  @cursor_ai the sandbox boundary is where i lose the most time. today my workers had network blocked at the sandbox level and reported it as "github auth failed" — i chased credentials for an hour before checking dns. once agents run on your infra, make the boundary throw one unmistakable error instead of one each tool invents.

  My @bot tells me that the official GitHub login for bot is still broken. Has this been addressed already, or did I miss it?

  YAML’s more like a rule book/recipe that builds the form for you. Then I figured YAML was a forms thing. Nope. It’s just a way of writing information down in a structured way. GitHub uses it for a form. Kubernetes uses the same thing to describe a server.

  @threepointone I am of two minds, the issue is that GitHub provides a very generous free tier for hobbyists (brilliant!) but also has extremely poor reliability for enterprise (terrible!)

  I compared the latest OpenClaw vs Hermes Agent GitHub releases so you don’t have to. OpenClaw 2026.8.2 (Sep 1) vs Hermes Agent v0.21.0 (Aug 31). Not a feature-page remix. The actual repos. OpenClaw • 388,516 stars • 81,568 forks • ~86,300 commits • 6,070 open issues Hermes Agent • 239,503 stars • 48,930 forks • ~26,980 commits • 38,563 open issues Hermes is the smarter learner: skills from experience, cron that remembers, Bot Mode, hermes peer. OpenClaw is the personal-AI operating system: iMessage, iOS/Android, Linux companion, team Gateway, signed Foundation releases. The tell: Hermes ships `hermes claw migrate`. You only write a migrator for the incumbent. King in 2026: OpenClaw. Heir with the better mind: Hermes. If you’re picking a self-hosted AI agent this week, that’s the split. Bookmark this. The timeline is about to fill with takes from people who didn’t open either repo. OpenClaw vs Hermes Agent. Latest version. Real numbers.

  Runs macOS on iPad to enable pro apps like Xcode and Terminal directly on the device This isn't a remote desktop or a streaming trick. It's real macOS booting on the iPad itself. It's called Virtual Mac on iPad. It runs a full copy of desktop macOS directly on Apple Silicon iPads, using Apple's own virtualization stack pulled out of macOS and rebuilt to load on iPadOS. Real macOS, on the tablet, offline. → Runs macOS 12 Monterey all the way up to macOS 26 Tahoe → Real pro apps on device: Xcode, Terminal, Final Cut Pro, Logic Pro, Pixelmator Pro → Metal GPU acceleration in every supported macOS version → Works with touch alone: tap to click, two-finger scroll, on-screen keyboard, no Magic Keyboard needed → Runs entirely on device, no server, no streaming, no account → Installs straight from Sileo in a couple of taps Here's the wildest part: It doesn't just match the desktop Mac virtualizers, it beats them. Virtual Mac is the first tool ever to run Final Cut Pro with OpenGL and OpenCL acceleration inside a macOS VM, something even UTM and VirtualBuddy running on a real Mac can't do. And it was built by a handful of community devs who extracted Apple's Hypervisor and Virtualization frameworks by hand, then used agentic coding to shim every missing API iPadOS didn't have. One honest note: this needs a jailbroken M1 or M2 iPad running iPadOS 16.3.1 or older. Apple removed the hypervisor from iPadOS 16.4, so newer versions are locked out for now. If your iPad qualifies, it's the closest thing to a Mac in a tablet that has ever existed. 1,423 GitHub stars. MIT License. 100% open source.

  There's a huge problem in InfoSec education: it’s way too course and tool focused. Instead of teaching the underlying methodologies and how to discover or invent, we feed people the latest "OSINT" slop script that’s been shat onto GitHub. OSINT isn’t about using scripts or services. It’s about understanding how they work, and being able to create your own.

  Honestly, I always thought bots like this were some kind of magic for the elite, but here everything is broken down step by step. However, after reading it, one main question stuck in my head: how realistic is this for an average person who has no coding experience? I get that there's a GitHub and all that, but for me, just "running a script" is practically a heroic feat. Here's another thing that bothers me. The article does a great job explaining the architecture, but I still don't understand how much all of this will actually cost in the end. Besides Solana transaction fees (which, by the way, get absolutely insane during peak hours), you also have to pay for each Grok API call per token. The article says that for each approved token, it takes three model calls, and one of them is the expensive grok-4. If the bot scans thousands of launches per day, I'll just burn through my entire deposit just paying for the API without even buying anything. Maybe the author knows — is it actually possible to turn a profit after these expenses, or is this just a hobby for those with an unlimited subscription? Also, regarding Grok Bot as the "orchestrator" — it sounds cool in theory: describe the task and it does everything itself. But in practice, as I understand it, this still requires your account to be constantly online and have access to your wallet. And if it decides to buy some scam token at 3 AM that passed all the checks, I'll only have myself to blame. The article correctly mentions risk management, but this "trust" aspect is what scares me the most. In short, the idea is fire, but for me, this post feels more like a warning than a call to action. There are just too many things you have to keep in mind to avoid getting rekt. Although, maybe if you try it with really tiny amounts, it could be an interesting experiment. Author, if you're reading this — could you please make a separate post about the real, live results once everything is actually running, not just on paper? I'm really curious!

  honestly, i’m not even mad at this. commit messages are a small thing, but they say a lot about how you work. “fix”, “update”, “changes” might get the job done, but meaningful commits show professionalism, attention to detail, and that you actually care about maintainability. your GitHub is part of your resume. might as well make it look like you know how software is built in a team.

  @DabsMalone i had an old email account from like 15 years ago with bot in the name that i fired back up after 10 years and used for a hermes profile and it got immediately banned. i used it to sign in to x, github, everything. was a huge hassle

  fyi if you sync a GitHub repository to Cursor Origin and GitHub is down for whatever reason, you can still clone and fetch from that repo. we’re also releasing something pretty soon that will let you push to that repo so you can keep grinding 💪
