I switched to it from chrome and never looked back. Tons of good features, really customizable, and (what seems like) a pretty sound business model (no crypto!)

https://github.com/grdl/git-get - for cloning, managing and organizing git repos. Inspired by the folder structure created by "go get".

Oh, and Starship prompt [2] too.

No mature organisation would expect engineers to be on-call continuously, 24/7. There are ways to have a sane, balanced approach to on-call. See the SRE book for one example: https://landing.google.com/sre/sre-book/chapters/being-on-ca...

This is the approach that works very well for me. Especially since I keep my repos cloned into a directory structure inspired by "go get" using https://github.com/grdl/git-get

Thanks, I'm familiar with the link you posted. You're also right that there's plenty of online resources about writing technical design docs.

However, what I'm looking for are not the articles about writing technical design but the actual design documents. Preferably ones that are considered well written by the community.

libgit2[0] has a comprehensive API and bindings for dozens of languages.

I also like go-git[1] - a pure Go implementation with idiomatic Go API and cool features like in-memory filesystem.

You're not missing anything. It does use GitLab's mirroring API. However, GitLab doesn't have any global mirroring settings, you need to set up each repo individually. The tool just saves you a huge bunch of clicking around and copy pasting auth tokens. Useful if you have a big collection of repos you'd like to mirror. And if you'd like every new public repo to be mirrored automatically.

I have created a small tool that automatically mirrors public repos from GitLab to GitHub: https://github.com/grdl/gitlab-mirror-maker

Meaning, a repo can be hosted on GL but still benefit from better exposure and disoverability of GH.

Can you share advice or recommend any resources on how to improve one's writing? Especially with regards to technical writing and communication in remote organizations.

Try HFT companies. I live in Amsterdam, we have a bunch of them here and I used to work for couple of them. Their business is extremely low latency so they live and breathe C++ (and also stuff like FPGAs).

But this is somewhat a niche indeed.
