See you tomorrow at @MLHacks and @digitalocean hackathon at Digital Jungle in San Francisco. Participants get @Cline credits, mentorship from industry experts, and a shot at $3,000 in prizes. If you're in the Bay Area and looking for something to do, could be a good time.

Damn... These photos from our trip to Mexico City are legit! Big thanks to the @MexicoTechWeek team for rocking the Product Summit and Buildathon last week.

Impressed by developers experimenting with the @cline CLI, showing it doesn't have to be a solo. @xor0110 paired it with Gemini to build an effective AI coding stack. Great post covering the setup and costs of running this workflow. xor01.substack.com/p/the-free-...

shipped some QOL improvements to the @cline docs this week. is not much but it's honest work.

chatting with Harry Roper and @Ricardorubiocc tomorrow to gear up for the AI Buildathon @ PLSX’25! We'll be diving into Cline to craft some projects before heading to Mexico City.

We’ve just been named one of the top agentic AI tools for VS Code by Visual Studio Magazine! Developers are moving from “assistants” to true agents tools that think, act, and build alongside you.

we had the best time at cline & wine and i'm so grateful to everyone who came out to @emergencecap last night! 🍷

we asked hackathon devs how they actually use Cline from “haven’t tried it yet” to “can’t code without it”. watch if you wanna see what they think

Massive thanks to the @nerdearla team for organizing another stellar conference and having @cline as a sponsor! Free tech conferences that everyone can access are priceless, especially with this quality.

chatgpt’s new study mode looks 🔥 love that it’s not just spitting out answers but actually guiding folks through the thinking. Curious to see how it uses teacher docs, adapts to different skill levels, and gives teachers real insight into student questions 👀 youtu.be/XDYilxy1dn8?...

fun news! I was laid off from Twilio. going to take this weekend to chill out, and will start looking for roles next week. if you or someone you know is looking for staff/principal level Developer Advocacy, OSPO, dev infra, or similar roles pass them along! reposts from tech folks appreciated <3

Having some fun with the take home projects from a couple of interviews. A little showcase of what I've worked on in the past for this opportunity.

I miss DevTips on youtube so much. I grew up learning to make website with his videos. www.youtube.com/watch?v=89_N...

Going through the process of looking for a new job is a very humbling process. You go out of an interview on top of the world thinking you owned it just to move to the next one and question what the hell have you done in the past 5 years and how you know nothing at all.

@vercel.com have you considered adding your Bluesky socials on the welcome email?

This comment made my day 😭

Taking some time to rebuild my portfolio with @astro.build and who ever designed the pedagogy for their blog tutorial should get huge props. Big fan of the progression tracker on the top right corner 👏

For this year's #MaintainerMonth, we’ve put together helpful resources, events, and goodies designed for maintainers like you. ✨ 20+ events and streams to join 🛡️ A special Security Challenge (with a reward!) 🎁 The new maintainer Partner Pack (full of discounts and freebies!) Find out more 👇

🚨 Another major round of #NSF terminations today 😞. Please report and encourage your colleagues to as well! We need this info to shed light on the damage caused, and to organize and advocate for science that includes and benefits all. airtable.com/appGKlSVeXni... 🧪

I'm confused, so Trump wants to implement AI in K-12 education through the Sec. of Education but wasn't he going to remove the Department of Education? Overall, I'm conditionally optimistic of using aI in education but I'm concern on how this will be implemented. archive.is/ef6Zn

On the past week been exploring with octocats and styles. I’ve always been a big fan of Leonora Carrington and mixing her style with an octocat feels so good. Very happy with the witchy feeling of it.

Heading to SIGCSE 2025? Stop by the GitHub Education booth at 105/107 to see how we're empowering the next generation of developers. Live demos, new resources and real-world coding experiences for your classroom. Looking forward to meeting you! sigcse2025.sigcse.org

Playing with @fal for the past couple of days and its so fun to create videos, images and audio with code in a few seconds. The video below cost 2 USD and ~2min to produce.

Remember when X/Twitter started charging a ton of money for API access to avoid bots… well guess it’s working great?

Back fully online after a couple of trips. Just had some of the best weeks of rest in India and will be working from Mazatlan through the New Year. Can’t think of a better place to be right now.

A new free tier of GitHub Copilot in Visual Studio Code. ✅ 2,000 code completions per month 💬 50 chat messages per month 💫 Models like Claude 3.5 Sonnet or GPT-4o ♥️ More fun for you Check it out today! Oh yeah, and we passed 150M developers on GitHub 💅 github.blog/news-insight...

India is looking real pretty this time of the year!

We're here as well 😘

TIL that, in a single git merge, you can merge more than one head (branches) and it is affectionately called an “Octopus” 🐙 merge.

I’m using Copilot for some KQL work and god damn! I was able to make a few graphs in minutes with no experience on KQL. Definitely knowing some SQL helped to make the right prompts but this was so cool!

🚀 Launch day! Thrilled to be part of the GitHub Secure Open Source Fund journey. Collaborating to onboard 13 ecosystem partners alongside the funders has been an amazing way to strengthen open source security by building on community expertise. Learn more: github.blog/news-insight...

So, if you’re moving away from X, the platform will send you a ton of notifications mentioning that someone posted… Literally zero value. 😒

I've heard some of the people who are getting involved with AI in the new government transition, and there are some very talented people involved.

It’s great to see again some developers that left X a few years ago because the platform was shadow banning them.

It has been refreshing to hear from education programs deprioritizing AI subjects and moving toward teaching fundamentals and computational thinking. It just makes sense. Learners with a deeper understanding of these subjects benefit more from AI tools than those without them.

Last week, I got to set a Día de Muertos altar at the GitHub office and talk a thing or two about it. First time I do something like this at the office and got to admit it was more fun than I expected

There was a part of me that truly believes can make everything work. In the past year, I’ve learned to say “hey this is beyond what I know/enjoy/want to do”. There is a very special relief from knowing what you can do but also what you can’t.

Never getting bored of this view.

AI tools like GitHub Copilot let developers spend more time coding and less on repetitive tasks, boosting creativity, learning, and autonomy. Especially helpful for beginners, it's changing how we work by making coding faster and more productive. 🔗 www.openread.academy/en/paper/rea...

There this hypothesis that AI code assistants are reducing the perception of computational complexity. Some research groups are working on this and it will be super interesting to see how this changes the nature of work.

I am super happy to share that GitHub is now a member of @orcid.bsky.social 💖 which will help us enhance interoperability between GitHub and ORCiD for scholarly use.

To be fair, one of the coolest things I do in my new role is talking with people that are making research on the frontier of knowledge and get mind blown about the work they do.

Why is everyone vacationing in Japan right now?!

Really privileged of having GitHub’s video prod team covering open science projects and orgs during GitHub Universe this year.

If you are looking for more GitHub skeets.. go.bsky.app/2u5t8wx

First time I give my @bsky.app account instead of Twitter for an interview and it felt like relief.

Just got the first pre-print paper to review where the data analysis was done via ChatGPT and I don’t know if we are ready for this future.

It was a privilege to attend the Open Science "Dynamic Convergence" workshop a few weeks ago. It would be great to see more private sector participants join and listen to what researchers are working on. doi.org/10.5281/zeno...

Getting all set for GitHub Universe this week. Updating my 2022 Badger this week with some details and new games :3

As non-native English speaker, using ChatGPT to review some docs and communication has been great to verify I’m having the right tone, clarity and grammar at work. I still write everything first and then edit with the recommendations
