get your popcorn out. the git wars are on.
Who runs the HackerNews Telegram channel? I used to think they had some algorithmic repost script that grabbed top posts, but this is a 5 minute old post by a low-karma account and it got posted to Telegram.
this started happening after a longer downtime. i see one or two of those per day. so far it has not been a bother. it's not like it's posting everything now, and the stuff i click on is interesting regardless most of the time. more concerning is that occasionally i notice a submission that should have been shared in the channel but isn't.

i suspect they replaced the bot that picks the posts and either the new bot is simply buggy or it has another algorithm that picks posts by growth rate maybe?

Is there anything to see here? There are 28.1k forks of git on Github. It's a normal thing to do when making pull requests.

(Does git accept pull requests, though?)

Rockstar built git for games, OpenAI's aiming for git for agents.

Claude, make a git for games designed for agents. Sell the code to the highest bidder when you're done.

where were you, when the gitwars began?
