Hey all, I'm trying to transfer my playlists from spotify to Tidal and not have to pay for a subscription to do so. I found this posted in another reddit thread however I have no clue what I'm doing and how to download it. Anyone able to help out please? Lmao
Basically title, i'm not downloading the file, just opening it through github's own pdf viewer. It might be a very stupid question but i don't have much experience and just want to be sure,

Hello, I forgot 2FA because my main mobile weirdly signed out of its own. Is there any way to recover my GitHub account other than SMS and 2FA or am I just screwed? Thanks🙏
Good day guys! I just recently got my GitHub Copilot licensed using the GitHub Student Developer Pack. I registered using my school credentials. So my question is for how long does the GitHub Student Developer Pack last? Does it last for as long as I am a student in my school? Does it last for 2 years from what I've heard? Less? More? I just want to know so that I can save money so when I can purchase the pack again. Thanks again guys!
some people on this planet actually still continue to live after you leave the planet
Try to consider the other participants
You are fed up so you block everyone's ability to continue to keep the program running
How retarded are you to think that I will be able to communicate with anyone through forks that no one ever looks at
All repos has a root repo that should never ever be closed
I am so ducking sick of dealing with retards
We just open-sourced Lume, https://github.com/trycua/lume - a tool we built after hitting walls with existing virtualization options on Apple Silicon. No GUI, no complex stacks - just a single binary that lets you spin up macOS or Linux VMs via CLI or API.
lume run macos-sequoia-vanilla:latest
POST /lume/vms
)lume run macos-sequoia-vanilla:latest
brew tap trycua
lume brew install lume
You can also download the lume.pkg.tar.gz
archive from the latest release and install the package manually.
lume
exposes a local HTTP API server that listens on http://localhost:3000/lume
, enabling automated management of VMs.
lume serve
For detailed API documentation, please refer to API Reference.
HN devs - would love raw feedback on the CLI and whether this solves your VM on Apple Silicon pain points. What would make you replace Lima, UTM or Tart with this?
Repo: github.com/trycua/lume
Python SDK: github.com/trycua/pylume
So I basically tried to sign up for Crowdin, but it seems to be reading the wrong email address - it's not reading the one I specified in my GitHub account. Are there any solutions other than creating a new account?
Hi. I was trying to add ssh keys to my github actions for continuous integration but it always overrides my server ssh into blank. Upon checking, the values on my secret keeps nulling or empty. Is there an issue I am missing credentials (Im repository owner) or just skill issue? :(
Anyone use GitHub desktop on MacBook and know how to fix the .gitignore file changing in a gitignore.txt file? Because every time I try to follow along in class the gitignore simply doesn’t work on my Mac because it turns in a txt file and it leaves me like 20k+ things in my repository that I can’t submit.
Hello everyone, I would like to say that it is a pleasure to be here, I will go straight to the point, I am a college student, I have one year total of actual coding experience, I am looking to enhance my github profile as much as I possibly can.
Looks like this job market is absolutely weird, wacky and straight up unfair, besides being in college all I see is job postings for masters or phd's. (and somehow the people they eventually hire don't even know how to code)
I do understand that we are meant to have amazing projects and everything if we do want a job in such field, however Im feeling very overworked. I have lots of projects but all of them falls short to one small detail, I can't draw or do animations.
Yes thats right, my biggest problem is that I cannot draw, if I was able to I would do entire games on my own, my design skills are lacking, and it should not be a problem since my dream is to be a low level or backend dev, but it does take a tool on me when I cannot progress an idea since I do not know how to draw or design from scratch (most of my time is spent learning coding), it's a hard journey for me I feel tired and overwhelmed sometimes.
Here is my github, so any of you can give me some suggestions or what paths I can take in order to have more meaningful progress in my journey, I really want to learn, I really want to improve, I really love coding, and I know im meant to be here, but I need to eventually join some workforce to help my family.
I mean anyone can fork your website, and see source files. Then again you could easilly do same thing using "view page source" and copying code to your repo so, I guess if the files don't contain personal details it's ok?
Hey,
I completely lost my access to GitHub account and I would like to reset my email associated with it, in order to create another account with the same email. I wonder if by resetting GitHub email I can use my old GitHub username for the new account. Can anyone help me?
Thanks :)
Hello folks, so I am helping out my mom by making her a website where she can track the inventory for her sewing buisness. It's very simple, just an html page that displays a table, with the data stored in the same repository in a .json. when you click on a cell in the table, you should be able to edit it and update the data file. To do this, along with using github to host my website, I'm using netlify since I heard that was good for this sort of thing. However, I keep running into this specific issue, "Error in updateData function: GitHub API Error: 404 Not Found" everything else seems to be working, and I am unsure what the problem is. I've double checked my repo name and everything matches, my access token is still working and has the proper permissions, and all my files are in the right place. If anyone has any ideas what else I could do to fix this or troubleshoot, that would be greatly appreciated. I've used github for quite a few things, but this is really just stumping me.
As a precaution, I would like to move some non-public repositories to a git service that is not in USA but located in EU and owned by a company in EU. Has anyone here done it, where did you move it to, and what is your experience?
Edit: The goal is do have a commercial supplier that brings added value, but without USA in our internal formal risk analysis. So github and gitlab are both not viable options. And selfhosting is what we try to avoid.
Edit2: Obviously, a serious supplier provides EU GDPR Data Processing Agreement, a clear identification including company registration number and country, user management, good operations including uptime, cybersecurity and disaster recovery.
Hi! I'm new to nextjs, I have worked on a nextjs project with other people before but have never set up a nextjs project on my own. I tried to so today and keep getting the weirdest errors when I'm trying to push my nextjs project to github.
Basically it goes like this:
The 1st time I got this error, I tried removing it with the suggested command but that just caused more errors. I restarted the project from scratch and tried both doing the git init while I'm in "my-folder" and "my-app" but nothing works. One common error I get is "nothing to commit, working directort clean." and the source control in vscode doesn't pick up on any changes I make to the code or in my file.
The most I've managed to do is push the my-app folder to github, but it's empty (no src, node modules etc -- nothing you get with nextjs). I've also tried making sure my gitignore file is set correctly, tried googling my different error messages and searched different subs. No one seems to have this problem or a fix that works for me which makes me think I'm missing something very obvious. What am I doing wrong?
tl;dr: what's the correct way to push a nextjs project to github?
Hello everyone, I’d love to hear about how and why you use GitHub Gists. How does it benefit you in your workflow?
I've been downloading alot of files from GitHub. I wonder that are files virus checked? I haven't got viruses of any kind but am just curious.
hi all, i am extremely new to github and purely want it to show off my simple programs, in order to get into a good university. i have completed the tutorial on the website, but i still am not sure how i would go about just adding my existing projects to my page. any help would be much appreciated, thanks.
Will recruiters care about your username for GitHub when you link it in your resume? My username was HerzBoi recently changed it to my first and last name. I'm assuming my first and last name is more professional but does it matter. Thank you
I made a simple GUI library and it was very hard time. I enjoyed this project but zero stars on GitHub.
Now I'm losing my motivation to develop. But I really love this project. Where can I get stars for this small repository for getting motivations?
I already tried self-promoted post but ignored. I want to share my project and get more issues and contributes. Not just for stars.
Is my code useless? I want to help people in open source communities. Any suggestions welcome. Thank you.
Hi, I use VSCode and got copilot in December and then at some point I reached the copilot limit. It said wait till 31st Jan.
I did and then it said wait till 28th Feb. one day later and it’s now saying wait till March.
Any idea what’s going on here and how I can resolve this?
TIA
Hey everyone!
I am planning to start a GitHub Club at my university in India and was wondering if anyone has experience with the process Since this is my first time setting up a club I Would love to know what steps are involved in getting it officially recognized.
If you have started a GitHub Club or any student tech club, how did you go about it? Were there specific requirements, university approvals, or paperwork you had to handle? Also, if there are any India-specific guidelines or experiences, that would be really helpful.
I would really appreciate any advice from those who have gone through this before. Thanks in advance
