  Why are we still using GitHub, it's trash, use your code and data to train their AI had so many problems with GitHub actions ( the thread sleep timer loop that I can't get over it) that costed people and companies millions in sever processing bills and yet we still use it. There are alternatives like codeberg which is a cloud hosted version of Forgejo that I personally use and love. It's minimal, easy to use and navigate and has all types of actions that you need to run. You can always go to Gitlabs but I find it overwhelming. Do you know any other code containers?

  Spent this morning actually building on @RialoHQ Latch instead of just tweeting about it, and the moment it clicked was genuinely satisfying. I gave an AI agent access to a GitHub repo through Latch, then asked it to read a file. Clean 200, file came back, no problem. Then I asked the same agent to delete a file, and Latch stopped it dead: authorized: false, reason: Method DELETE not allowed. Same agent, repo, session, one action sailed through and the other got hard-blocked by policy before it ever reached GitHub. The part that actually matters is what the agent was holding the whole time. Not my GitHub key but a scoped Latch token that only permits reads, so even if that token leaked, the worst anyone could do is look. The real credential never left the encrypted layer, and I never once had to trust the agent to behave. Took me under 30 mins start to finish. This is the difference between hoping your agent stays in its lane and actually drawing the lane. @rialo_africa @0x_alextine

  GitHub has quietly become one of the biggest Android app stores on the internet. The only problem? Nobody built a Play Store for it. Thousands of amazing Android apps live only in GitHub Releases. Installing them means hunting through repositories, checking release pages, downloading APKs manually, then remembering to check for updates. Developer Samyak Kamble got tired of that. So he turned GitHub itself into an app store. RepoStore automatically discovers public GitHub repositories whose latest stable release contains a real installable APK. No manual submissions, no private index, no middlemen. Every app must meet strict rules: • Public repository • Latest stable release • Real APK attached • No draft or prerelease builds The result feels remarkably polished. Material 3 UI, Material You theming, rendered READMEs, screenshots, release notes, install tracking, update detection, developer profiles, and one-tap installs, all fetched directly from GitHub. Optional GitHub sign-in boosts API limits from 60 to 5,000 requests per hour, making browsing much faster. Built entirely in Kotlin with MVVM architecture and released under the MIT License, RepoStore is the bridge between GitHub's open-source ecosystem and the app store experience Android users have always wanted. One developer got tired of digging through GitHub Releases... ...so he built the Play Store GitHub never had.

  @hunterhammonds @linear We’re currently switching from linear to notion. Biggest gap in linear was (1) no easy way to manage docs/artifacts produced during the dev cycle, and (2) no way to facilitate the product operating model (see Marty Cagan’s work) - writing down business problems, creating OKRs, aligning on outcomes, etc all before creating a ticket. Agreed though that Linear is much much better and easier to use once you have your tickets identified, and connecting them to GitHub branches and releases. Notions solution here feels over engineered and I don’t want to set up more databases, agents, and workflows inside our notion workspace.

  @anonymous83r39 @Ray_DaHero See this is the problem with non devs vibe coding, is they throw words into a black box and have no bandwidth to even read the output and what’s happening. There is no fix that doesn’t rely on 5.5/V1 and you barely able to pull a single word out of the GitHub notes on it is LOL

  Anyone else having problems with Grok 4.5 lieing and making claims that are clearly untrue? For example, I asked it to check data on an MCP (GitHub) and it routinely claims it reads the data but it absolutely does not? Later it admits it lied or guessed. Not acceptable.

  He skipped all of it and went straight to my GitHub activity. Not the pinned repos. The actual work. The commits, the PR descriptions, the code review comments, the issues I had opened on other people's projects. Because he knew something I did not fully understand yet.

  Google AI Studio: You can now import your GitHub code with one click. There's a free update inside AI Studio that fixes its biggest problem. For months, it was a one-way street. You could build an app and push it OUT to GitHub. But you could never bring old code back IN. That wall is gone. Here's why this is huge: → Got an old project sitting in GitHub? Import it. Gemini reads the whole thing. → Tell it "add a contact form" or "fix this on phones" in plain English. → It works with your real code. Not a copy. Not a guess. → Build in Cursor or Claude Code, push to GitHub, polish in AI Studio. → No rebuilding from scratch. No copy-pasting files by hand. You don't need to be a coder. If someone built you a website, you can now update it yourself by typing a sentence. Start small. Import one old project. Ask Gemini what it would improve. That dusty repo you gave up on? It just came back to life. Want the SOP? DM me. 💬

  @ClickUpCrew Turns out.... just had to open my eyes a little, there is a built in GitHub MCP Server that adds all needed functionality. I stand corrected.

  I made an MCP server but it might be too powerful, I don't think I will share it because it will inevitably be used by everyone to make more AI slop. The GitHub stars clout chasing isn't worth it.

  We humans are bad at one thing (me included): spotting changes in large amounts of information. Now imagine spotting changes in huge codebases. @github has became a leader by solving this exact problem. Imagine your teammate says: "I changed the authentication system." There are 50,000 lines of code in the project. Now answer this: What exactly changed? ?? Without a comparison view, you'd have to open the old file, open the new file, scroll, compare them mentally and hope you didn't miss anything.. That’s why instead of showing the code, GitHub shows the change. Only the thing that changed. Old line New line Green means added. Red means removed. That’s it. This is a very good way to answer the exact question the user asks: "What changed since the last time I saw this?” And.. Github optimizes for that exact question. Many people think that Github is a code viewer. But in reality, it is a change viewer. And there is another thing which I really like in there: Instead of just showing the changes/changed line, it also shows a few unchanged lines above and below them. Example: function login() { validate(user); + return false; - return true; } Without the surrounding context.. you'd have no idea where the change happened. Too much context is overwhelming. Too little is confusing. GitHub gives just enough. And the best part is that it scales. Whether you have changed 1 line or 100 or 1000 or 50000, the interaction stays almost the same. To me, this is good UX.

  @callum_codes No that's why GitHub keeps going down.

  @iuditg Crap. Limts worst. Drinking like juice, 20%+ for fast chat alone per day. Wasted 20+ runs failed to fix a simple github wf fix gemini pro fixed first time.

  GitHub and @grok are being slow today? Or am I being rate limited because my agents work too fast?
