  🚨GitHub’s monthly commits just went from 1.4B to 2.9B in four months. • 130M pull requests merged per month • 24M new repositories per month GitHub says the surge in demand contributed to its recent outage. AI agents are no longer just helping people code faster. They are visibly changing how much software gets made.

  @PraveenPerera @github A leaked write token is a nasty reminder that repo access can become a supply-chain risk even when the end-user product is untouched. Rotating the credential is only step one - finding how it leaked is the real fix.

  Unpopular opinions about software development that might get me attacked 🧵 Most bootcamps sell the dream better than they teach the skill. Watching 200 hours of tutorials doesn’t mean you can code. Close YouTube. Open VS Code. Suffer a little. You absolutely can become a developer without a CS degree. The degree helps. It’s not magic. If ChatGPT writes everything for you, you’re not “using AI.” AI is using you 😭 AI probably won’t replace junior developers. Juniors who use AI well might replace juniors who refuse to touch it though. Knowing React and understanding frontend are two very different things. If JavaScript confuses you without React, there’s your answer. Nobody is hiring you because you collected 57 certificates. Build something. Your GitHub doesn’t need to be perfect. But completely empty while your CV says “Software Engineer” is a little funny. Developer portfolios need to calm down. Loading animation. Parallax. Particles. 3D background. Mouse effects. I click Projects and only project… Todo App.

  @arvidkahl One sleepy us-east-1 morning plus a locked Google OAuth login can take GitHub and Cloudflare DNS off the desk together.

  4/ He upgraded to the Claude Agents SDK and deployed on Modal. Modal’s batch processing spins up massive parallel containers for every single GitHub issue. Thousands of lines of custom code got replaced by a simple 200-line CLI skill. ⚡ #Developer

  @github @OpenAIDevs After the recent outage, GPT-4.6 Sol Max Effort quality dropped dramatically. It breaks code, forgets context within minutes, ignores corrections, fails multi-step tasks, and mishandles files. Yesterday it failed a simple Rich Text edit in an HTML table. May switch away.

  I have been a @github user since 2012. It has been my defacto repo for most of that time and used if for both of my previous startups and all personal projects. The last few weeks have been the most unstable I have ever seen. What's worse is the proper errors are not being reported so you think your agent is having an issue or there is some sort of other issue (CI failure) only to discover there is a GitHub issue. Then I add a check to see if there were GitHub issues before submitting PRs but there are issues so often that I have a dozen locally stashed PRs now. well i guess this means i now spend tonight setting up a local mirror (trying #Forgejo) that will sync with github to get my agents working again. Then i'll be working on building out my own code repo and CI in my cloud service provider and eventually migrate. Talk about a waste of a couple days.

  @0xMovez I stopped using my IDE about 6 months. Last project I used a combination of a LLM Wiki, GitHub Issues, PRs and a UAT test harness that the agent runs and I review afterwards. One wiki page per task or issue. One GitHub Issue , one worktree and one PR per task.

  I’m constantly switching between projects in @cursor_ai that use different @github + @vercel accounts. I turned the whole login/verification process into a /checkout rule so Cursor knows which accounts to connect to for each project. Anyone have an even cleaner setup for this?

  GALA surges nearly 30% back to €0.00163! 🚀 After a 15% drop from a 2B token panic dump on GalaChain, the price is bouncing hard. Devs successfully deployed the mainnet drain fix on GitHub and paused cross-chain bridges, freezing the sell pressure. $GALA
