Microsoft has been known to get around sanctions:

The license in your repo is entirely meaningless when you grant an exclusive license to places like GitLab and GitHub to "display" your code.

Or is Google providing less useful data coupled with the fact I have to scroll down considerably to avoid advertisements with an ad blocker? Only to be met with reddit results...

I think you forgot the /s

Gambling has been known to be addictive.

The video is surreal, it looks like it barely bumps the bridge and 2 seconds later the entire thing is gone. I don't know what I was expecting, the bridge just looked extremely fragile, makes me wonder what other bridges are at risk of an event like this.

People are already raging that Reddit can't pay moderators, but that Spez takes more compensation than Tim Cook while his company reports losses. Reddit said it themselves, one similar website could take them out and that's exactly what I see happening once the landscape changes from community to profit which to your point is already happening given recent events.

If you're ever in LA, I recommend checking out the Getty. I'm by no means an art buff in any capacity, and honestly I thought going might be boring because I did the Getty Villa in Malibu when I was in elementary school and wasn't appreciative, but it completely changed my mind. Even if you don't like the art or the exhibits, the views of Los Angeles are amazing, probably better than Griffith in my personal opinion.

I think we should be looking for irregularities and investigate based on known accounting practices regardless of entity. A Church that pays taxes is just a business, and maybe they are already, but I'm not interested in religious institutions gaining fixed government representation (beyond what already exists) or becoming a theocracy.

PG&E caused the death of hundreds and the loss of hundreds of homes, and they've done it multiple times. Is there regulatory oversight because I'm not seeing it. They will happily cut corners in the name of profit even if it means killing people.

Elon is suing OpenAI for breach of contract but doesn't have a contract with OpenAI. Most legals experts are concluding that this is a commercial for Elon Musk, not much more. Missions change, yawn...

Can't a metal/aluminum cap be endlessly recycled? Looks more like a cost cutting venture versus a lets save the planet venture.

Exactly, GitHub claims to have 400M+ repos making this number 0.025% of repos. I'm sure they could get it lower but less than half of 1% is pretty damn good.

As a developer I have to do some due diligence about where I'm getting my data from. If I'm slurping in random repos because the name matches that's a people problem, not a github specific problem.

Back in the day you would hope for rar/par if you were downloading something big, like a program you couldn't afford but needed to try, I'll leave it at that.

I used to work with an old Sun Microsystems dude, he was an executive at the company I was at. We used to have these meetings every week and he ended up attending one. We had been trying to come to a conclusion for weeks on a specific piece of tech. He stopped the meeting dead in its tracks and said we're going to make a decision right now, if it's wrong, we'll learn from it, if it's right, awesome. Not making this decision is more costly than making the wrong decision.

I just remember thinking, finally, someone with some authority is getting this ball moving.

CDC says 1.35 million per year, this also includes pedestrian and cyclist deaths.

I'm happy to pay for reform, people make mistakes. Our prison system isn't about punishment or reform anymore, and you're right, in prison, you shouldn't have a bunch of this stuff available to you. We should be putting violent criminals in prison, that's certainly better then what we used to do. If you want to have them work to pay for their prison stay, I think that's fine.

We literally have homeless people committing crimes to go to jail because it's cleaner, warmer and safer. That how bad it is for some free people, being locked up has upside. Craziness...

Approx. 3700 fatalities a day globally while driving, and no one bats in an eye when it comes to getting in a car.

My last two stolen packages required the vendor to open a claim, I did in both cases and both vendors refunded me. Fedex wouldn't even entertain trying to help me.

I ordered a computer from Southern California, they shipped it to Texas, Florida, Maine, and then back to Northern California. My last two orders were just stolen from someone at FedEx. They got the shipment, but it never left the facility after that. Customer service is an offshore apology machine that can't help with anything. I used to prefer fedex, but the standard of service is so subpar I go out of my way to avoid them.

To be fair, many git maintainers are or have been github employees and git is officially hosted on github.

You're referring to an office/lab they built in 1998, lol. Pretty sure they bought in on this latest round...

Does this include the use of cmd+spacebar? Personally, I feel like I haven't had to open it outside of my search.

This code never worked but made it into production. What I see is a developer hucking garbage over the wall, not testing their own code, passing reviews assuming they exist, and eventually stopping the train in its tracks because they're more concerned with pretty commit messages. I also think this is beyond simple to catch early be it the editor, the pre-commit hook, or any other range of tools that could have and should have prevented this.

I'm not saying a detailed commit message is never warranted, I'm saying this fuck up doesn't warrant a short story let alone a prize for being overly verbose. BTW, I did a loc . on the repo I work in, came back with 7400000 lines of code. Does this mean I'm cool enough to be in your club?

The question I think needs answering is why we wouldn't do it. Obviously most people would love to have an extra 52 days a year to themselves to spend with family, do hobbies, handle personal business. Outside of greed or operational commitments, why aren't we doing this?

Why would I waste time reading this paragraphs long commit message when I can look at a diff and a 40 character headline and completely understand the issue? You think it's lazy, I think this is wasteful. Personally I don't need an epic story about making a one character change because your editor isn't configured to catch gremlins... it's just not that interesting.

The people buying github/actions are getting at least 10K minutes included as part of their EA agreement, and they can use their own runners for zero cost. I think most enterprises are more concerned with having their bits on a cloud provider, versus pricing, but that's my limited experience.

Teams is typically a free product with an MSFT EA.
