No force on earth will convince her she didn't do it.
Now gran really thinks something is up
If your test suite takes 40 seconds, is it not quicker and easier to run locally than the overhead of another git commit to get feedback?
If I'm making a change and I want feedback from the test suite, of course I'd run it locally.
On CI it takes about 5 minutes to run.
My laptop which while not top of the line is fairly well powered (8core 32 gb) the fan starts spinning and slows down a bit whenever I run the suite.
I find both these times incredibly distracting and inefficient. It breaks my concentration, faster feedback would be really nice.
But seriously, what's going on with all the service disruptions? From slack to all of facebook to GitHub (who had 7 incidents in September). Maybe centralizing the whole internet into a few providers isn't a good idea after all?
Everything's tradeoffs, economies of scale for centralising- easy to blame the provider if a fuckup happens.
But when it goes down it stops everything; same issue with AWS, Azure's ADFS, Cloudflare, ad infinitum. Half the internet can go away at a moments notice or the provider can turn on you personally because an automated bot dislikes your username and decides to blacklist your company.
(is my bias showing?)
Anyway, Late September/Early October is rife with outages for as long as we've been running internet services.
People speculate that it's the influx of new sysadmins/programmers, but that's debated.
Is there any particular source for that or is it just something that you've noticed? Feel like I do see more around this time of year but would be real interested if there is data backing it up.
Just don't go 'all in' on one service without backups or some second plan.
Our whole business[1] relies on GitHub Actions functioning. It just sucks.
Github Action 2vCpu / 8 GB RAM
BuildJet Runner 4 vCpu / 16 GB RAM
Also, should probably be capitalized as "vCPU".
`host gist.github.com` returns - "Host gist.github.com not found: 5(REFUSED)"
Disabled adblock. Still same. I'm using from India.

By the way, just discovered a nice library to test GitHub Actions locally: https://github.com/nektos/act
Anyways, Twitter will be down next week. You've read it here first.
