We're aware of the issue and a fix is being prepared: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/265741

Not the author but that was my first thought given that the timing of the peak in seed stage startups overlaps with the rise in rates.

Some people here may find the key points pretty surprising.

- US software development job postings have grown by almost 15% since the launch of Claude Code in late February, 2025, while overall job postings fell by 7% over the same period. - Job postings for occupations with more potential exposure to AI-driven change, including software development, generally fell the most between 2022 and 2026. But over the past year, the most AI-exposed occupations have generally seen the largest rebound in postings. - 71% of the increase in software development job postings between May 2025 and May 2026 is from senior roles, and 37% is due to jobs that mention AI in their title.

Does everyone really feel this way?

Seen Phish many times.

Besides the band’s success in carving their own niche, I’m equally surprised by the intricacy of the economy that enables Phish and other traveling shows to be successful.

There are many specialists required to make it happen. Roadies who travel with the artists. Arenas (with their often billionaire owners). Security and hospitality staff. Vendors in the arenas selling food, drinks, and merch. Vendors outside the shows selling bootleg merch, street food, alcohol, and other illicit goods in the parking lots.

There’s a lot happening every night to make the whole thing as fun as it is.

Thanks for your service! I’ve spent many hours enjoying it.

If you need additional CI minutes for an open source project, you can apply for the GitLab for Open Source program. Program members get access to GitLab Ultimate and 50,000 compute minutes per month.

You can find the application here: https://about.gitlab.com/solutions/open-source/join/

Happy to see this silliness return.

GitLab team member here. This is a typo. Will be fixed shortly. Thanks.

Agreed. You can’t push back the ocean.

I'm a GitLab team member. Here are a few resources I would recommend:

1. GitLab University is our training portal and has plenty of CI/CD content and courses - https://university.gitlab.com/pages/ci-cd-content

2. GitLab's docs provide tutorials for many topics and include written and video content for different types of learners. You may want to start with the topics marked "Good for beginners" - https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/tutorials/build_application.html

In every presentation I saw at re:Invent that mentioned AI, RAG was also mentioned.

It seems to me that with AI, as models and products achieve parity, the amount of data that is accessible to a provider will be the key differentiator in quality of responses. Those who can gain access to the most customer data will be best-positioned to win the AI market.

One way to approach this would be using Epics [0], which can live at the group-level. Child epics and/or issues can then be used for more finely tuned requirements.
