Well, Github (free or not) had no CI until Github Actions, which was after the acquisition. Integration with things like Travis were already there and free.

Github raised the 5 repo limit to infinite in 2016 https://github.blog/2016-05-11-introducing-unlimited-private... And made private repos free after the acquisition https://github.blog/2019-01-07-new-year-ne

I don't have the diffs in front of me, but I'm fairly sure this predates the MS acquisition by quite a while.

I know you're joking, but an SE employee (I believe it was Nick Craver, who is now a former SE SRE) mentioned on Twitter a while ago that employees use database backups and spin up local instances for exactly this reason...

Can Gitlab CI use CircleCI workflows? There's less risk in just changing your VCS platform, rather than both your VCS and CI/CD at once, especially if you have to rewrite all your workflows. Obviously something like Dagger[1] solv

I think the question was more surrounding the thermal pads on things like the VRMs. My understanding (though full disclosure, I've never disassembled a GPU myself) is so long as you take care to not tear them, they should be fine.

I've only used Dolt once, but it was very helpful when I was working in an ML class on a group project. Previously we would commit gigantic CSVs to git, which sucked. Putting it in Dolt made a lot of the data exploration and sharing ea

Heh, that's an interesting strategy. My company primarily works with gmock, and I'm not certain you could do what you describe with gmock, but yeah that would work otherwise.

Go is a good example, too. Unlike C++ though, the distinction between something with dynamic dispatch (an interface) is a bit more explicit than in C++ (a class with virtual methods, which may not all be virtual). That said, in your example

TIL about that fallacy. That's a fair point. I guess it comes in a bit differently in C++ land, because the "you shouldn't" comes into what you decide to allow to be injectable (e.g. if your constructor only accepts the

It depends on your language and testing framework. In C++-land, for instance, you can't mock a third party library if they don't define virtual methods, forcing you to make a wrapper (an experience with this is what taught me this

I end up with vim bindings in VSCode at the present. It doesn't do everything but it does most things I want. There is neovim integration, but last time I tried it there were a bunch of glitchy things that didn't work right (I rem

The async chapter in Rust for Rustaceans was a great introduction. It leaves something to be desired because you walk away with it without knowing how to run any async code (it doesn't mention any runtimes, for instance), but it explai

A couple of my coworkers are perpetually offline on Slack, actually. It allows them to be more async.

Android kind of does. You can mark a certificate for "VPN and Apps" or for "Wifi". I can't remember if you can do it with CAs, but you can definitely do it with the dependent certs.

Yeah, I totally understand why Google did that (though, it's a WiFi provisioning app... it's literally an app that connects you to a previously untrusted WiFi network. I get you gotta draw the line somewhere but that's debata

I think for the example given on the page, given it seems to be a quick question, it's easy for it to seem a bit petty (and I might agree). The hard part for me is by responding, I have no idea if I'm walking into a 2hr debugging

This feature is one of the few things I miss dearly since moving to Linux as my daily-driver OS. There are command-line tools but nothing compares to Preview from what I've found.

The big one that I can think of is triggering our "packaging" pipelines. We have some packages published separately from our main releases (which are not published via CI), so we have to trigger separate pipelines for them. We cou

My employer just moved from Bitbucket (on-prem) to Github (cloud). I have to say, as much as I hated the Bitbucket review system, there's a bunch of things we run into with Github that just are surprisingly lacking compared to Bitbucke
