TIL you can view every issue/PR on the entirety of GitHub

@famfo Sisyphean pagination

@famfo huh, 2/3rds of all issues open right now have been closed

@famfo database queries are my passion

@famfo not open, created

@shroomie "This issue will be automatically closed in the specified period unless there is further activity."

@famfo lol

@famfo 0% of every issue open right now has been closed

@famfo@chaos.social That would also mean you could search the entirety of github and add a global github issue search engine

@famfo impressive that that page loads

@famfo@chaos.social BORN TO COMMIT
GITHUB IS A FUCK
Close Em All 1989
I am scrum man
109,043,564 DEAD PULL REQUESTS

@famfo @stux Wonder what the oldest open issue would be? 🤔

@catsalad@infosec.exchange @famfo@chaos.social @stux@mstdn.social
opened on Oct 29, 1999
https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues/799

@frost software has been stress tested, verdict: it works

@famfo im going to solve them

@famfo

@Baa @famfo I want this printed on a t-shirt.

@catsalad@infosec.exchange @famfo@chaos.social @stux@mstdn.social the list of oldest still open issues: https://github.com/issues?q=sort%3Acreated-asc+is%3Aopen

@famfo @catsalad jokes on all of us those are mostly dependabot PRs

@phillmv @famfo @catsalad you joke but out of the 71.5 million open PRs right now, 56.6 (79.2%) million are dependabot.
35% of all PRs are dependabot

@famfo Crazy (but probably not surprising) to see some traditional spam being posted onto Github issues when sifting through this issue list. Also how was this spam issue opened like right when I opened the page, the user was already banned and turned into a ghost but the issue is still there

@tay @famfo @catsalad i said the joke was on us, cos i knew this ratio as i used to be adjacent to the dependabot team 😅. curious how you deduced that without access to our internal metrics tho

@phillmv @famfo @catsalad > without access to our internal metrics

who said i didn't 🤫

no, but fr just https://github.com/issues?q=author%3Aapp%2Fdependabot+is%3Apr

@tay @famfo @catsalad you wouldn’t be the first gay furry, nor the second, nor the third lol to work here

@phillmv @famfo @catsalad i mean, aren't we all just gay furries deep down anyway?

@frost Fun fact this is what the Wikidot ban panel looks like. Good luck hunting for the person you want to ban or promote!

(without the userscript we wrote to fix this ofc)

@frost also the stress of “ban” being right next to “promote to admin”

@rgarner sorry wat

@frost @famfo missed an opportunity to have bisecting pagination

@joeyh @frost @famfo how does bisecting pagination work? keep dividing the page offset by 2?
