There's a line to be drawn between "don't be evil" and "don't do evil". With such a huge organization, things slip through the cracks and accidents happen that result in bad things. But I find it hard to b

It means only put code in source hosting, not user data. That is, follow best practices with your repository.

That's because it's not actually project hosting, despite what the article may claim. It's a way to get your code onto the platform.

It did. When googlecode.com launched, it was an immediate market leader (keep in mind that it displaced the wretched sourceforge.com). When the new wave of source hosting (github, bitbucket, etc) made its way up, googlecode fell by the ways

The first one, sure, but all the others don't really seem like features of source hosting...?

No, GP was correct. It is intended as a way to get your source into the platform. They're private repos to which only people in your projects have access.

Source hosting is the only feature of GCP source hosting. It's literally just a way to get your code into the platform, nothing more.

Yes. Open source GCP projects are hosted either on github or googlesource.com, an unindexed place for git and codereview. (eg https://go.googlesource.com is where the go language is hosted). And keep in mind, googlesource.com is

Calling the GCP source hosting a competitor with github is nonsense. No public access to these repos, for one, so they're completely unsuitable for general project hosting.

According to the cousin comment by thaumasiotes, this is not true. It's just that Sunday comes "before" Monday, which is called day 1. ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9674622 )

Kubernetes is not an externalized borg. They are completely separate products that do more-or-less similar things. Similarly, dataflow is completely new code that does similar things. As far as I know, GCS, bigquery, and bigtable actually

So, I never trust users to give me advice on features to add. But I always believe them when they say something is difficult or confusing. Research should not be required to make a good CLI do what you want, provided you understand what y

No, nicksardo's understanding was quite correct. Slices are values, and it is impossible to return the same one, because value semantics don't work like that. The slice returned only points to a new array when the capacity is no

git submodules are sort of a pain to manage. I think they've more or less failed as a git feature.

Take a look at https://github.com/skelterjohn/wgo - it's vendoring in a way that 'go build' (and 'go get') still work :)
