Good Lord. EDIT: Wait, I don't even understand how that can work, even in a broken way. Since I guessed 2500000 60 60=9,000,000,000, I guessed that a "second duration" is really just a wrapper around `3,000` (ms) or `3,000,00

I cordially invite you to look into the clusterfuck that is Go's treatment of date formatting. Everything else will seem clean and logical by comparison. Per https://golang.cafe/blog/golang-time-format-example.html

What is is that you don't like about that dub? Sounds perfectly fine to me. The only differences I could notice were: * Spike's voice is a little higher in English, which (IMO) works well with his light-hearted refusal to take any

/u/ufuk has already pointed how this comparison is flawed, but even if it were not - now do the same comparison of how much other companies donate to OSS projects.

This is a great idea, but unfortunately many runbooks can only be meaningfully evaluated in a situation in which they are useful. That is - you need to instigate an outage (ideally, in a controlled reversible way[0]) before you can "te
