tex0··on GitHub Code Search (Preview)
Running this kind of stuff costs serious money.

Of course they must see a way to make money with it in the long term.

Like they did with GitHub itself: as a data source for CoPilot ;)

tex0··on GitHub Code Search (Preview)
Like fixing a recently discovered severe security issues affecting a large number of repositories?

That would be terrible indeed. But it might happen. Good to have a powerful tool at hand in that case.

tex0··on Improve Git monorepo performance with a file system monitor
I don't know their use case very well.

Maybe Perforce. Or didn't MS have their own in-house SCM as well?

tex0··on Improve Git monorepo performance with a file system monitor
Yes. Or they could just a different kind of SCM that doesn't have these performance issues.
tex0··on Improve Git monorepo performance with a file system monitor
This serves as an example to me that git is - maybe - not the right tool for the job.
tex0··on Google Cloud: Major packet loss between multiple regions – Europe and Asia
What's an HA zone?
tex0··on The Future of the Gitlab Web IDE
Oh. I thought you were talking about a viable GitHub competitor ;)
tex0··on The Future of the Gitlab Web IDE
What was that called?
tex0··on Ask HN: Have you created programs for only your personal use?
I used to publish all my stuff on GitHub. But my current employer makes me jump through some hoops before I can do that. So I don't publish the stuff that build for myself anymore.
tex0··on Fuchsia IDL Overview
Why did they reinvent Protos again?
tex0··on Ask HN: Alternatives to 1Password
gopass.pw should work on Windows, too. It's a drop-in replacement for pass.
tex0··on Ask HN: Why should I trust password managers?
Same here. But then I wouldn't recommend anyone to do the same
tex0··on Go’s Version Control History
I'm getting more and more convinced that git is way too powerful/complex for most people.
tex0··on What to do if you get a question you've already seen in a coding interview
I agree. I have yet to see a candidate that has obviously seen my questions before.
tex0··on What to do if you get a question you've already seen in a coding interview
Don't let that hear your current or next employer;)
tex0··on Highlights from Git 2.35
Not sure if you're joking or not ^^.
tex0··on Highlights from Git 2.35
Is it only me or is git terribly complicated? How is average Joe (or rather: average coder) supposed to handle it correctly?
tex0··on Dev corrupts NPM libs 'colors' and 'faker', breaking thousands of apps
IMHO the by far most concerning part about this is GitHub blocking the original author.
tex0··on Passage: A fork of password-store that uses age instead of GnuPG
Really looking forward to age 1.1.0 so we can give gopass mature age support as well.

Stupid question: Are only YubiKeys supported or also other hardware tokens?

tex0··on Passage: A fork of password-store that uses age instead of GnuPG
Once age gets yubikey support we'll add that, too.
tex0··on Clever uses of pass, the Unix password manager
Correct. Gopass has very early age support. It fully works but the UX is not great (yet).
tex0··on Go Replaces Interface{} with 'Any'
Now the question is when it's available with GitHub Actions.
tex0··on CISA Director on Log4j Vulnerability
Someone should tell them that any system that it logging user supplied data can be affected.

Not only "user facing" systems. Not even a WAF can protect these.

tex0··on Improving GitHub Code Search
That will blow up the size of the index a lot. Need to be clever about this.
tex0··on Common Infrastructure Errors I've Made
That's a seriously good and honest list.

Thank you.

tex0··on Go does not need a Java-style GC
Debian Maintainers doing Debian Things.
tex0··on Stacked changes: how FB and Google engineers stay unblocked and ship faster
Sooo, like Gerrit?
tex0··on Google Outage in Europe
Hahaha. This one made me laugh hard.
tex0··on Grafana OnCall: an easy-to-use on-call management tool
Is there automatic planning of upcoming shifts and compensation accounting? Or do you have to do that manually?
tex0··on Ask HN: How do you manage your personal documents?
I've got myself a multi function printer with an adf. Everything that is in my physical inbox is scanned and put on my NAS.

There is a custom program running in a container that will feed any new doc to pdfsandwich (or similar OCR tooling), move the doc into a digital inbox prefixed with the current date. From there I can either leave it as it is (the date is usually good enough to find things) or - if I get to it - give it a proper name and put it into a folder structure (like some of the other responders).

The custom tooling also indexes all docs and provides my family a web interface to search.

Simple and effective.
