We're both offering managed GitHub Actions runners - some of the differences include: - Depot runners are hosted in AWS us-east-1, which has implications for network speed, cache speed, access to internet services, etc. (BuildJet is ho

Yep, it's a good question! At the moment, my thoughts are roughly: GitHub's incentives and design constraints are different than ours. GitHub needs to offer something that covers a very large user-base, to cover the widest possibl

Not sure how common the use-case is, but we're using Ceph to effectively roll our own EBS inside AWS on top of i3en EC2 instances. For us it's about 30% cheaper than the base EBS cost, but provides access to 10x the IOPS of base g

I've seen a hybrid where you have a form with a button to confirm, but include JavaScript to auto-submit the form on load. For the crowd that has JS disabled, they can click the button, but otherwise it's one-click from the email.

Hey HN, I wrote this about how we've been reducing the time to start running container builds at Depot (YC W23) largely through optimizing EC2 instance start time - primarily we found that stopped EC2 instances start a lot faster than

Hey HN! We're launching a new cache storage backend for Depot today and wanted to share. Previously we stored container build cache on EBS volumes, where each customer project received its own EBS volume. That had some limitations, inc
