    I totally agree. If one needs to put metadata in commits, usually better to just put it in a Git trailer. https://git-scm.com/docs/git-interpret-trailers `Co-authored-by: Alice` is…

    I understand forking is sometimes needed, but it's also somewhat discouraging to see that the differences couldn't be reconciled. As long as people are aligned on advancing the Rub…

    This is the part that I think most politicians simply don't understand. I've been trying to argue this point with my government several times (some MPs even replied friendly, so th…

    Does anyone working at Github know why 'semi-linear' merge isn't supported as a merge strategy in the merge queue (and regular PRs)? I Gitlab and Azure DevOps (also owned by MS) su…

    Does anyone know if immutable also means I cannot delete a release? (even after say 3 years) Because I'm guessing allowing deletes would also make re-publishing possible, which wou…

    For anyone who's interested, two other popular contenders for replacing Elasticsearch are Typesense ( https://typesense.org/ ) and Meilisearch ( https://www.meilisearch.com/ ). (bo…

    This would be very useful. Basically, the 'translate this' button you see on Twitter or Instagram next to comments in foreign languages. This API would make it trivial for all deve…

    I honestly don't understand the arguments Mozilla have against it. Safari/webkit is positive (though no official stance yet): https://github.com/WebKit/standards-positions/issues/3…

    This is not auto-translation. Rather, it's an API developers can use to add inline translation to web apps. For example, under a comment in your app, you can (a) detect the languag…

    On this topic, I have to recommend Hush! It is an excellent free, open-source and well-maintained app for iOS. https://oblador.github.io/hush/

    I guess it depends on what you read into it. But when I read this it seems like they are unhappy with Google no longer enforcing their view of fingerprinting: We think this change …

    Comment #42583875

    One thing that strikes me reading this, is that the only thing that's changed is that Google won't disallow it. But I think it would make more sense if the ICO actually just went a…

    I see it in the readme now, interesting! A question out of curiosity: Would you say that this is still a good fit for company-internal docker images? I.e. a packaged rails app that…

    I've started using Mise for some stuff at work. Haven't digged in a lot yet, but looks really promising. https://mise.jdx.dev/ It handles task running (wipe local test db, run lint…

    Not sure if this works with artifacts pushed to GHCR (Github Container Registry), for example Docker containers. I think not. But it's still a good step towards more integrity in t…

    Great, thanks! I made a mistake in my comments above: I meant to write "Would be neat if the *Linear* integration had configurable fields (at the team level set which ones are visi…

    Some thoughts: - Make the scrubbed headers configurable (if it isn't already). For example, our token header is called `X-Session-Token` and is passed on every request. Would your …
