. Once I fixed a semi-colon in a css file and my phone ran off the hook for a week.

  • sapphicsoftware beatrix (@sapphicsoftware) reported

    @onefuncman @QuinnyPig @awscloud they provide support via Discord? and here I am filing GitHub issues like a loser

  • 360Bubo 360BuboBubo (@360Bubo) reported

    @DetectionLab Love the project, thanks for the effort Chris! Would it be possible to establish means (maybe there are already some I don't know about yet apart from twitter and github issues) to discuss "minor" issues/problems or ideas, e.g., a slack channel?

  • RailgunEnjoyer lucy 🎄 (@RailgunEnjoyer) reported

    the github issue is a pretty detailed explanation as to why it needs the actual permissions that it does this video is already pretty popular and a lot of people are believing this dude off of bs

  • chrisjordanme Chris Jordan (@chrisjordanme) reported

    @AWSSupport I’ve been scrolling through Github issues. I think my issues have to do with CLI version and perhaps my current node version as well. So, maybe a user issue actually 😬

  • 07FTPP22 07FTPP21 (@07FTPP22) reported

    @ipacglobal It appears that google has scrubbed the list locations from web searches and github no requires a login to access. Does anyone know where there is an english version of the list?

  • itsfahmiegerton Fm. (@itsfahmiegerton) reported

    Everytime I'm going to some repo on @github issue, trying to find a solution to a problem, I mostly get "kicked out" on there. Maybe because I'm a newbie and always ask silly questions to Pro users on there😐. Now gh is another places that makes me insecure other than readme page

  • MichelDizAeh Michel Diz (@MichelDizAeh) reported

    Someone should come up with a decentralized *** server based on Blockchain. So we could have really secure projects. Noone would be able to attack the core of any project. Like hijacking some companies like Github using some arbitrary "law".

  • RhlNyk Rahul Nayak (@RhlNyk) reported

    Why the "Forgot password?" link of GitHub login page is between the 2 input fields? 🤷🏿 It's annoying to hit tab twice to enter password after entering the username. Most of the time I forget that, type the whole password and hit enter without looking at the screen.

  • alexellisuk Alex Ellis (@alexellisuk) reported

    @RealRockaut What weird troubles? Did you create an issue on GitHub?

  • moezpycaretorg1 Moez Ali (@moezpycaretorg1) reported

    @DataChaz Can’t tell why. Under the hood we are using scikit-learn so I can’t think of any reason that the results should be worse then sklearn. Please feel free to open an issue on our GitHub with more details and maybe sample dataset / code and somebody might be able to help!

  • trusktr Joe Pea (@trusktr) reported

    @simevidas I think we can add that to spec in a backwards compatible way. Worth opening a GitHub issue for it.

  • Jerephens Jérémy (@Jerephens) reported

    @vuejs Hello, I tried to create an account on your forum in order to get some help but it's not working. Not getting any activation email. I posted an issue on your GitHub and got a pretty disrespectful answer as well as a simple closed issue. Unhappy new user here, please help😡

  • lesliecdubs Leslie Cohn-Wein (@lesliecdubs) reported

    Anyone else ever work over the holidays and end up deep-diving into open source GitHub issues from 2017 for 2 hours in order to write 2 lines of code? no just me? oh ok

  • marcqualie Marc Qualie 🌱⚡️ (@marcqualie) reported

    @scottymeuk @vuejs @github Yeah I meant webpacker specifically. You can make compilation pretty slow with bad webpack configs, maybe the vue one isn’t optimised. I’ve never used a vue app outside of it to compare tbh

  • bramus Bramus! (@bramus) reported

    @csshoudini @Una Through which channel can we provide developer feedback on working with Houdini? Perhaps an issue in some GitHub repo?

  • simjp JP Simard (@simjp) reported

    @jesse_squires How long until we see DMCA take down GitHub comments?

  • klightningcrest branner (@klightningcrest) reported

    haven't been able to save progress lately because there's a large file in my commit history that github complains about and rejects every commit :( got more and more nervous about progress without saving, today i fix that and apparently the answer is filter-branch

  • gregheo Greg Heo (@gregheo) reported

    @jesse_squires the real question is can I run youtube-dl on a github PR/issue URL to download all the attached videos

  • gennaro_prota Gennaro Prota (@gennaro_prota) reported

    @haacked @anaisbetts I saw that it is not by @GitHub. Well, the forced push problem exists on GitHub, too. I don't see why they don't just use *** to count the commits.
