Or just run your own runners on-premise. You'd be amazed at how fast builds can be with OTS hardware, or even something like a laptop or Mac mini.

- joshstrange 2y agoI considered this for my personal business but the minutes are stupid cheap and to pay off a Mac mini it would take me many, many years to break even. For a company with 10's-100's-1000's+ employees writing code and needing CI/CD the math will be different. I came close to buying a Mac Mini anyways, costs be damned, to get away from GH's slow runners.
- dehrmann 2y ago> minutes are stupid cheap At smaller scales, as long as your builds aren't stupud-slow, cloud providers should be cheaper just because they can utilize their hardware more (10x?) efficiently.
- joshstrange 2y agoTotally agree, and I called out that my scale is small so cloud makes a lot more financial sense for me (especially as a solo founder, I don't want to manage more hardware than I have to already).
