Surely Rust will be better than both of these.

I don't think Gitlab does auto expiring of snippets, but I was thinking of adding `glsnip purge` to wipe the "clipboard" -- I may yet add it. I also toyed with making some kind of a `clipit` style clipboard stack with pushing

It uses TLS over Gitlab's REST API and registers all snippets as private -- I figured this would probably be enough for a first cut.

This is actually the main use-case for this. At work we have machines in different environments, but they all can see the self-hosted gitlab (although not each other). This just makes it easier to get bits of config or scripts from one envi

Odd you say that - I love Gitlab too! Most of my stuff is on Gitlab.com with syncs back to Github.com. This time I thought I'd try out Github Actions, hence the Github-first drop. I'll set up a Gitlab.com sync in a bit.

Or stump up for the Precision 5540 if you have the cash. That running arch and i3 and you are cooking with gas!

First World problems are a bitch! :) I haven't worked in a FAANG, but I've worked in wholesale finance for nearly 20 years, on both the buy- and sell-side. You can expect a lot more regulatory constraint, slower moving innovation,

Some strategies I've used previously in various consulting engagements: Cost+: how much did it cost you to build, and how much do you want to add to offset and then secure a profit from that outlay (taking into account the fact the you

Dogged persistence. Keep trying, don't be intellectually lazy. Ask someone else only once you've had numerous tries at solving a problem yourself. That, and a logical mind.

It's not only about skills, but supply-and-demand economics, perception, et al. Try to think about a sector, vertical market, tech or industry domain, or similar that is in high demand and build specialist, demonstrable skills in that

I've been using GitLab for a while, and just started learning Rust, so I thought I'd have a go at putting together a user-centric cli tool for Gitlab as a personal project. It's still under heavy development, but is now just

On the server-side you probably want some kind of transaction log or event sourcing / CQRS architecture... The idea being that you don't write directly to a persistence layer (database) but rather that you trigger events onto some

mostly productivity stuff: vim keystrokes, readline navigation, !bang queries in DuckDuckGo to documentation websites. The programming language and habits come through repetition and practice, rather than active memorisation IMHO.

I'd be cautious of changing root's shell or messing with its config. I once changed a root shell and then found I couldn't get in to fix a problem when my /usr or /var partition broke. I needed a statically linked s
