Starting June 1st, GitHub Copilot will move to a usage-based billing model as GitHub Copilot supports more agentic and advanced workflows.
In early May, you'll see a preview bill experience, giving visibility into projected costs before the transition.

THIS GUY LOST $200 IN ONE DAY BECAUSE THE STRING "HERMES.md" WAS IN HIS GIT COMMITS
HERMES.md is a real convention used in AI agent projects. it's a system prompt specification file. not some obscure edge case
he's on claude max 20x at $200 a month. yesterday claude code hit him with "you're out of extra usage" out of nowhere
his dashboard showed 13% weekly usage. 0% current session. 86% of his plan was sitting there untouched
but $200.98 in extra usage already burned through what should have been covered by his subscription
he tried logout & login, different models, fresh installs and nothing worked
anthropic support sent the ai bot (four rounds of the same scripted response). eventually they just gave up on him
so he started binary searching repos and commits manually on his own time until he found the trigger
the string "HERMES.md" in a recent git commit message
uppercase, with the .md extension, anywhere in your commit history
that's it
claude code includes recent commits in its system prompt and something server side flags HERMES.md and quietly routes you off your max plan onto API rate billing
> AGENTS.md? fine
> README.md? fine
> HERMES without .md? fine
> lowercase hermes.md? fine
> uppercase HERMES.md? you're getting charged API rates
he reported it. anthropic support acknowledged the bug three times, called it an "authentication routing issue", thanked him for finding it
then refused to refund the $200
so the man pays $200 a month for max, lost another $200 to a billing bug they confirmed, did anthropic's QA work for free on his weekend, and got a "thank you for your patience" in return
check your commit history before claude code quietly drains your account too

@trq212 @om_patel5 coming from a company that keeps telling everyone that software engineers are gonna be replaced
English

@om_patel5 ugh sorry this was a bug with the 3rd party harness detection and how we pull git status into the system prompt
we're reaching out to affected users and giving them a refund + another month of credits (in this case another $200)

Elon Musk is the planet’s richest person by far, worth $839 billion as of Forbes’ annual World’s Billionaires list. He also ranks among the least philanthropic billionaires.
Sure, Musk has transferred $8.5 billion of Tesla stock to his charitable foundations (1% of his net worth)—but nearly all of it is still sitting there idle. Only an estimated $500 million, or 0.06% of Musk’s vast fortune, has ever been disbursed to those in need.
His lack of giving raises a question: What would our billionaires ranking look like if the world’s most generous people had never donated a dollar to charity? forbes.com/sites/mattduro…

In January 2025, we committed to generating 10GW of compute and have already identified over 8GW of that. Now, we're planning for 30GW of compute by 2030. A milestone that scales with the rapidly accelerating demand for intelligent systems.
