But GitHub's postmortems are usually related to internal rollouts rather than traffic load

This is a massive commercial product with a serious issue (everyone knows about the flickering) that hasn't been solved for months now. I don't think leeway is warranted.

But my work's VPN is in AWS, and HN and Reddit are sometimes helpful... Not sure what my point is here tbh. The internet sucks and I don't have a solution

... to live, not work. I can't edit comments from Harmonic.

There's no garage, and the only driveway-facing outlet is at the front door - opposite where my parking spot is allocated (an extension cord would have to go under/through the land…

I would love to have gone electric (bought a car in September) but I rent and don't have any way to charge at my residence. How do we solve the renters-that-cant-charge-their-cars …

The other option here is "pick an OS and when necessary install newer packages from source." We've been doing this for a long time at my current workplace (for dev containers) and …

> You did mention in another reply that only certain root apps can do [what we expect]. Is there a link where I can learn more about that? Actually in the same comment I replied to…

> Android does provide a WiFi suggestion API [1], but it has several limitations and doesn’t behave quite as expected. Can you expand on this? I read the linked doc, and it looked …

I guess the question is "why generate a QR code rather than just connect?" > You can instantly connect using Google Circle to Search or Google Lens. Is there something special abou…

Just to add some (unprovoked) additional info here: I'm a 26 year old Canadian. We covered early Canadian history, abuse of the aboriginal peoples of Canada, war with America, and …

Similarly, I globally exclude `*.tmp`. I can pipe logs or anything else to some `example.tmp` and never worry about checking them in.

We are multi-cloud, multi-region, multi-environment, multi-deployment with hundreds of AWS accounts. This is split over hundreds of microservice repositories, each of which maintai…

It would be a tough sell for my org to triple our license spend on GHEC just so we can teach a bunch of folks new software.

We ran into this, informed our users to reinstall Docker (we use Homebrew), and seemingly have had no further issues. I guess we're the minority? I would be more inclined to blame …

Will Anderson, another Scrabble champion/grandmaster, uploaded a video talking about Nigel's win here. The win is a lot more impressive than memorizing bingoes - Spanish scrabble h…

We do development/builds in containers to make things easier on the devs. These are the Python build containers, so we have to rebuild every time there's a new version of Python or…

I regularly build images where we install Python from source, which makes 30m seem quite normal...

> I'm more inclined to invest time in git itself. This is fine until you're working with hundreds of other developers. I believe the reason solutions like this exist is to abstract…

GHES is a massive monolith running dozens (hundreds?) of services in Nomad, so it's not surprising to me that GH has a hard time supporting it and wants folks to move away from it.…

We have looked at GitLab in the past, but I wasn't involved in that process. Generally though: - Enterprise support is very important to us - Migrating thousands of repos and train…

I run an on-prem GitHub server. New features come 6-18+ months behind Cloud for the most part, our reps are always trying to get us to move to Cloud, and new features are often bro…

Yeah. I had the beginning of some thought about C vs assembly, but that is already well discussed. This seems like another iteration of that topic to me. It has inspired me to try …

Does anyone here have any experience with having an entire org of (hundreds of) devs use these lower level features rather than Docker et al? In a k8s-centric organization, is this…

Past 99%, what does "more accurate" mean? I think it will vary from person to person and use case to use case, which is why I personally don't foresee a world where an LLM or any f…
