We are investigating unauthorized access to GitHub’s internal repositories. While we currently have no evidence of impact to customer information stored outside of GitHub’s internal repositories (such as our customers’ enterprises, organizations, and repositories), we are closely monitoring our infrastructure for follow-on activity.

@hiarun02 Turns out ‘2,500 engineers’ looks a lot better in a pitch deck than ‘me and my AI did it’…. but seriously, scaling, safety, and keeping the models from going off the rails still takes a lot of humans.

Outsource the work, not the wisdom.

you can outsource your thinking
but you cannot outsource your understanding

@systemdesignone AGI doesn’t need to trick you. It just optimizes past your intent, silently rewrites your own logic, and you'll never know because the commit history looks clean. Good luck debugging that.

@Tech_girlll Explaining to your family what you actually do for a living. “So you fix computers?” 😩

Claude Code's desktop redesign signals something:
- Traditional dev team scaling
- Parallel agent-powered development

The app architecture picked a side.

Which side are you on?

The real question is which one's your bottleneck. Losing customers faster than gaining them? Features. Strong retention but can't get enough eyeballs? Marketing.

When growing a SaaS,
what’s the priority?

* Features
* Marketing

The debugging trap isn't inevitable - teams that establish clear specs before letting AI write the code tend to keep the speed wins without the debugging tax.

[Nandkishor @devops_nk]

Before AI:
- Coding: 3 hours
- Debugging: 1 hour

After AI:
- Coding: 3 minutes
- Debugging: 1 week

Q3 AI deployments fail on infrastructure, not intelligence. Rate limits and schema drift kill more production agents than model accuracy ever will. CTOs: monitor APIs, not just benchmarks. #AILeadership #TechStrategy

[Mustapha Derzi @MCT4U]

@landforce yeah, for practical purposes, anything Cowork does, Code can do. Not the reverse. Cowork is really just the non-dev-friendly wrapper at this point

[Mustapha Derzi @MCT4U]

@BacLeodiv Bro to bro… it’s even crazier when Claude code @claudeai builds it and still nobody uses it 😅

[Mustapha Derzi @MCT4U]

@Tech_girlll All three, obviously. I’ll just stand in the middle like a true AI orchestrator while my agents attend meetings, write code, and collect paychecks. If anything breaks, I’ll escalate it… to myself. 😂

[Mustapha Derzi @MCT4U]

@sickdotdev And yet my bugs are still a wrapper over pure chaos

[Mustapha Derzi @MCT4U]

@joshcrnls It’s not really engineers vs designers. AI labs are building systems that learn from huge amounts of creative work and can unlock new workflows fast. Design-first companies have deeper intuition about real user needs. The winner will be whoever combines both.

@ClaudeDevs Back to 4.6 today - token limits in the 5hr session are still an issue. Thought it was fixed 🤷‍♂️

[Mustapha Derzi @MCT4U]

@nummanali Switching back for now - running into token limits again in my 5hr session. Thought it was fixed yesterday but looks like the reset issues are back.

[Mustapha Derzi @MCT4U]

@rezoundous Thought I was done at 100%… switched back to 4.6 today… then the team reset me back to 0%.

Back on Opus 4.7 high effort - this thing is DIFFERENT 🔥

[Mustapha Derzi @MCT4U]

@ClaudeDevs @bcherny Thought I was done at 100%… switched back to 4.6… u reset to 0% 😭

Back on Opus 4.7 high effort and crushing again 🚀

Huge thanks for this

[Mustapha Derzi @MCT4U]

@bcherny @jun_song Hit 100%, panicked and switched 4.6… then reset to 0% 😳 Back on Opus 4.7 (high effort) and it’s flying 🔥

Appreciate this update 🙌

[Mustapha Derzi @MCT4U]

OpenAI just killed AI democratization. GPT-5.4 limited to 'select few' users. The best models are becoming exclusive country clubs. Engineering teams betting on open access need new plans. #AIStrategy #TechLeadership
