You’re getting at the heart of Actions. Actions was never intended to be “CI” or any such vertical capability. It has always intended to be a platform that exposes capabilities like CI or packages etc out to the world, but the underlying serverless very flexible workflow platform is the bedrock upon which we want to build the future
My long held view that the only real ‘competitor’ to what I want github to be was AWS/major cloud infra companies and if you believe in that view along with me, you likely see what the why the past four years of github and the next few years of github make a lot of sense
And it even makes more sense when you squint just a bit and realize what codespaces + repos + actions (CI/security/packages + other things) + automated workflows would eventually do. Now imagine a bit further out into the future and what it would mean if we understood your production workloads a bit more
@danfox, sent you an email though commenting here too.
I'm the CTO @ GitHub. Would love to talk to you about this and other things we are building in this area at GitHub.
Feel free to email direct to jason at github.com
My son is autistic. He's 8. We had him tested when he was 5. He also has ADHD. If ever anyone cares about working with non-NT folks and those on the spectrum it's me. We moved to where we live specifically so we could get early intervention for him.
My five year old daughter might be on the spectrum, we are having her tested. She does have expressive/receptive language disorder.
Our youngest daughter, now 2, seems NT so far.
For the record on the original material. There's a chance the person was non-NT, as you suggest. However, that same percentage chance exists for at least three, maybe four, of his co-workers as well, the ones that were effected by this person.
I'm not dismissing your original statement. I do think it is harder for non-NT folks, even in tech. It's why my style is the way it is. If anything, I'm likely overly sympathetic to the non-NT folks given my situation.
I've written two other things that I often reference when talking about these topics that might be interesting. I hope you can appreciate my side knowing more about my personal situation and how that influenced and shaped my current views.

Easiest way to start is file a bug. There are a few ways to do that, but in this case one of the following two are great.
1. $ ubuntu-bug network-manager
This will gather information about your card and any crashes related to networking etc, send it to LP (Launchpad) and star the bug filing process.
Or
2. Go to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+b... where you can see if any bugs match what is happening to you. You can then say 'yes, this also effects me' by clicking near the top of the bug. If you don't see a bug that is right for you, you can file a new bug via 'report a bug' on the right hand side near the top of the screen.
Both ways will require an LP account (sorry!), but it just takes seconds to create.
If you just do one of those two (and give me the bug number), we can start taking a look. Obviously we'd love for people who have the time to test potential fixes, though we know this just isn't a realistic possibility in most cases. If, however, you do have the time and are so inclined, that is a great way to also help us figure out what is wrong and how to fix it.
Either way, having a Bug # is great and where we should start. Also, if you have a bug # and are still posting in those forums, having people 'me too' the bug raises awareness of the issue for us in Launchpad, meaning, the more people the bug effects, the hotter the bug and the higher it will be on our (or in this case, my) priority list. In this case, though, if you have a bug #, I'll add it to my list directly ;)
Can you detail the other issues you are having? I am interested in where Ubuntu causes you more sys admin problems and not less. Our goal is to make the easiest to use, best looking system possible.

Specific to my team, I'm looking for someone to keep up with X.org, Mir and the various graphics related packages: https://ch.tbe.taleo.net/CH03/ats/careers/requisition.jsp?or...
EDIT: I should note, nearly all positions are remote including the one on my team.
Some links to remember:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu https://launchpad.net/unity and https://launchpad.net/unity-2d
On each page there is a 'report a bug' link on the upper right.
Or, if you experience a crash, you can report the bug at the command line by typing 'ubuntu-bug' and a series of prompts will walk you through the data collection.
