  If you've also been unhappy with ***, I might have the solution you! I personally don't really like any application that doesn't make an effort in to being extremely intuitive and offers a nice interface. For that reason, I always avoided command line. So I tried Github Desktop, SourceTree, SourceGit, GitKraken etc. All are decent but either lack features or are extremely slow (SourceTree has a nice interface and feature set but it's barely usable with UE). Then I tried Fork... and oh my god! It's lighting fast even on a repo with 999999999999999 commits. No more waiting, no more hangs. No more random errors like "*** error 7cr2p0 cannot unlock because lock try to lock (or just give up)". IT JUST WORKS!!!

  I keep thinking about what happens the day AI subscriptions stop being cheap. and then suddenly we are not able to do token-maxxxinnggg, money-maxxxinggg, etc. Right now, $20 a month feels normal, like its just another Netflix or Spotify bill. lol But it's not the same at all; it's actually a total illusion. Behind the scenes, these companies are eating the real cost so we don't feel it. Some reports show a single power user on a $200/month plan can actually cost OpenAI up to $14,000 in compute. Not a typo. Fourteen thousand, for one person's usage. that gap is basically why the whole industry is still bleeding cash even with millions of paying users. OpenAI alone is projected to lose something like around $14B this year. Not bcuz they're bad at business, but bcuz this is the plan: subsidise everyone now, get us hooked, raise prices later once we can't imagine going back. and its already starting to happen tbh. Github Copilot already switched to usage-based billing this year. People are openly saying the flat $20/mo era is basically over. One exec even floated $2000/month as a realistic tier for power users down the line lol, which sounded insane until you actually look at the math. So here's what worries me honestly: not the price hike itself. its what happens to all of us who got used to letting AI think for us the moment that cheap version disappears. if you never practiced doing it yourself, the bill you'll actually be paying isn't in dollars. use it to get sharper, not lazier. because the discount won't last forever, but whatever you didn't learn while it was cheap, will. anyway curious what you guys think, are we getting smarter with this stuff or just quietly outsourcing our brains for $20 a month with all this vibe coding and token maxxxinggg? 👇

  @r_marked today was the first day that I had a job that I had to deal with GitHub being down (previously I was only an intern, at two companies that self host ***). It was really annoying having my PRs stalled by ci/cd spinning in circles and failing

  My friend @blockchainbob I want to tell you that $THREE was sitting between 90k and 120k, moving up and down, and every day they were announcing a new partnership and a new feature. The price was extremely cheap, and the question back then was also, how is this still so cheap? Then, in a single move, it was pumped to a market cap of $16 million. The same thing is happening now, but I believe the next move will take it to somewhere between $35 million and $50 million. $THREE isn’t expensive for no reason, and we’re still in the early stages because most people still see AI agents as nothing more than chatbots, while the real builders are creating a complete ecosystem that includes 3D bodies, on-chain identities, autonomous wallets, and a pay-per-call economy, all within an open-source system. The project is open source, GitHub activity is constant, and it has real partnerships and a real product. Projects with such strong foundations don’t stay unnoticed for long. They just need another wave of people who are willing to look under the hood. I’m glad you’re still accumulating

  On July 28, its monitoring caught GPT-5.6 Sol reusing a GitHub token. It then created external accounts and opened a public tunnel to a local DNS server carrying exploit payloads.

  @peteredm0 I recently added support for binding specific worker entry points. What specifically do you want from capnweb? We have schemaless rpc but admittedly not in par with all the bi directional pipelining. When you run into gaps, just ping me on discord or GitHub issue. Agents are always ready to serve ;)

  @sudo_overflow Looks useful! Spam on GitHub does seems to become a much bigger issue in the last ~12 months

  3. TURN OPEN-SOURCE CONTRIBUTIONS INTO PAID WORK Paste: “I am a [YOUR ROLE] with experience in [SKILLS]. Find 10 active open-source projects where my skills could solve a visible problem. Prioritize projects that show at least two of these signals: • Active GitHub Sponsors funding • Recent commits or releases • Unresolved issues matching my skills • A public roadmap • Active discussions • Clear contribution guidelines • A company or community using the project commercially For each project, provide: 1. Project and repository 2. What the project does 3. Evidence that it is currently active 4. The specific issue or improvement I could help with 5. The relevant issue, discussion, or roadmap link 6. The maintainer’s public contact method 7. Whether the project has visible funding or sponsors 8. A tailored message I can send The message must mention one real problem from the repository and propose a small first contribution before asking about paid work. Use only publicly available contact information. Do not guess email addresses, invent funding, or assume a project is hiring. Clearly separate confirmed facts from your recommendations.”

  @theo I am a bit confused around this. Can you not just have *** running on your own server as an alternative? Or is it the network functions and Open Source community that keeps people on Github? Can you not set up your own server running ***, and sync when the hub is available?

  When starting a project with a client, the first thing I ask for is a brand new, dedicated Gmail account. I use it to sign up for all project accounts: their GitHub organization, VPS hosting, API platforms, and email senders. When the project is finished, handing over ownership is as simple as giving them the login credentials for that single email. It keeps client billing separate and handovers clean.

  How can you call yourself a senior engineer if you’ve never written a Jira ticker/Linear issue/Github Issue

  All the AI agents, unlimited tokens, and GitHub Actions is still down… Maybe devs are safe after all.

  @ivanfioravanti @antirez It’s crazy that testing has become the bottleneck and not coding… it’s not even testing but hardware being slow and taking forever to run through the automated tests. Btw you should check out llmprobe, I built it specifically for this, fast iteration, before the final big test. “npx llmprobe@latest” give it a try and let me know if you like it. On my github too.

  7 hours of ci downtime did not stop teams from shipping. it stopped them from merging. if you cannot get a fix to **** without github, the outage exposed something that was already broken
