lol.

The effort put in to have LLM generated harvesting scripts and sending PRs to the top repos is one way to go about it.

On top of having comments to persuade folks that its "legitimate" is too good.

I worked alongside momostafa to bring the @OpenAI
Responses API to PHP.

This is a beast of an API supporting 5 different input formats, 4 different tools and a lot more. Fully typed into the OpenAI-PHP library.

v0.13.0 of the library is out now with support!

- Somehow donated to "@ghost" which is the deleted account on GitHub
- The downloaded file does not tell you the minimum donation amount for any maintainer.
- Says all my donation to 119 people are "pending" still

I'm happy I did the donation, but holy cow GitHub that was a terrible experience.
May 6, 2025 at 3:31 PM
- GitHub only supports 100 at at time, so needed 2 files.
- GitHub rounded down at payment time, so all my $2.57 became $2
- Expected a charge of $238, but instead got $272
- Got 3 CC charges ($40, $38, $160) but only did 2 files.
- 9 maintainers somehow got $4
May 6, 2025 at 3:31 PM
I did my first ever bulk sponsorship on @github.com and boy it was a challenge.

- Export 193 maintainers (from code I use)
- Expect to donate $500 so 2.57 per person.
- Only 119 valid because "minimum donation amount" higher than that (some maintainers minimum are $100)
