  @CricTalk29 for me, losing Cursor would hurt most because it sits directly in the editing loop. would the vote change if github outages were limited to code hosting but issues and reviews stayed available?

  @github I need help with support ticket #4718335 Issue not been resolved for 2+ months. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

  @Anime0t4ku Sorry - was an idiot and wasn't signed in. Instead of something useful github just says 'opening issues is restricted on this repository'

  First surprise: a GitHub issue form isn’t a form. It’s a YAML file. You describe the field- this one’s a dropdown, this one’s required and GitHub builds the UI from that. I did not know that.

  @RedPill_Phil You've gotta go to their github and submit an issue. Make sure to search their issues to ensure you don't submit a duplicate bug

  Every time @github goes down they should have a plan to please their users. Give me free credits for actions for example 👍🏼

  $Looprat 473K 0x642d30c84211ade7768fe557fbaed7224e2068c7 How do you get a coding agent to keep working while you sleep—without letting it randomly rewrite code, blow through the budget, or grade itself a perfect score? Loop Rat breaks an unattended task into: preflight → act → verify → guard → grade → receipt. The agent is woken up on a schedule to execute tasks. The code results first go through deterministic verification. Then it checks the denylist, the number of modified files, and secrets. Finally, a second independent agent regrades the work, with checkpoints, traces, and receipts left throughout the entire process. More importantly, this isn't a PPT. The project only had v0.1 on August 27. Then it added guard, kill switch, and spend ledger on August 29. On September 1, it added second-agent grading. On September 2, it continuously fixed scheduling, budget caps, timeouts, and concurrent ledgers. Today, September 3, it's already updated to v0.3.3. Shipping multiple versions in under a week—that's exactly what I want to see in a small-cap play like this: code is running, and the narrative is following the product, rather than launching a token first and filling in the story afterward. It currently defaults to Claude, but it doesn't lock the model down. As long as the CLI can consume a prompt and return JSON, it can be swapped. And the whole thing runs locally—no SaaS, no database, no extra accounts required. The project has even already run 50 smoke checks covering key areas like scheduling, guard, budget, kill switch, and timeout. So my trading logic for $Looprat is simple: The next phase of the agent race isn't about "can it work autonomously." It's about "can it work continuously while still being constrained, audited, and stopped." Loop Rat happens to be building exactly that layer of infrastructure. The project is still very early. The catalyst truly worth watching isn't shilling—it's whether the GitHub keeps up this iteration speed, and whether developers actually start plugging it into their own repos. Once those two things happen, $Looprat stops being just a ticker riding the agent hype, and starts having its own fundamental anchor.

  @SentientSquirel @linuxuser1996 So you are you scared of github then. Look dude I have fun on computers and don't take myself seriusly because I have destroyed enough OS's over to not worry about it because I just fix it, If the contents of your PC make you this paranoid its time to check your kink.

  Back when GitHub added Copilot PR reviews, it helped me keep up with the growing volume and size of our pull requests, which were increasingly being written by Copilot too. Over time I grew comfortable feeding Copilot's review comments straight back to Copilot to fix, and mostly spot checking when critical functionality was involved. When GitHub updated the Copilot pricing model I switched to Claude Code, but kept the Copilot review feature on for a couple of months. When the monthly bills for Copilot AI usage alone started rivaling the Claude Code Max plan, giving Claude Code PR review duties seemed like an obvious cost saving move. Plugging Claude Code into our PR review process immediately went south. The first PR churned with fixes to findings that resulted in more findings, and fixes that propagated up and down the call chain. I threw the PR away and started over, but the next attempt churned just as badly. Turn count on its own was never the signal. Copilot had taken ten turns on a rate-key cleanup the day before and nobody minded, because the findings thinned as it went — 5, 4, 3, 3, 3, 4, 1, 2 — and it merged. The cached-token billing PR I put through Claude Code took nine turns and produced 123 inline findings, and the ninth round was still returning fifteen. I closed it without merging. Looking closer at Claude Code's review findings, it was clear it reported far more issues than Copilot ever did, and among legitimate bugs and concerns, it made lots of comments about latent and speculative issues including possible race conditions and error propagation, things Claude Code would then try to fix one by one in isolation, often ignoring existing patterns in the code base. The code-review workflow is built into Claude Code and cannot be customized other than a few options, so the only place to intervene was on the other end, in the session where I used to just ask the coding agent to address the review findings. The first improvement was to direct Claude Code not to blindly fix all findings, but to defer findings not directly related to the task at hand to new issues. That helped reduce the PR churn, but blew up our issue backlog. The next improvement was to ask Claude Code to ignore speculative findings and disregard most latent findings unless they indicated high risk of unrecoverable damage in production. Finally, I had to stop Claude Code from authoring prescriptive issues with detailed implementation instructions. The result is a skill that triages PR review findings, and a skill for authoring and updating issues. After a few iterations of the skills, I've been able to complete ten PRs over a couple of days, bringing back the pace we had before. I've made the skills available in a public GitHub repository (link in the first reply). Let me know if you find them helpful.

  THIS GUY BUILT A TINY AMOLED DESK BOARD JUST TO STARE AT HIS STRIPE NUMBERS it's a Waveshare ESP32-C6 touch panel that sits in your peripheral vision and cycles business metrics so you stop digging through Stripe > same ESP32-C6 board people use for Claude Code token meters, flipped to revenue > eight screens, five seconds each: MRR, new paid, paid subs, cancelled, ARR, ARPU, net 30d, failed > empty screens hide themselves so a young account sees a shorter loop > polls Stripe every five minutes on a read-only key (subscriptions + invoices) > marks itself stale instead of showing a number it can't vouch for > no soldering: flash over USB, finish Wi-Fi + key setup from your phone > data stays on the board; no project server in the middle firmware free on GitHub: cosjef/stripe-desk-display. board ~$30–$36 (Waveshare ESP32-C6-Touch-AMOLED-2.16). chat and terminal can't sit in your eye line for five hours. a tab you have to open is a tab you stop opening. this is what "the numbers find you" looks like as a brick on the desk.

  @Mike_Preston17 I don't think they water them down, why would they when they're competing on having AGI? I don't mind using GitHub actions to run tests and builds against a branch before merge. I don't want it triggering production schedules. Do you list all the things it shouldn't do in the prompt?
