As someone who has had to deal with legacy C++ compilers from multiple platforms, I didn't have the luxury of dropping compilers I didn't like but instead had to program to the lowest common (working) denominator of those frontend

My experience is the opposite. Gitlab has a lot of features but they are all half-baked. Ever time I try out a feature, I feel like I get bit for doing so. A couple of cases - At first child pipelines couldn't access artifacts from t

Recently ran into this. So far I've landed on `setfacl` - `--user` didn't work for me because there were root permissions in my image - I didn't dig into why `userns-remap` didn't work - I didn't give https:/

The main reason I've heard of people using tools like this is so people can review a commit at a time (a lot of review tools don't handle this well) and CI runs on each commit. Generally, it sounds like people are simulated Phab w

Ran into permission issues with Docker on Linux and found this useful. I ended up going the ACL route. To make the ACL recommendation more universally applicable, I'd recommend changing setfacl -dm "u:alexandros:rw" ~&#

I'd phrase it slightly differently. We can and should fix things in response to CI failures. The problem is more so the cost/value trade off for developers. The lower the perceived value is, the more good will that will be lost

Several parts read strangely to me > we are very sorry that the method used in the “hypocrite commits” paper was inappropriate This reads more as "sorry you were offended" than "It was inappropriate and we are sorry".

To make it easiest on review, I do fixup commits (commit --fixup <sha>) and then clean them up at the end. If the conflicts are too messy, I don't rewrite. I have a check to prevent merging with fixups present. Id love it if that

I will say that one aspect of "written in Rust" is the combination of a high performance language (giving more head room for adding features) and a great packaging story (so you can build on the shoulders of giants, like burntsush

Anything in CS can be generalized to its purest, most theoretical forms. The question is how usable is it and how much work does it take to get anything done. See - https://danstroot.com/2018/10/03/hammer-fac

Alternatives are only useful when adding to the conversation. Otherwise it comes off as tasteless promotion. One example of a way alternatives add is comparing how the new release stacks up with alternatives.

What is breaking backward compatibility? Using new python features? Using new C features? Bug fixes? To have any sanity as a maintainer, you have to draw the line somewhere.

What if, instead of Rust, they adapted C99 or newer which is not supported on all obscure platforms. Should they be shamed for using the quality of life improvements that make it easier to maintain the project because someone used their pro

My problem with pip-tools is that it only resolves requirements.in files for your existing platform (OS + Python version). Say I'm testing something in CI for a bunch of platforms, that means to lock my dependencies I need all of thos

Its not clear cut what all is included with semver. Is switching from a C89 to a C99 a semver-breaking change? Is using a Python 3.1-specific function a semver-breaking change? Is fixing a bug or adding a new feature a semver breaking cha
