> Why did you log in again with github?

Sorry I'm somone else but I'd just go and assume it was because they are human, not a terminator, and their eyes do not have an integrated HUD talking with GitHub's backend with status indicators showing each currently authenticated account??? You want this kind of correctness you have to write software in Rust or something. "You're holding it wrong" lol

It's a bog-standard oauth2 authentication flow. I'm positive GitHub showed OP the list of permissions that this sketchy third-party app was requesting, and OP granted those permissions.

Yes, you are supposed to read the dialogs. OP really got got, and that sucks. But it's literally why that permissions checklist step - that they ignored - exists.

And they're a bog-standard human. Very buggy, get all kinds of tired and sleepy and drunk and high. I don't have the patience to be terrorized with some dumb ass permission lists when I want to access something. My brain is there to process the experience of eating tasty food and making children with an another human or whatever, I'm not an API. Just ask yourself if the UI would confuse your demented grandmother, if it would then it's shit and I hate it. oauth, shmoauth, who cares?

If the same happens to me I'm positive I'm /punching the screen, locating whoever set that bullshit up and taking a dump into their physical mailbox./

None of those things are an excuse. The dialog is there as a gateway to protect your data and GitHub's platform from the third party. If you're not going to review a clear dialog describing the permissions, then there is nothing that GitHub can do, other than decide that you cannot be trusted with this responsibility.

Also, drunk and high? You chose to be in those states. If you can't make the decision correctly in whatever state you currently are, then shouldn't be making decisions in that state. Take some responsibility for yourself.

All of those things are an excuse. The dialog is dumb and annoying. And excuse me but who are you exactly to tell what I can be trusted with? What responsibility? I'm not responsible for shit, it's a dumb website with bad UI and if I close my eyes then it disappears, that's how irrelevant it is to my life.

I don't really believe you "choose to be in states", what an absurd way to think about the behavior of hairless apes. Sorry but I will continue having the illusion of making decisions in whatever state I please. What now?

Maybe have some kids or smoke a joint because you're going to end up in a looney bin with this kind of expectations towards your fellow idiot humans

> Maybe have some kids Got those. I teach them responsibility for their actions.

> smoke a joint Done that. Didn't use it as an excuse.

> What now? Consequences don't care about your defiance. Nor should GitHub or whatever party has to deal with you.

Normal people make mistakes. Decent people care about limiting the damage to others. Assholes blame everybody else and deny all responsibility.

That doesn’t mean the inverse is true though: “if someone else is to blame you’re an asshole.”

Many things are untrue. Including "if someone else can be blamed, I am blameless".

But that's getting a bit off track. I responded to the attitude where someone should not be expected to read a simple and clear dialog because they were a hairless ape that could be drunk.

> someone should not be expected to read a simple and clear dialog because they were a hairless ape that could be drunk

FINALLY you said something reasonable :-D I'm sorry for being an idiot, I wanted to give a different perspective, I guess I'm passionate about nice and human UI. What happened to OP is what I call a Huge Dick Move. I will defend them to the grave because I like to cut people a big big piece of slack. Because yeah they could be drunk, or just tired, which is cool, you know.

What's not cool at all though is so called "engineers" ebgineering shit like OP described which makes me ashamed of my profession everytime I watch my grandpa painstakingly wade through crap like this all the time.

I will cope, I'm a dev, many people will not and there goes their UX. Straight to trash \o/

I don't want to get absolved of my responsibilities or whatever, I want UI that doesn't suck dick and ideally doesn't star 500 repos by itself

>You were already logged in. Why did you log in again with github? Because it asked you to, and promised you more rewards if you did?

when was i already logged in? there was only 1 action of "sign in with github". thats it
