I’m not in a place to actually help as I’m on vacation: but since it’s a compile issue, if you posted a minimally failing-to-compilr version (no credentials) of your full YAML someone could conceivably be able to troubleshoot it

Can I vote for obsfuscators not holding a language hostage?

Moments before what in retrospect was inevitable, Jeremy realized he shouldn’t have crammed his rectal cavity with cheddar cheese that morning.

I mean, I’ve never seen a real platypus but I’m not going to use that as a justification for why they can’t exist.

I don’t know what to tell you. It’s a spectrum. I’ve worked in shops that claimed to be agile but to them, that just meant JIRA and story points. I’ve worked at places where agile meant having daily standups.

And I’ve worked places where there actually was a genuine attempt, and that was an awesome place to work.

I’ll rephrase them, except in good faith:

1. Talking directly to the people about the work is better than a 95 state JIRA pipeline

2. Document your finished working work, not every broken POC, because that’s a waste of time

3. If the contract isn’t actually going to meet the desires of your stakeholders, negotiate one that will

4. If you realize the plan sucks, make a better plan.

My company paid to have Kent Beck come to workshop with our Sr devs. I expected to dislike him, but he won me over pretty quick.

I don’t remember what it was, but someone was like “Kent, we do X like you recommend in the manifesto, but it creates Y, and Z problem for us”

And he was like “So, in your situation it isn’t providing value?”

Guy was like “No”

“Then stop doing it.”

It’s not hard. It’s the most fucking common sense shit. I feel bad for them because these guys came from a world where there were these process bibles that people were following. So they wrote like, basically a letter saying “if your Bible doesn’t serve you, don’t follow it”

And all these businesses dummies were like “oh look, a NEW bible we can mindlessly follow”

Academic Journals frantically spinning up botnets to retweet this

One is your education and one is your job. It’d be like me chirping someone with a geophysics degree who’s working at Starbucks.

Ah, an auditability audit.

It’s certainly something besides latitude. Western Canada grows hella tomatoes and that’s 49 lat at the bare minimum

Thank you so much

The sample size is at least a little bit bigger…

Some guy stole moon rocks (presumably still had moon dust on them) to bang his gf on them.

It depends VERY much about the content and invitees of the meetings.

If you’re there to give your expert engineering feedback, awesome. If you’re there to receive the information you need in order to provide expert engineering feedback, awesome.

So often, I find, meetings are too broad and end up oversubscribed. Engineers are in a 2 hour meeting with 10 minutes of relevance.

There are serious differences in meeting culture, with vast implications oh the amount of efficacy you can juice from the attendees.

I’m really confused about the arguments around this, being that things like apostrophes and hyphens have special meanings in databases.

Yes, they do… But there are incredibly mature standard practices around how to store and query this type of data so that it isn’t a problem.

Hyphens and apostrophes aren’t uncommon in surnames. Is anyone suggesting banning those?

I salivate whenever I hear about these ancient mega arthropods. Like, gigantic and armoured, whatever. But by modern standards, blind and incredibly stupid. And in that atmosphere you’d be constantly so well oxygenated. I don’t know why but I’m convinced these big fucks tasted like lobster.

That isn’t a stromatolites

The only question was the title, and the content of their post was answering their own question.

This post is just a blog post.

As a mechanical engineer turned software developer, I do consider the task to be fundamentally an engineering task.

It’s just that the willingness to forgive ineptitude in software is infinitely greater… So much so that the industry has completely normalized absolute garbage work.

It’s engineering, just with systemically terrible engineers.

TLDR; if, as OP mentioned as a desirable criterion:

Something that respect as much the gnu philosophy (so nothing like Github etc…)

Gitea might not specifically be the best self hosted GitHub clone to use.

I use it. I self host it. But if you’re prioritizing FOSS philosophies, there are other GitHub clones that would fit the bill.

It’s amazing that you want to enter this space, and I’d love to help you achieve your goals with every resource I have.

As you learn and grow, (Edit: correctly pointed out as sanctimonious)

I hope you’ll eventually consider augmenting your goal to include native species, which will bring the added benefit of maximally helping the ecosystems in which you are a part.
