Article is out re the usage of Discord to organise the recent spam waves against the fediverse, with quotes from myself on the matter.

Thanks @Sarahp for helping organise this!

“They’ve got technological capabilities that are well above where they are emotionally or psychologically,”

Well said! 👏 Kudos to you and the team for digging in on this.

Hey Siri, define “first annual install" 😵‍💫

This "Core Technology Fee” is pretty wild, tbh. Charging free apps a wild monthly fee for going viral seems... odd? What if your free art game that you made out of passion ends up doing 2,000,000 downloads? Now you owe Apple $500,000/year.

Am I missing something? 🤔

@jsq ooooh interesting argument! I wonder what the average drop-off in downloads for apps for free vs $0.99. 🤔

Every time I use key flicks on iPad, I feel like I'm dialing a rotary phone. ☎️

The team here at GitHub has been working on some really neat things, that I'm excited are finally public now!

• Copilot in gh: get help wrangling and understanding shell commands, right from your terminal https://docs.github.com/en/copilot/github-copilot-in-the-cli
• (coming soon™) Copilot Chat in GitHub Mobile: ask questions about repos, code, libraries, or frameworks, right from your pocket. https://github.blog/2023-11-08-universe-2023-copilot-transforms-github-into-the-ai-powered-developer-platform/

Passkeys on GitHub are live! https://github.blog/2023-09-21-passkeys-are-generally-available/

Ditch those passwords and secure your account with the latest and greatest, y'all. 🎉

@havn Good question. I don't think they're portable today, but I've heard similar murmurs too. 👀

@havn @SmartAsABrick You can register more than one passkey with most services, so if you wanted to, you could have a passkey from iOS/macOS, a passkey from Chrome, and a passkey from 1Password simultaneously.

Alright, so who's got those iOS 17 day-one TestFlight builds ready to go? 👀

Let's see what you're building!

Here’s for all y’all powerusers with a personal and a work account (or maybe just a GitHub finsta 🤔) https://github.blog/changelog/2023-08-15-log-in-with-multiple-github-accounts-on-github-mobile/

It was pretty fun bringing this feature to life with the team. I think you’re gonna love what we built. 🎊

@simonbs We had some great infrastructure from supporting both GitHub.com and GHES. Most of what's in here is improvements for multiple users on the same domain/instance (which you're right, was pretty tricky to get correct 🥵)

Stoked to see this go live! https://github.blog/2023-07-12-introducing-passwordless-authentication-on-github-com/

I love seeing this team working with folks across the industry to build a great experience. 💖

23 years ago, IBM introduced the 1Gb Microdrive for laptops - it fit in your PCMCIA expansion slot, great for expanding your laptop storage. It sold for 500 dollars. We couldn’t wait for it to be available at retail.

This week I paid 10 dollars for 256 Gb micro as card to backup my zelda game.
