Just make the repo private?

Having worked there around 2020-2021 there were many folks not happy with being forced to use azure and being forced to build GitHub actions based on azure devops. Lots of AWS usage still existed at that time but these days u bet it’s mostly gone.

Why is it “ugly”?

The concepts that htmx has been built on have been around forever. Maybe that’s what they meant.

Back in university I took a course in legacy programming. We did a project in each of Fortran, COBOL and Ada. I enjoyed Ada very much. The module system made a lot of sense to me and the compiler found a lot of mistakes (compared to C). Thanks for sharing this article. It brought me back and makes me want to give Ada another go now that I have 10 years of real world experience.

Not the OP but we could mention that time where he called a hero a pedophile or when he bought twitter to promote free speech and then banned anyone who said negative things about him. No one human should have 260 billion dollars and be thought of as a good person unless they do a ton of philanthropy.

Off topic but I really enjoy the lofi website design!

In case anyone is interested I made an online toml syntax checker in the same vane as jsonlint.com and yamllint.com:

Not sure why this is down voted, I have felt negative energy from coworkers about this as well.

This is exactly how I feel about my side projects. Sometimes our day jobs are not exactly what we’d like to be working on so it’s nice to “putter” on a side project to scratch that itch. If someone else finds it useful one day that is a nice bonus but is ultimately not what drives me to work on it.

Even though features are half-baked I still think the future is bright for them, especially if GitHub slips up or gets complacent. Intel showed us that it is possible.

But ruby is too slow!

Redis is not simply a cache. It can be used as one but it supports many other data structures and use cases beyond that.

Another pitfall I have encountered is the lack of a true ephemeral agent runner solution for running the actions runner agent in your own infrastructure. The way it works (the last time I checked) is when you register a worker as "ephemeral: true" it automatically deregisters itself from your runner pool and kills the agent process when a job is completed, but it is up to you to clean things up. This leads to somewhat hacky scripts to delete the compute instance after the agent process exits. There is also no officially supported kubernetes controller for creating ephemeral agents but the community created one [1] is often mistaken as an official github project.

You’re comparing heckling a persons funeral over their sexual orientation to heckling a pedophile rapist. How do you make that connection?

Not sure how you’re hosting the site but the best way to fix this would be to have your web server automatically redirect incoming http traffic to https. Then it doesn’t matter if the link is http or https :)

Wanted to let you know HTTP requests are not automatically redirected to HTTPS.

Love the idea for this, will be trying it out!

This looks really cool and should help me out when integration testing things are require an LDAP connection. For example setting up the Jenkins ldap connector in an automated test.

PS: I'm glad we no longer need to state in the title of a Show HN post "written in rust".

I like to think of it like music. For each Nirvana type band there needed to be many Pixies and Melvins type bands to influence them.

> Why yet another programming language?

'Because I wanted to' is a sufficient reason. Create all the programming languages you want and share it with the world!

There's also the benefit of "dog fooding" their own product that they're selling to customers.

Emacs and vim are supported!

Ruby, bash, go. Specifically we’ve been building stuff in bash using Sub (https://github.com/qrush/sub) which has been working well.

Yes I understand that. My point is until you configure it in that way it is not “secret” and the name of the object is a bit misleading, especially when first learning k8s.

I think calling it a secret when it isn’t gave it a bad wrap. The last time I looked at the documentation it didn’t even clearly describe that it is not a secure object (that may have changed recently). Why call it a secret when it is not even close to one? I guess thing-to-store-secrets-if-you-use-rbac was too long.

Wait until you find out that kubernetes secrets aren’t actually secrets but base64 encoded strings.

Here's the one I often use for Ruby. https://jhawthorn.github.io/curl-to-ruby/

Now that’s a well crafted feature announcement that speaks directly to their demographic without a bunch of marketing bs involved.
