Out of curiosity...you mention fixing multiple releases at once (release/23.08 and release/23.09). in your example, are you keeping those older release branches around forever in git, or deleting them as soon as the release is mad

Can we please stop it with the victim blaming? This is the cartel's fault and no one else. I've never seen people as self-hating as liberal Americans. Only the English come close. I mean, it's great to be introspective and se

Whenever I tried "eating healthy" without calorie counting, I didn't lose weight. 6 weeks on keto to lose 200g was demoralizing. Then I did calorie counting with MyFitnessPal and ate at a 500 cal deficit, and I lost weight. I

Docker is the ultimate application format for Linux. It IS Linux. If you read a Dockerfile, you can replicate it on a fresh install command by command, it serves as doc too. For example if it says "FROM debian:bookworm RUN apt install

Why is this post flagged? I've yet to try code stuff with AI (even Copilot). How well do local models like Code Llama work compared to GPT? When I use ChatGPT, GPT 3.5 feels a decade behind GPT 4. Half the answers are flawed. It's
