    I had a few different issues getting the CI broker working the way I wanted to (don't even remember what the issues were, but it had to do with catching patches) so wired up my own…

    I recently, for Rust targets reasons, have decided to punt GitHub Actions AND GitHub. Opted for Radicle. Had to figure out my own CI. Doc'd it here: https://revolveteam.com/blog/go…

    Ditto ( https://portal.ditto.live and https://docs.ditto.live ) uses them.

    The raw point is valid. Sure this a poorly edited article and lacks the best research - can we agree that like almost everything, we've engineered these things to be commercially s…

    That exists, it is just hidden right now. If my intent was to offer this up and a for-the-public-good I'd turn it back on. But like most of the other comments here, at some point i…

    Funny...I think posting here has generated a few clicks. Am seeing my background worker dying. :)

    LowEndInsight: https://www.lowendinsight.dev Basic analysis of open source software's source - for things like "bus factor". Started as a research project, probably going to die as…

    Show HN: LowEndInsight – a “bus-factor” risk analysis tool

    What began as a pet-project a few years back, an a start to learning functional programming with Elixir, turned into a bit of a research effort for CS students. I'd asked them what…

    Right, so the moral of the story centers on the target user of the CLI tool. If you're building something for the Elixir community - game on I suppose, though there is still the co…

    Absolutely both. But...the issue is packaging/distributing a CLI built with Elixir. Comparatively to building a CLI in something like Rust, there is a lot of overhead that comes wi…

    I like my Framework with Ubuntu. Wish it wasn't Ubuntu but everything works.

    Is there a Heroku-like service for any of the unikernels yet?

    Another interesting aspect of the PS3 is it was one of the first OTS device platforms that integrated hardware DRM.

    I worked on a DARPA project a few years before this - where we were using CBE as the core for a polymorphic processor (one with an FPGA attached to every IO). We were also gutting …

    So long Puppet, have some fond memories. Good luck with the OSS thing at Perforce.

    I loved nb! Until I ran it from a top-level directory and it committed an update to every git repo within that top-level. :D. Definitely operator error, but I learned my lesson and…

    This is awesome! Super appreciate the effort on this. One challenge I've had is the file-based concept. And it losing "shape" quickly. I taken a few whacks at something different a…

    I'm just a bit more "generally" curious. Is `git` being the _only_ DVCS a good thing? Not to say that `hg` or `darcs` don't exist, just that the hub on top of git has pushed us in …

    I did something similar, opting for the simplicity of the terminal and CLI with https://github.com/kitplummer/clikan - specifically for personal tracking.

    This would pretty much be true. While DHH's claim is to Rails, I wouldn't say he was really a Ruby community guy. Where _why was specifically about Ruby, and non-commercially aspir…
