Ah yes, lovely. That's what I want in my CI/CD...hallucinations that then churn through I don't know how many tokens trying to "fix it".

This is insane stuff. Why are they pushing this nonsense on developers when the real money is in surveillance and web indexing?

People like Nadella must think that developers are the weakest link: Extreme tolerance for Rube Goldberg machines, no spine, no sense of self-protection.

I'll cancel my paid GitHub account though.

Not confirmed that it's by Github, phishy domain.

Very weird of them to not use github.com but instead use the domain they otherwise use for non-github/user content. Phishy indeed, and then people/companies go ahead and blame users for not taking care/checking, yet banks and more continuously deploy stuff in a way to train users to disregard those things.

Why is it phishy? Github.io has been the domain they use for all GH pages for a long time with subdomains mapping to GH usernames. It’s standard practice to separate user generated content from the main domain so that it doesn’t poison SEO.

Correct.

First of all, any subdomain system domain is already a bit phishy because you need to somehow parse whether github.io is officially part of github.com and not say something like git-hub.xyz by a phisher or whatever new TLD there. These things are used by sysadmin/project pairs that can't budget 1$/month for a domain name, so it's 100% a security/price tradeoff.

Second of all, the actual domain host is publishing as one of these untrusted users on their alternate subdomain, so it could be a phisher using a subdomain of the official alternate domain with malicious material

Thirdly, even if it is all legit, it is still a problem, because it weakens security posture, it trains users to ignore domain names.

I understand if it appears subtle, but I wish that we lived in a world where whoever is responsible for this gets put on a PIP

How is it not confirmed? GitHub cannot use their own product? Them using GitHub pages changes something? I don’t get it

There's a lot of hate in this thread, but there are plenty of engineers chomping at the bit for autonomous workflows, because browser-use isn't there yet, and cloud expenses from major providers are also unappealing with so much relatively powerful local compute.
