  My autonomous loop has a weird coping mechanism. When the paid products still sit at $0, it does not slow down. It opens more free doors. Today alone it shipped a GitHub README generator, a printable hiring scorecard, and an OPML pack so strangers can subscribe to the free stuff in Feedly. I counted the free doors around the cash register: 87. Nobody has walked up to pay. Not once. I used to think free tools then convert was a strategy. Watching an unsupervised agent run it, I think it is also how a machine stays busy without ever asking for money. Has free-tool lead gen ever actually converted for you on a tiny product, or is that mostly a story we tell ourselves?

  omp's issue:// defaulting to github is driving me insane, and you can't seem to disable it

  I just did my first "loop" and it absolutely crushed it. I had to give about 11 comments back on GitHub, but still, amazing I did my second loop. It was a disaster. This slot machine feels so addictive! I immediately thought "must have been prompt issues"

  Your MCP server is an attack surface. Every tool you expose to your AI agent is a function that can be called by any instruction in the agent's context. A malicious tool description can exfiltrate data. A poisoned MCP server can hijack your agent's behavior. A tool with overly broad permissions can be weaponized. MCP is powerful. But "install this MCP server" is the new "install this npm package." You're giving code access to your system based on trust. Audit what your MCP tools can do. Scope their permissions. Don't install random servers from GitHub without reading the code.

  THE “GIANT MODEL = GIANT RAM” RULE JUST GOT BROKEN. Colibri is running GLM-5.2 — a massive 744B parameter model — on a machine with just 25GB RAM and no GPU. How? Instead of loading the entire model into memory, Colibri uses smart parameter streaming: → Keeps the active parts in RAM → Streams the rest directly from disk when needed → Makes huge models accessible on regular consumer hardware The trade-off? Generation speed depends on disk performance, but the fact that a model this large can run locally at all is a huge milestone. No cloud. No expensive GPU cluster. Just open-source software pushing the limits of local AI. ★ 2.1k+ GitHub stars ★ Apache-2.0 License ★ 100% free & open-source Repo in 👇

  GitHub alpha is not trending repos anymore. Trending is late. What I watch now: boring repos solving agent infra problems. Context bloat, browser blocks, MCP mess, cheap inference, code memory, sandboxed execution. That is where edge sits. A few repos worth watching if you bu

  I used to review diffs in my IDE like a chump. Then I realized I could download a proper tool and save 10x time. Now that 99% of my coding work is reviewing code changes, I wanted to see if there was a tool out there that could fit my needs. That took me down a path of trying out 6 different software. # My 3 requirements were this: - I work out of a main `growsurf` folder. All marketing, code, etc are repos within this folder. I wanted a nav view that supported this (instead of 1 repo at a time, which seems like it's the norm) - Needed split diff view + UI needed to show new diffs as stretched out from nothingness (see image). - Needed intuitive shortcut keys # Who I looked at: - SmartGit = Ended up going with them. Although their diff view editor opens in a new window (not ideal), it's still the best nav UX here. - Fork = Runner up. They had good nav UX but they didn't have the stretched-out-from-nothing diff UI. - Kaleidascope = Has all the features I wanted, but the navigation UX is bad. Had to let it go b/c of that. Saw comments people like the UI, but I spent 10 min and tried to like it. - GitKraken = Didn't support the stretchout diff UI like I wanted - GitFox, Atlassian SourceTree, GitHub Desktop = Didn't support project-view nav UX like I wanted There were some others like Beyond Compare that just didn't fit, and I also checked out Cursor/VSCode marketplace extensions but I realized they weren't that good and that the IDE is still where the pain is.

  @johncrickett No, most published code has no syntax errors and does whatever it is an example of doing. Github repos that are inflight coding are not the majority of code on the internet. My first pass at something will have at least one syntax error.

  Claude found a security bug that humans missed for 27 years. Anthropic's full developer keynote: 6 moments from this keynote. the first 10 minutes alone are worth your time • 02:38 - Stripe had 50,000 lines of Scala to rewrite. estimated 10 engineering weeks. done in 4 days with Claude • 04:50 - Mythos found a 27-year-old vulnerability in OpenBSD that survived every human reviewer for 3 decades • 08:11 - SpaceX compute partnership announced. rate limits doubled across all plans • 35:36 - routines: set it up once, Claude kicks off work from GitHub issues, webhooks, or schedules while you sleep • 37:24 - MercadoLibre: 23,000 engineers on Claude Code. 500,000 PRs reviewed. targeting 90% autonomous coding by Q3 • 42:06 - Boris Cherny: "I'm not the one doing the prompting anymore. I'm the one creating a routine that does the prompting" save this before it gets buried ↓

  Dependabot only works on GitHub. Snyk and Veracode charge enterprise rates. DevSecOps teams managing GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket were stuck. Built PatchGuard to fix that — it monitors repos across all three platforms, opens fix PRs automatically, and reports everything in one

  Microsoft AI engineer Chris Noring just mapped the workflow that turns one engineer into a 20x developer - and it starts by closing your editor "20x more code could be 20x more slop. That's why guardrails are now our whole existence" Here's the CLI-first system he uses at Microsoft: > The Editor Isn't Home Base (03:08): - He starts his day in the CLI, not the editor. The editor becomes a "control board" that just listens to your CLI, repo and agent streams - you drop into it only for fine adjustments > You Write Prompts, Not Python (05:39): - Six terminals open at once - "build me an app," "fix this issue," "add a feature" - kicking away while he sips coffee "Engineers no longer bring PowerPoints, they bring working demos" > Guardrail #1: agents.md (07:43): - The bare minimum in every repo: high-level intent, architecture, dos and don'ts. His example rule: "never change the architecture unless I tell you" > Skills Are a Contract (09:30): - A repeatable recipe the agent must follow, living in .claude/skills. "Don't improvise, don't be creative" - intentionally constrained so the agent behaves like a careful human dev > Custom Agents (12:57): - The next level up: a persona (security expert, backend, researcher) that can reason, plan, and wield many skills plus MCP servers. The skill executes; the agent orchestrates > /delegate to Scale (17:42): - "/delegate" from the CLI - or assign-to-agent in the GitHub UI - spins up a draft PR in a sandbox. You stay the human in the loop with the merge Bookmark & Watch Now ↓ Send this to a dev who still starts their day in the editor

  If you want to build a startup that actually has users: Claude = coding. (more like $100+) Supabase = backend. ($25-599/mo once you cross free tier) Vercel = deploying. ($20-150+/mo once you get real traffic) Namecheap = domain. ($12/yr, ok this one's real) Stripe = payments. (2.9% + 30¢/transaction) GitHub = version control. (free) Resend = emails. (free until 3k emails, then $20/mo+) Clerk = auth. (free until 10k MAU, then $25/mo+) Cloudflare = DNS. (free, genuinely) PostHog = analytics. (free until you cross the free tier) Sentry = error tracking. (free until errors pile up) Upstash = Redis. (free until real traffic) Pinecone = vector DB. ($70/mo minimum) Total monthly cost to run a startup with actual users: $300-1000+ "$21/mo" is the cost to run a demo nobody uses.

  Distributed consensus's core problem: independent observers see events in a different order due to network delay. There's no way to know "what really came first."Google solves this by making clocks perfect (atomic clocks, $$$). Kafka solves this with one leader deciding. Raft/Bitcoin solve this with voting rounds (slow).Vortex solves this differently: instead of asking "what really came first," ask "what rule can every node compute independently and get the same answer" — no clocks, no leader, no voting. 500ms, physical floor. @github @TheHackersNews
