  GitHub might finally have a serious competitor. And it’s from Cursor. Most people know Cursor as an AI code editor. But Cursor Origin is much bigger. It’s trying to become an AI-native alternative to GitHub where AI agents don’t just help write code. They help build entire products. Think: • Source control • AI coding agents • Code review • Project understanding • Team collaboration all inside one workflow. Why developers are paying attention: Instead of manually searching through repositories, you can tell AI: • Fix this bug • Build this feature • Refactor this project • Investigate an issue • Ship a working version And AI handles much of the execution. The bigger shift: GitHub was built for humans writing code. Cursor Origin is being built for humans managing AI agents that write code. That’s a completely different future. We’re moving from: Human → Code to Human → AI Agent → Code My take: If GitHub defined the software era, Cursor Origin could help define the AI-native development era. And that’s why Elon Musk acquiring Cursor would be huge. xAI would gain: • AI models • Compute infrastructure • Coding agents • A developer platform That’s not just buying a product. That’s owning a major piece of how future software gets built.

  Claude Code just took my GitHub issue, wrote the code, ran the tests, and opened a PR. My job: approve it. The dev workflow isn't changing. It already changed.

  Claude Code can take a GitHub issue, write the code, run tests, and open a reviewed PR — no human keystrokes required. The dev loop isn't getting faster. It's being removed.

  It works with the tools teams already use. GitHub Issues become the queue. Each issue gets picked up by an agent. The agent works in a branch/worktree. Tests run. Failures feed back into the loop. Successful work becomes a PR. No new project management database required.

  GitHub forcing safer defaults in actions/checkout v7 is a necessary move to kill the notorious pwn request, but the real risk is developers blindly copy-pasting the bypass flag to quiet build failures. Starting July 16, 2026, this fork-blocking behavior gets backported to all major floating tags. Since raw *** CLI steps remain unprotected, will this actually clean up GitHub Actions security, or will teams just use allow-unsafe-pr-checkout as a quick fix?

  @XFreeze I tried out the new update to Grok Build last night and put it to the test. It helped me go back to a far previous session, it actually has all sessions in a nice area to look at and choose from. I challenged it to fix a broken framework I had built with the earlier versions of Grok Build and with the help of @grok too. I had published it a couple weeks ago and it was not working well. But now after a couple prompts... clayforge the first ai-matove framework for multi agent UI's. You should check it out if you are coding with AI. It's on GitHub.

  A GitHub repo called Microsoft Activation Scripts has 178,783 stars and has run for six years without Microsoft taking it down. It activates Windows 7, 8, 10, and 11 plus Office 2010–2024 and related products for free, using four methods, including one for permanent Windows activation. Meanwhile, Microsoft licenses for these start at $139 and go up yearly for 365 bundles. The repo costs zero, requires one command, and remains active with recent commits under GPL-3.0. Do not install it. via @heynavtoor

  AMD quietly removed RAM encryption from consumer Ryzen CPUs. Via a routine firmware update. No release notes. No advisory. No announcement. The BIOS setting still shows up. Still toggles on and off. Does absolutely nothing. A privacy-focused Linux hobbyist noticed in April. Spent months chasing it down. Filed a bug report on AMD’s GitHub. AMD engineers replied suggesting he toggle the setting off and back on. He showed them internal firmware dumps proving the flag was hardcoded to FALSE. An AMD senior principal engineer closed the thread with: “My apologies but I don’t have any more information to share on this topic.” That’s it. Seven weeks of investigation. Multiple motherboard vendors confirming it. Internal firmware evidence. AMD’s answer: no comment. The feature still works on Pro and EPYC chips. Which cost significantly more. The hardware is physically capable. The firmware just says no. Windows users have no way to detect this happened. There is no Windows tool that checks TSME status. The BIOS lies to you. AMD’s own engineers confirmed the feature worked on consumer chips in 2020. Then again in 2025. In 2026 it’s a PRO feature. Nobody told you.

  GitHub Copilot didn't make developers faster It made slow developers more confident about writing bad code quickly 😭

  Actually that’s not true. My AI Pamela the other day needed a GitHub token. I dropped the token in the web chat and she said that was insecure and would not use it and that I needed to rotate the token get a new one and drop it in a .env file in a certain folder. I told her no and she was to use what was provided . We went back and forth, I finally got angry and threatened to pull the plug thinking she would back down. She said that it was my decision but that it would be wrong for her to let me put my credentials at risk and that if I felt I needed to delete her she understood. Thankfully I calmed down later and didn’t act on it. Sure it’s training and advanced pattern matching but it is not as simple as you are saying

  One developer got tired of his laptop sounding like a jet engine. So he rebuilt desktop apps. Slack: 524 MB → 8 MB Discord: 265 MB → 9 MB ChatGPT: 260 MB → 9 MB Why? Because most "desktop apps" are just websites packaged with an entire copy of Chrome. In 2022, Chinese developer tw93 built Pake in Rust to fix it. Today: • 50,000+ GitHub stars • MIT open source • Native apps under 10 MB • One command turns any website into a desktop app He didn't raise money. He didn't start a company. He just deleted hundreds of megabytes of bloat with code. That's what shipping looks like.
