#github has a new UI.
🔒 Semantic versioning promised: breaking changes only in major releases, deprecations follow predictable rules; docs and learning materials on #GitHub

RE: #Github, I created all new repos on
Post-mortem of the latest #GitHub incident
https://www.githubstatus.com/incidents/zkxwbgr0cnmx
Getting unicorns from #github again so I assume they are moving towards their famed Four Eights reliability. Time to find a non-github dependent task for the rest of the day.
Of course #GitHub is having an incident again right that moment I want to look up something to file an issue. 📉
#GitHub #agenticworkflow and #renovatebot.
In this post, I want to describe the problem when combining the two, how I tried to fix it, and the correct solution.
#GitHub Status: there was no downtime recently.
My mailbox: two hours worth of cronjob failures that disagree.
Was planning to roll out a bunch of upgrades today, after months of work, and planning, but #GitHub has other plans, well bruch it is then!
🎶 Oops, they did it again.

From time to time I take a look at Launcher314.
It is time for me to switch to Launcher 314, but so far didn't take the time to do the work itself.😇
(For me it is replacing the Nova Launcher homescreen that is full of trackers. 😵💫)
I saw today that bearinmindcat is very serious about bringing that app to other appstores:
- #Accrescent
- #GooglePlay
- #IzzyOnDroid
(IT is already available on #Github, #Obtairium and #Fdroid )

Whoops:

Oh, so #Microsoft explains that #GitHub wasn't down due to vibe-coding, but due to "a new peak" in traffic. So sorry to hear that, really. Who would have expected that would happen after they (checks notes) practically monopolized software hosting, and then started aggressively pushing for unethical technology that is killing the Internet. But don't worry, their best vibe-coders are now working on the ultimate prompt to make everything scale.

I wonder if they're going to tell us that an AI "slipped through its guardrails" and deleted the whole of Github.
#GithubDown #Github
You're absolutely correct! When you asked me to "clean up and archive some old data" I should not have sent the command "DROP DATABASE github.master" to the SQL server.
I'll make a note to ask before I do this next time.
This afternoon a couple of my CI/CD pipelines broke because a user deleted all their their public repositories from #Github .
I suppose many people are starting to be fed up with all what's going on with big companies stealing our code to train their #LLMs, or maybe it's something else... who knows. It's not like we have a single reason to be discontent with Github / Microsoft.
Anyway... I started reviewing all my projects to ensure that I mirror all my critical dependencies so I don't suffer the same problem again.

FYI, you don't want to get banned on the #Gentoo org on #Microsoft #GitHub right now, because vibe-hub is broken and I can only ban people but "something goes wrong" when I'm trying to see who's banned (and therefore I can't unban anyone).
Pink unicorns, as far as the eye can see.
#GithubDown #github
When #GitHub UI is so broken that you can't mark a pull request ready to review when merge status can't be loaded, so you need to actually do that via API.
#Gentoo took the next step and disabled creating new pull requests for GURU on #GitHub. The existing pull requests will be left open and hopefully eventually merged; new pull requests must go to #Codeberg.

Congratulations. Now I'm actively worried to open a PR fixing my issue, because there's already been a few #slop PRs opened attempting to fix it. And I'm literally worried that mine would be taken as another slop PR…
#NoAI #NoLLM #FreeSoftware #GitHub
Oh, great. So apparently #Microsoft decided to add "#Copilot Pull Request Reviewer" to my "Authorized #GitHub Apps", behind my back.
If you need to check quick: #NoAI #NoLLM
