GitHub帝国崩塌前夜:源码泄露、18年老粉决裂,微软失去1.5亿开发者

Abstract

GitHub正面临前所未有的危机。18年老用户、Ghostty终端开发者Mitchell Hashimoto公开宣布离开,批评平台频繁故障导致无法正常工作。近期,GitHub因持续技术问题引发花旗银行、英特尔等巨头不满,微软被迫向企业用户提供补偿。 更严重的是,GitHub内部遭遇重大安全事件:一名员工因安装恶意VS Code扩展导致凭证泄露,3800多个内部仓库被黑客入侵,核心源代码甚至被公开叫卖。此前还发现过可能危及数百万代码库的高危漏洞。 内部管理同样混乱。前CEO Thomas Dohmke离职后,微软取消了GitHub的CEO职位,将其并入CoreAI团队,导致高管和技术骨干大量流失。现任CTO推动的服务器迁移项目被认为是近期频繁宕机的主要原因。 在AI编程工具竞争方面,GitHub Copilot正被Cursor和Claude Code等后起之秀超越,后者提供了更先进的上下文理解和自动化编程能力。甚至有报道称微软内部员工也偏好使用Claude Code。 商业层面,GitHub Copilot虽然用户增长,但高昂的AI推理成本使其成为“补贴黑洞”,拖累了微软云业务的利润率。近期GitHub改为“按量计费”模式,进一步引发开发者不满。 随着开源社区信任消退、内部文化瓦解以及外部竞争加剧,GitHub这个拥有1.5亿开发者的平台正站在生死存亡的十字路口,其未来已成为微软亟待解决的难题。

GitHub,正在经历一场前所未有的大崩溃。

最近,全球开源技术圈迎来一场惊人决裂。

GitHub的18年老粉、著名的Ghostty终端开发者Mitchell Hashimoto发了一篇轰动全网的「绝交信」,字字泣血——

GitHub每天都在辜负我。

我希望它更好,但我更想编程。我已经不能再用 GitHub 编程了。对不起,18年后,我得走了。

如果一个平台每天都把你锁在外面几个小时,那它就不再适合做严肃工作了。

随后,Ghostty打包所有资产,决绝离开。

他的出逃,只是雪崩的冰山一角。

GitHub,生死存亡

近几个月,花旗银行、英特尔等巨头都因GitHub持续故障向微软表达不满。甚至OpenAI也开始探索自建方案。

微软为了安抚客户,不得不向企业用户发放大量Credits补偿损失,直接让利润血流不止。

最严重的一次事故发生在上个月:GitHub一个误触发的未发布功能,导致大量仓库「回滚」,用户近期代码修改直接消失,许多企业已经被逼迁移。

近八年前,微软以75亿美元收购GitHub时,全球程序员曾充满担忧。

果然,在度过短暂黄金期后,这个承载着全球超过1.5亿开发者、10亿代码仓库的「程序员圣地」,如今正以一种极其惨烈的方式,站在生死存亡的十字路口。

3800+仓库遭黑客「连锅端」

更有甚者,近期爆发的一场安全风暴,直接把GitHub的底裤给扒了下来。

2026 年 5 月 21 日,一条消息瞬间引爆黑客论坛BreachForums: 一个黑客组织竟公开叫卖GitHub的核心源代码,要价仅仅5万美元!

他们嚣张写道:

主平台的一切都在这里,我很乐意向有兴趣的买家发送样本,验证真实性。这不是敲诈,我们懒得去勒索GitHub。只要有一个人接单,我们就会彻底粉碎数据。如果找不到买家,我们很快就会免费公之于众。

随后,GitHub官方无奈证实:3800多个内部代码仓库确实遭到入侵。

这场灾难源头,竟荒谬得令人不可思议:一名GitHub内部开发人员,在其工作设备上安装了一款被投毒的恶意 VS Code扩展插件,凭证泄露后,3800+仓库失守。

VS Code和GitHub同属微软,本应是「自家生态组合」。但VS Code插件缺乏高强度审核机制,正好成为黑客的完美突破口。

因为VS Code会频繁提示开发者安装各种插件,这些「特洛伊木马」能肆意访问本地文件、系统终端等。

当GitHub的工程师下载了恶意插件后,其长期有效的个人访问凭证,瞬间被黑客截获!

对一家以「代码安全与托管」为立身之本的平台来说,源代码被公开叫卖,无疑是一记响亮的耳光。

这仅仅是冰山一角。

今年3月,安全机构才发现GitHub内部Git基础设施的一个0-day级高危漏洞。

如果被利用,攻击者可以直接无限制地访问全网数百万个公共和私有的代码库,造成后果将比这次恐怖百倍!

管理层大换血:不再设立CEO,沦为微软附庸

安全和技术事故频发的背后,是GitHub内部近一年的「无主状态」。

去年夏天,深受社区爱戴的前CEO Thomas Dohmke突然辞职。微软随后做出让所有员工震惊的决定:彻底取消GitHub CEO职位。

GitHub CEO Thomas Dohmke

Dohmke感谢大家:「GitHub拥有超过10亿个仓库和分支,以及超过1.5亿开发者,从未像现在这样强大。正因为你们不懈的努力,GitHub Copilot带来了PC出现以来软件开发领域的最大变革」

七年来,GitHub始终保持着「独立子公司」的骄傲。但去年夏天,它被并入新组建的CoreAI团队。

这一剧烈变动,直接把GitHub高管们推向尴尬境地:他们失去了和微软最高层对话的通道,被迫向CoreAI团队的掌门人、前Meta高管Parikh汇报。

然而,Parikh在内部极不受欢迎。正是他执意抹掉GitHub的CEO职位。

「这里基本上没有什么GitHub了,它现在完完全全是微软的一个部门。」一名资深员工愤怒表示,「管理层和技术骨干正在疯狂出逃。」

随之而来,就是顶级人才流失:前CEO Dohmke创办下一代开发者平台Entire,挖走11人;34年元老Julia Liuson离职;产品工程高级副总裁Jared Palmer转岗至Xbox团队;首席营收官辞职。

现任CTO Vladimir Fedorov激进推进将GitHub迁移至Azure服务器的项目,这一复杂的MySQL集群搬迁,直接导致了过去一年里的连环宕机。

至此,GitHub的研发、财务、市场被全面绞杀、吞噬,内部离心离德,技术骨干流失。

GitHub昔日引以为傲的「纯粹开发者文化」,正被微软官僚且强势的体系啃食殆尽!

护城河失守:Cursor与Claude Code降维打击

外部宕机和内部动荡,给捕食者撕开了巨大的裂口。

曾经,Copilot几乎就是AI辅助编程的代名词。

然而2024年,Cursor横空出世。GitHub Copilot还停留在「你写一行,我猜下一行」的代码补全阶段,Cursor已能通过理解整个项目上下文,一键生成整个模块。

2025年,Claude Code更是降维打击——不仅能写代码,还能自动化完成复杂排错、测试和多文件协同修改。

微软内部空前恐慌。据爆料,Jay Parikh在会议上面色铁青地警告:GitHub正面临「死亡威胁」。

Parikh的核心恐惧在于:一旦开发者习惯在Cursor完成所有开发,他们就不会再把代码上传到GitHub。

为此,微软曾认真评估收购Cursor,但迟疑了一阵,转眼Cursor就被SpaceX抢先下手。

更好笑的是,Claude Code实在太好用了,微软Windows和Office部门的数万名工程师,全员疯狂化身CC的死忠粉,微软高层彻底破防了!

Rajesh Jha向全员发布死命令,6月底强行收回所有CC许可证,逼迫工程师倒回去用GitHub Copilot CLI。

财务雪崩:越赚越亏的「补贴黑洞」

而且,GitHub的商业化运作也深陷泥潭,甚至开始反噬微软。

表面看,GitHub数据依然漂亮。截至2025年底,Copilot付费用户突破470万,GitHub年度经常性收入跨过30亿美元门槛。

但漂亮数字背后,全是微软出的血。

随着AI爆发,GitHub流量暴增14倍。但代码托管和开源项目的AI功能完全免费。

而运行AI模型的推理成本居高不下,重度用户消耗的算力成本远超每月10美元的订阅费——卖得越多,亏得越惨。

今年4月微软财报电话会上,CFO罕见承认:GitHub Copilot使用量大幅增加,直接拉低了整个核心云业务的毛利率。

面对华尔街压力,上个月GitHub宣布:废除包月畅用模式,全面转向「按量计费」。一旦积分扣光,AI服务立刻切断。

这一吃相难看的举动,彻底激怒了开发者!

全球IT服务巨头NinjaOne随即公开表态:正在全面引导工程师放弃GitHub,倒向Claude Code生态。

GitHub会不会死?

今年,微软股价已累计下跌超10%,在「美股七巨头」中表现垫底。

它的开发者生态基石GitHub,正把一切推向深渊。

为了摆脱对OpenAI和Anthropic的依赖,CoreAI已下令全面收集所有代码,训练微软自己的原生大模型。

这种为了自身利益疯狂透支生态的做法,让全球的开发者彻底感到寒心。

开源社区的信任、中立的生态环境、自由纯粹的开发者文化,正在这个75亿美元买来的巨兽身上加速消亡。

如今,摆在纳德拉面前最致命的问题是:在AI智能体时代,全球开发者到底还需不需要GitHub这样一个代码仓库作为中心平台?

如果微软无法给出令人信服的答案,它将失去耗费数十年才圈养在生态周围的灵魂——

「开发者,开发者,还是开发者!」

In Conversation with Ray Dalio: We Are Currently in an AI Bubble, with 1% of My Portfolio in Bitcoin

Ray Dalio, founder of Bridgewater Associates, warns in an interview that the current AI boom shows classic bubble characteristics, which could lead to significant economic downturns as seen in past cycles like 1929 or 2000. He explains that speculative enthusiasm, fueled by debt and overvaluation, often precedes a crash when rising rates or taxation force asset sales, causing widespread losses and recession. Dalio also outlines his "Big Cycle" theory, describing an approximate 80-year pattern where widening wealth gaps, massive government deficits, and shifting geopolitical power (like China's rise) create internal conflict and global instability. He emphasizes that we are in a late-cycle, transitional phase where traditional powers like the US and UK face decline. For personal wealth protection, Dalio advises diversification beyond cash into assets like stocks, bonds, real estate, and particularly gold, which he prefers over Bitcoin. While he holds about 1% of his portfolio in Bitcoin as a non-printable hard asset, he views gold as more secure from technological or governmental threats. Regarding AI's impact, Dalio believes it will disproportionately benefit capital owners, worsening inequality by replacing both physical and cognitive labor. He suggests that human intuition and emotional intelligence, combined with AI, will be key for future workers. On taxation, Dalio argues that wealth taxes are impractical and risk triggering asset sell-offs, reducing productive investment. He points to the UK as a cautionary example of debt, low productivity, and political strife. Geopolitically, Dalio foresees a more regionalized world, with the US showing weakness in prolonged conflicts like with Iran, akin to past imperial declines. The ideal outcome, he suggests, is coexisting powerful blocs (e.g., Americas, China-Asia Pacific) without major war.

Daily 7.2 Trillion KRW: Foreign Capital's Record Net Buying on Friday! Wall Street Says Headwinds for Korean Stock Fund Flows Have Subsided

South Korean stock market sees a dramatic shift in fund flows. On July 31, foreign investors made a record net purchase of approximately KRW 7.2 trillion in KOSPI stocks, marking a fundamental reversal from the persistent large-scale net outflows seen in previous months. This contributed to a significant narrowing of foreign net selling in July to KRW 9.8 trillion, down sharply from KRW 48.4 trillion in June and KRW 44.5 trillion in May. Simultaneously, domestic institutional pressure eased. South Korean pension funds and asset managers turned to a net buying position in July, purchasing KRW 1.0 trillion worth of KOSPI shares, contrasting with net sales in May and June. Market volatility is expected to be dampened by new financial regulations. Effective July 31, the Financial Services Commission tightened access for retail investors to single-stock leveraged ETFs by raising the minimum cash deposit requirement. Trading volumes for these products subsequently dropped to about 50% of their monthly average. Citigroup Research maintains its year-end KOSPI target of 10,000 points. The firm cites several supportive factors: the substantial easing of headwinds from capital outflows, a robust fundamental outlook for the semiconductor sector, historically low market valuations, strong economic fundamentals, and the potential for policy support from financial authorities if needed.

Thanks to Dice Rolls, Bitcoin Keys Are Stored Offline, But Not Everyone Will Do It

The article discusses using dice rolls to generate secure Bitcoin wallet seeds, providing entropy independent of potentially flawed hardware random number generators. It explains that each fair dice roll offers about 2.585 bits of entropy, with around 50 rolls needed for a standard 12-word seed phrase and 99+ recommended for higher security. This method gained attention after a vulnerability was revealed in some Coldcard hardware wallets, where a faulty firmware RNG (dating back to 2021) compromised generated keys. The analysis notes that while a dice-generated main seed was safe from this specific flaw, other Coldcard functions (like creating paper wallets, backup keys, or passwords) could still be vulnerable if they used the defective RNG. The piece argues that while dice-based entropy is technically robust, the manual process is error-prone, tedious, and unrealistic for most new users, who might make mistakes in recording or inputting rolls. It concludes that while manual entropy generation should remain an option for advanced users, the long-term goal is to develop reliable, user-friendly hardware and software that securely generates randomness without requiring specialized knowledge. Coldcard users are advised to check their firmware version and replace any secondary secrets (like paper wallet keys) created with vulnerable devices, while also considering multi-signature setups with devices from different manufacturers for added security.
