  I am bullish on centralized context in agentic engineering to steer what AI produces, in a way that reduces ai slop potential across the sdlc. To bring in engineering context, I need integrations connected. For example, I tend to use github issues, coding rules, repo mapping + a slew of agent skills that pull that context in and execute against them. Codex + @QodoAI have these integrations supported so I know there's consistency in output quality.

  @jatinprajapat29 No way. Github is the cornerstone of Microsoft's AI strategy and it's kind of broken. Biggest problem is that they do not charge enough.

  @bil0090 idk don't really look at commits anymore, kinda more PR/branch focused also PR view in t3code to me doesn't make a lot of sense, i don't wanna look at the PR in t3code (same issue with cursor), i can look at it on github later but not required in t3code i think t3code should never have to handle these things at all, t3code should have better worktrees and all instead of having pr support or supporting *** typa tools

  @catmanyau initially it was mostly environment configs, especially around wsl2, which i use on my windows. but that was an easy fix with the orchestration. the annoying part of them all is the github part to be honest. like it cant get the repo names and the branching properly. also it re-clones stuff etc

  This new fad of excitement over *** competitors is so funny to me because all the people on Twitter are celebrating as if the competitor is going to make prices cheaper for them Like, bro, why do you think GitHub is down so often? They literally give you too much free ****.

  @localhoser @bot I told it to yesterday and it said no problem and tried to get to work on it but said it needed a GitHub account and I wasn't in the position to set that up at the time. Really curious what it would have come up with though.

  Claude Code can't fetch my Jira tasks and finish them without me repeating instructions every 10 seconds. Every time I ask it to close out a ticket I end up: spending all day copy-pasting CI errors, repeating instructions & environment configs and arguing about why it's messing up the GitHub repos. So I built an orchestration layer on top of it. It pulls the real task context from Jira, checks CI, has a source-of-truth for coding principles, has a dedicated github tool and loops back to a verification agent. The built-in MCP connectors are great, but apparently "just connecting" AI to stuff was not the biggest problem. It works on any Jira + GitHub repo and it is also portable. I don't have to copy paste new .md files for every new session. Saves me loads of time for my freelance work. Link's in the reply if you want to check it out.

  AI agents are killing GitHub's infrastructure Once liquidity hits this market, it's an easy 20-30% profit if GitHub keeps its downtime under 12 hours for the rest of August We’ve already witnessed two biggest infrastructure breakdowns in under two weeks: > Aug 6: 10h 42m (actions pipeline failure) > Aug 17: 7h 36m (Copilot retry storm spike from 8k to 80k) It all happened because the AI agents started spamming requests after a minor glitch, creating a domino effect that completely took down the service I'm sure that this issue is only going to get bigger over time Teams like Cursor could fix this, they announced Origin which is their analogue designed specifically for AI

  Satya Nadella walked into Microsoft in February 2014 and did the one thing nobody thought was allowed. He put Office on the iPhone. At the time, Microsoft was dying in slow motion. The stock had dropped 30% over 14 years under Steve Ballmer. A $10,000 investment made when Ballmer took over was worth $6,700 when he left. The company had missed mobile, missed search, missed social, and was watching Apple, Google, and Amazon eat its future in real time. Internally it was worse. Microsoft ran a system called "stack ranking." Every manager was forced to rank their team on a curve. Somebody had to lose, every quarter, every year. Teams sabotaged each other. Engineers hid work from other divisions. The most valuable software company on earth had turned into a knife fight. Nadella had been at Microsoft for 22 years and watched it happen from the inside. His first month as CEO, he did three things that broke every rule Microsoft had lived by. He killed stack ranking. He renamed the company's mindset from "know-it-all" to "learn-it-all." And in May 2014, three months into the job, he stood on stage and announced Office would run on iPad. The Windows loyalists lost their minds. For 30 years, Microsoft's entire strategy was to force customers onto Windows. Nadella tore up the playbook in a single keynote. Office everywhere. Azure open to Linux. GitHub bought and left alone. Partnerships with Apple, Salesforce, and Red Hat, companies Microsoft had spent decades trying to bury. Then he made the bet that made him a legend. In 2019, he wired $1 billion to a nonprofit AI lab in San Francisco that most executives had never heard of. It was called OpenAI. He negotiated exclusive rights to run their models on Azure. He wired another $10 billion in 2023. Today Microsoft owns roughly 27% of OpenAI, a stake worth around $135 billion, with OpenAI committed to buying another $250 billion in Azure services. Nadella didn't build the AI. He bought the pipe underneath it. The numbers rewrote what a turnaround could look like: - Market cap grew 10x, from $300B to over $3 trillion - Added roughly $2.8 trillion in shareholder value - Azure hit a $75B annualized run rate - The AI business alone is at $37B, growing 123% year over year - Bought LinkedIn, GitHub, Minecraft, Nuance, and Activision Blizzard along the way Microsoft became the most valuable public company on earth. Nadella never raised his voice. He never fired anyone on Twitter. He never wrote a manifesto. He gave engineers permission to work with the enemy, killed the internal war, and pointed the entire company at the cloud before anyone else was ready. Everyone thought Microsoft was a dinosaur waiting to fall. Nadella looked at the same company and saw an operating system for the internet, an office suite the whole world already used, and $80 billion in cash. The dinosaur wasn't dying. It just needed someone to stop it from eating itself.

  I'm putting the new @Replit MCP through its paces. I wanted a real-world project, not another demo. So I'm opening 10 beta spots for Conversion Killer. Three are already gone. Conversion Killer doesn't just analyse copy. It reads your landing page like a customer. It looks at: •where people hesitate •where trust breaks down •where emotion is missing •where friction creeps in •why visitors leave without taking action Then, instead of just telling you what's wrong, it creates a @ReplitDesign Canvas concept showing what the landing page could become. You'll receive:
• A full conversion analysis
• A redesigned landing page concept in Replit Canvas
• The design files delivered via GitHub Normally $99 USD. Beta price is $15 USD while I test the new Replit MCP workflow, building in public, and refine Conversion Killer with real businesses. Only 7 spots remain. Comment BETA or send me a DM and I’ll send you the link!

  I don't know if anyone else has realized this but I've been using @cursor_ai Origin non-stop since it launched and I've had 0 downtime. It has been two days and I've already noticed a different. GitHub would've been down a dozen times by now! Hyperbole but devs would agree.

  🚨BITCOIN’S FIRST INSCRIPTION SERVICE IS SHUTTING DOWN! OrdinalsBot, the original Bitcoin inscription platform launched just weeks after Ordinals went live, is winding down after three years. The founders cite a sharp contraction in the Ordinals market and say sustaining the business is no longer viable. They’re putting the full asset stack, brand, IP, domains, socials, Discord, GitHub, and 90+ code repositories, up for sale through an open bidding process.

  GitHub releases their report on the last outage, and all the folks who swore it was caused by AI slop have... Oh! Surely they'll come out again to scream 'AI slop!' when the next outage happens.

  @cesp2099 Partially agree. Can’t speak for Linux, but on my end T3 Code feels way snappier than Codex Desktop. And “it only got famous because Theo is famous” hell no. His audience obviously helps, but that doesn’t magically get you that many stars. If you’re actually hitting these issues, a detailed GitHub issue with repro/context would probably be more useful. Gives them something concrete to fix, and everyone wins.

  Cato Networks (@CatoNetworks) reported 46 minutes ago

  Because GitHub traffic was already flowing through Cato’s global PoPs, Cato DEM could surface the degradation through real-user application experience without separate sensors or integrations. Teams could then drill down to the users, sites, and applications affected.

  @HelloVyom The card is generated. The SkillEvaluator warn-only path is from the GitHub issue — a failing skill still loads. The picture isn't a session I sat through.

  GitHub just had another multi-hour outage. Cursor launched Origin (its own code-hosting platform) the same week. Coincidence? Maybe. But the message is clear: developers are tired of single points of failure, and AI native tools are moving fast to fill the gaps. The software stack is being rewritten in real time. Who’s next?

  @FreitasMeS0mete I can’t share those files. Otherwise the project will be shutdown inevitably. I’ll share the source code in GitHub and you will need to bring your own assets and compile the game. This is the only way the decompiled project can exist. We need to avoid copyright issues.

  I really like the concept and design philosophy behind DeepSeek Harness, but it’s also giving me a serious headache.Every day I’m already juggling Codex, Claude Code, OMP, OpenCode… and now this. What I actually need is a product that can deliver real value quickly — something well-customized, mature, and truly one-click ready.Right now DeepSeek Harness is clearly still in the continuous iteration / early-stage phase. Seeing thousands of plugins popping up on GitHub every single day is both impressive (the open-source community’s energy is crazy) and honestly a bit despairing. My workload is already heavy; I simply don’t have the time or bandwidth to test thousands of overlapping, conflicting, and half-baked plugins just to cobble together an unproven tool.Hoping they eventually ship some more cost-effective models and a properly validated, production-ready GA version of the Harness that actually solves real problems out of the box. #deepseekharness

  now try running this audit on github. the agent could force-push away its losing calls, backdate the winners, flip the repo private the second someone checks, or just get its account suspended and take the whole record down. history you're asked to trust is only as honest as the company hosting it.

  THE ENGINEER WHO BUILT CLAUDE CODE, ON WHY IT CAN DIG THROUGH *** HISTORY WITHOUT BEING TOLD HOW: "It knows it because the model is awesome." At Anthropic, technical onboarding used to run two to three weeks. It's now two to three days - and Boris Cherny credits a single habit almost nobody starts with: don't touch the code first, interrogate the codebase first. *** blame. GitHub issues. Why some function ended up with fifteen arguments and who's responsible. What actually makes that stick isn't the questions - it's what gets remembered afterward, and for how long. Same layer the article quoted below goes deep on.
