With regards to commits, I think it’s better to _not_ worry about making them nice. I think time is better spent making the PR description clear.

Make as many commits as you want, just “Squash and merge” at the end using your pull request body for the commit message.

Hello HN,

Kodiak is an open source GitHub app that can update, approve, and merge pull requests.

At work we were getting frustrated waiting for CI to merge pull requests, so I built Kodiak to automate this tedious work.

With Kodiak you don't need to wait for CI checks to finish, you simply add a label and Kodiak will merge your pull request when ready. It's super helpful when you have long running CI or "Require branches to be up to date before merging" configured via GitHub branch protection.

It's really simple to get started: https://kodiakhq.com/docs/quickstart

A bit of shameless self promotion: I built a more basic merge bot for GitHub that efficiently updates and merges PRs because we were wasting a ton of time keeping branches updated at work.

It seems that MUMPS doesn't have serializable isolation.

TablePlus supports Postgres/MySQL/Sql Server and others. It has a paid version which adds a few more features, but the free version works fine for me.

How did you handle upgrading between major Postgres versions with Docker when the container only has one version (you need both for major version updates)?

There is an issue about this (from 2014), but it has yet to be resolved: https://github.com/docker-library/postgres/issues/37

You still need an Apple developer account to sign and run an open source extension

I was taught in ~5th grade that you can trust a ".org, .gov, or .edu" website when looking for sources. (This was in a Massachusetts public school)

I'm curious. Why do you say this would make cheating easier?

This is also available as a third-party filter for uBlock. No greasemonkey necessary.
